Vote for The Quills
Friday, September 7th, 2007The best description of The Quill Awards can really be found on their web site:
The Quill Awards are the only book awards to pair a populist sensibility with Hollywood-style glitz. They are the first literary prizes to reflect the tastes of all the groups that matter most in publishing— readers, booksellers and librarians.
The Quills Voting Board, which consists of 6,000 booksellers and librarians selected by invitation only, weed out the best of the best into the 19 categories, with 5 lucky titles per category.
However, the winner of the coveted Book of the Year award is selected by votes from readers like you. Readers have one month to cast their vote at www.quillsvote.com for #1 starting Monday, September 10, and ending on Wednesday, October 10.
Are you surprised by the list of nominees? Shocked, horrified, delighted, thrilled, unaffected? Who would you vote for (even if your pick is *not* on the list)? We’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!
