In a completely selfless act to inform the public, I wanted you guys to know that nominations are now open for the Eugene & Marilyn Glick Indiana Author Awards. This program seeks to recognize the contributions of Indiana authors to the literary landscape in Indiana and across the nation. If you liked a book by an Indiana author (like, for instance, Half-Assed: A Weight-loss Memoir) you can nominate that author for the Emerging Author award here. You can submit a nomination online or by downloading, printing and mailing a PDF. The deadline is April 8, 2009.

BTW, the ISBN number for Half-Assed: A Weight-Loss Memoir is 1580052339. The author’s contact information is:
