ForeWord Magazine's BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD FINALISTS ANNOUNCED



The best ideas have always come from independent thinkers, and we at

ForeWord Magazine believe this maxim holds true for written ideas as well.

Six years ago, ForeWord Magazine's Book of the Year Awards was established

to bring increased attention to the literary achievements of independent

presses and their authors. The editors of ForeWord are pleased to present

the following titles as finalists, and congratulate the authors and

publishers of these exceptional books.



For those of you planning a trip to BookExpo America this year, plan to take

a break and join us as we announce and celebrate the 2003 Gold, Silver and

Bronze winners as well as the Editor's Choice Prizes for Fiction and

Nonfiction. Notable guest speakers will discuss the merits of working with

small publishers.
