In an effort to make participation in the Book Award more accessible, I'm consolidating the relevant info onto this one post.

The Holy Worlds Book Award is an annual award given to books in categories such as: Best Fantasy Series, Best Intro Book, Best Stand Alone, Best Sci-Fi Series, etc (including YA versions of those categories).

Participation is as easy as reading books in these categories and rating them according to our system. A book must have been read and rated by at least two people to be eligible. Ratings are due in The Watchtower by Dec. 31.

You can pm me with any questions.

Here are some helpful links:

This thread says all ratings are due by the 31st, Tim. Do you still need people to turn in ratings?

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Works in progress:

The Diegosian Mark, 115,600 words (Preparing for Publication)

The Diegosian Warrior, 15,000 (In Progress)

Yes, or any for that matter. I am very disappointed in this project. Unless a whole lot of people turn in ratings we won't be having a book award.
