While deciding what to pack for my upcoming book events in DuBois, Force, and Pittsburgh, PA, I was delighted to get an email announcing that A Mighty Force is a finalist in the 24th annual Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Awards. Here’s an official statement about the awards program:
“As part of its mission to discover, review, and share the best books from university and independent publishers, Foreword Magazine, Inc. hosts an annual awards program each year. Finalists represent the best books published in 2021. After more than 2,500 individual titles spread across 55 genres were submitted for consideration, the Finalists were determined by Foreword’s editorial team. Winners will be decided by an expert team of booksellers and librarians—representing Foreword’s trade readership—from across the country.”
I’m pleased to be nominated in the biography category, alongside titles from university presses and independent trade publishers. This could help bring Dr. Elizabeth Hayes’s story to a wider audience. Winners will be announced in mid-June.
