Women of Literatae,
Thank you so much for getting your title recommendations in! Sorry I hounded you a bit. I know that this is a busy time of year, but you really came through. We wound up with 18 titles this cycle.
You're getting a few extra days to vote. I have all of this ready a few days early, as the weather and my foot have conspired to give me lots of time in my chair. Plus, I wanted to get this done before my birthday!
Here's what I've put together for you. Votes are due by online ballot by midnight on January 7. Fill in the Volunteer Grid as you see fit. If you have any problems with any of the links, please let me know so I can adjust settings.
The slide show of Fall 2022 Nominees is now available. See all the titles, book jackets, publisher summaries, comments from nominators, and Fayetteville Public Library, Washington County Library System, and Amazon availability, plus Thriftbooks availability for a few. They are divided into a Fiction and a Biography, Memoir, & Nonfiction section. In an attempt to present them objectively, I arranged them by author.
You may need to click the present (or does it say slideshow?) button in the upper right corner to view the presentation. Then use the enter key or click your mouse to step through the slides. If you want to return to an earlier slide, use the left arrow key to go back. The escape key will get you out of the presentation at any time.
Scratch Paper Ballot: If you're like me, you need to decide on paper before voting on an electronic ballot. Print this ballot for a list of titles in the same order as the slideshow. To fill out the online ballot, you will need to rank your six choices 1-6, with 1 being your top pick and 6 your bottom pick.
Online Ballot: Once you have decided on your six choices and ranked them 1-6, use this online ballot to vote. Remember that you will not rank titles other than the six you have selected. I've included ranking of the titles so that in the event of a tie, we will not have to have a run-off.
Volunteer Grid: Sign up for house, reviewer, and dessert. Of course, all of this is subject to the course of Covid19.
