It is time to nominate books published in 2011 for the 48th Annual Georgia Author of the Year Awards.
Our guidelines have been revised and updated to reflect the changing market and publishing trends. You will find that you can nominate an ebook if it is not print published. Children's categories have been consolidated. Fiction now includes a short-story category. The nonfiction genre has been refined and defined to remove ambiguity. It should make our competition better than ever as we approach the 50 year mark of the Georgia Author of the Year Awards.
