It wasn't until I started trying to post all award nominees that I came to realize just how many book awards there are, especially in genre fiction. The Spinetingler Awards are awarded by Spinetingler Magazine, and are apparently open to voting by anyone who clicks on the appropriate website. Tomorrow is the last day to vote for these awards.
