This will be quick. I just posted all of the 2009 Agatha Award Nominees. (I guess I won't be getting the early-bird worm!)
CONGRATULATIONS to ALL of the nominees!!!
I think that if you take a look at the lists, you will recognize quite a few of "our" authors, and look forward to reading the new ones. Remember that the Agatha Awards are probably the most "Cozy" of all of the mystery book awards… No gratuitious violence, no "gross-out" goriness, and no explicit "adult situations"… so to speak.

Congratulations to the Finalists for the 2009 Nero Wolfe Awards. The (yearly) Black Orchid Banquet will be taking place in early December, so we will have to wait until then to find out which of the three finalists is chosen as the Winner… Let's face it, though, all three of them are winners for being finalists!

Sorry about posting this so "after the fact"… I kept thinking that I wanted to post the 2009 Anthony Award nominees and winners, who were announced at Bouchercon 2009 last month. Another case of better late than never…

There is no excuse for being so late in adding the 2009 Edgars (Edgar Allan Poe Awards) >>> I'm sorry it has taken me so long. But, better today than not at all!
Here are the 2008 Agatha Awards that were given out at the Malice Domestic convention this past weekend. I have gone ahead and included the list from 2007 also… ss a sort of reminder of all of the great Cozy Mystery authors who have recently been nominated. (Not to worry, though… I have the list of all of the winners and nominees from many years on the site!) All of the nominated authors are winners in my book!

Finally! I just posted the Agatha Award Nominees for 2008, and there are a lot of our favorite Cozy Mystery Authors on the lists of the wonderful nominated authors and books. I was surprised to see that I already had pages for all of the five Best First Novels' authors! (Wow! I had first heard of them from Cozy Mystery site readers' recommendations.)
