<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Verdana">The Willa Award is given out to authors each year from the organization Women Writing in the West. </FONT><A HREF="http://www.womenwritingthewest.org/"><U><FONT COLOR="#0000FF" SIZE=2 FACE="Verdana">http://www.womenwritingthewest.org/</FONT></U></A><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Verdana"> I am recruiting librarian reviewers for the annual award. The process is that another panel identifies up to five books for each category, and then each reviewer is sent those titles, for keeps, in exchange for reading and reviewing the books according to a standard matrix. The books would arrive in May and the reviews will be due mid-July. They are happy to pay for reviewers dinner at the annual awards ceremony if you get yourself there, this year it is in LA.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Verdana">If this sounds interesting to you, please let me know. I need reviewers in the following categories:</FONT>
