I received an e-mail this morning about changes to the Whitney Awards, judging committees, etc. I think this is a great step and the changes will make some needed improvements to the process.
Which is not to say that I think the Whitneys were defective before. No! They were/are wonderful and I whole-heartedly support the Whitney committees and their efforts to acknowledge and reward top notch LDS fiction.
Go, Whitneys!
Oh, sorry. Got carried away there. Go HERE to read the changes.
Although I wasn’t terribly well versed in the earlier Whitney rules, I have to say these changes look like good ones.
