The Publishing Triangle is now accepting submissions for its 2011 fiction, nonfiction, and poetry awards, given for books published between January 1 and December 31, 2010. Each year, we present five competitive awards to lesbian and gay authors: the Randy Shilts Award for Gay Nonfiction; the Judy Grahn Award for Lesbian Nonfiction; the Audre Lorde Award for Lesbian Poetry; the Thom Gunn Award for Gay Poetry; and the Edmund White Award for Debut Fiction. The Ferro-Grumley Literary Awards foundation presents its annual prize for LGBT fiction in conjunction with our awards ceremony, so you can submit candidates for that award as well.
All of these literary prizes include honorariums: $1000 each for White debut fiction and nonfiction; and $500 each for poetry and Ferro-Grumley fiction.
The deadline for nominations is December 3, 2010. If you are nominating more than one book, please make photocopies of the nomination form before you begin. There is an entrance fee of $35 per title.
