book award links: 5 under 35

this weekend, i came across a book award for upcoming writers: “5 under 35” - 5 young authors with debut novels. funny thing is that the award web site has bios, but no forwarding links, here the webpage:
The National Book Foundation - 5 under 35 fiction selection for 2008

curious as i am, i now did some googling, and came across some entertaining short stories, interviews and book reviews of said 5 authors - i gathered the links in a blog post, here:
