In the Running for a Stonewall Award

I'm pleased to announce that The American Library Association's Stonewall Book Awards have requested copies of In Search of the Magic Theater for consideration.
Each year, the Rainbow Round Table (RRT) of the American Library Association (ALA) honors books of exceptional merit with significant LGBTQ+ themes with its Stonewall awards. Eligible books must be new publications in North America in English copyrighted in 2022. The Barbara Gittings Literature Award Committee evaluates adult fiction as defined as any novels, short stories, poetry, and dramas/plays.

Titles for adult 2023 awards and honor books will be announced at the ALA/RRT Social during ALA’s 2023 January Midwinter Meeting. The books will also be honored at the Stonewall Book Award Presentation during the ALA Annual Conference in June 2023. Awards consist of a commemorative plaque and a cash award of $1000; winners of honor books receive a certificate.
The award is announced in January and presented to the winning authors or editors at the American Library Association Annual Conference in June or July.
