There continues to be a plethora of literary awards announced recently. Below are the links with a quick description as to what the award is for. Please remember to refer to the links in the introduction to this post [above] as this is an ongoing series with lots of information about how to use awards lists in general.
Take a look at the last one in articular because it is a one of a kind away that will work with a wide range of patrons.
