>> What's involved in handling the award? Just collecting names and sending them out for voting? <<
I was originally thinking that the manager for each category would track the nominations, create the LJ polls for voting, and then announce the winner. With further thought, I think the manager should make the "nomination open" post for their category. Now that certificates are planned for the winners, it occurs to me that such things are usually signed by someone in authority, so it would make sense for the category manager to sign the certificate for that category.
>>If so, I can do it (I'll exclude myself from the running even though I donate money to projects).<<
I appreciate the offer, but I really want to have each category handled by someone who is not eligible to be nominated for that category in 2009. (That's why I'm not just managing all of them myself.) You're eligible to be nominated for Fiction, Poetry, Art, and Patron ... I'm not sure about Other Project.
However, you can still help with this award by spreading the word about it so that more folks can participate.
