DA BWAHA

For those of us who know sweet fuck all about basketball but love us some romance novels (and prizes!) behold the awesomeness of DA BWAHA. The Smart Bitches and Dear Author are hosting their second annual Dear Author Bitchery Writing Award for Hellagood Authors. It's the Big Dance for a field a 64 reader nominated novels in a variety of genres.

Just like that other March Madness and its basketball-aholics, DA BWAHA allows romance writers and readers to fill out and submit brackets based on their personal hunches and (dare I say) research and statistics. You can bet your sweet buns I'm all over Amazon and B&N and review sites for comparisons within the various genres. There's a Sony Reader 505 at stake here, folks! Ruthless. I shall be ruthless!

Oh, and the Smart Bitches and Dear Author Ja(y)nes have put together some amazing discounts with Harlequin for all of their nominated books. Fictionwise has put all the e-book versions of DA BWAHA nominees on easy to navigate page.

Will the book of the year belong to the perennial favoriteNora Roberts? (La Nora! I prostrate myself before your greatness!) Or will it be a Cinderella story for a YA author like Suzanne Collins? The suspense it slays!

So get your brackets inand browse the nominees for some hellagood reads!
