*I've read these.
(I think it's important to note that these awards have a specific criteria for judging, and they must be nominated with a fee by their publishers.)
Lord, thank you for each one who writes for your glory. Come close to all who desire to serve you with their writing and let them/us know you are with them/us every step of the way. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
