Dr. Pria Anand won this year's PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award for "The Mind Electric: A Neurologist on the Strangeness and Wonder of Our Brains." The judges' citation said: "This is science writing at its best: wisdom, insight, and clarity that does not sacrifice poetry or beauty.”

What kind of unhinged writing habits lead to a book series like Game Changers and a TV phenomenon like Heated Rivalry? "I'll be like, let's just start having the characters have a conversation and see where it goes," said bestselling author Rachel Reid on the red carpet at the 2026 #PENGala.
