Well, I'm petty. I'll admit this now. I have thrown my hat into the ring at the behest of no one. I voted myself best debut author for Login Accepted. I may not win or even pass round one, but I decided that if I can I might as well fail magnificently enough to be proud of! Why the Hell not?
I wrote myself in on the Goodreads Books of the year under Debut Author/novel. I found someones link and followed it. Edit: You do need a Goodreads account to vote! Here's the main link. Specifically the Debut Author Vote (Login Accepted Please?)
I don't see anything so I'm guessing that you need a goodreads account for this, right? (since I don't have one)
No biggie. I'm not going to win, but if I'm not going to win, I'm not going to win the biggest thing I can't win.
