Need A Literary Award To Help Promote Your Book? Buy One Here
Prizes have now taken the place of reviews as "the means by which many people now decide which books to buy, when they bother to buy books at all." So supply meets demand: we have the National Best Book Awards (resemblance intentional), which has "150 active categories" and for which every book entered (fee $69 per category) becomes a finalist.
