Good news fresh off the internet presses: Mark Brazaitis’s collection The Incurables is a finalist for the 2012 ForeWord Reviews Book of the Year Award in short stories!

ForeWord says that its Book of the Year contest “was created to highlight the year’s most distinguished books from independent publishers. The awards announcement provides an additional publicity opportunity for publishers long after a book’s initial publication date. After months of perusing the list of submissions, librarians and booksellers eagerly anticipate this announcement of finalists—a valuable resource for discovering obscure titles from the world of indie publishing.” Over the next few months over sixty bookstore owners and librarians (some of our favorite people) will judge the finalists and announce the winner at the American Library Association (ALA) Annual Conference in Chicago in June.

Congratulations, Mark, on this well-deserved recognition!
