Due to an earlier-than-expected wrap-up of the review process for all 2019 season books, we’ve decided to push up our announcement of finalists to tomorrow (Sunday, August 11) at 9PM Eastern.

As a reminder, being designated as a finalist means that the book has scored high enough to win an MWSA medal (Gold, Silver, or Bronze).

We plan to announce our finalists via video on YouTube and Facebook. Also—technology permitting—we’re going to try to do a live “Watch Party” from our MWSA Public Page on Facebook. That way, you’ll be able to make comments or ask questions as the video is playing.

Here’s the link to our Facebook Watch Party: https://www.facebook.com/MWSA.MembersPublic (scroll down and look for the “Watch Party” notification)

To watch the video anytime after 9PM Eastern on Sunday (or in case we have problems with our live “Watch Party”), you can watch the YouTube version here: https://youtu.be/7OhEt8kF3B8

All finalists—books and authors—will appear on our 2019 Season page shortly after the video announcement ends. We will also email all authors who’ve submitted books this season to let them know whether or not they were selected as finalists.

Good luck!
