YA Debut Award

YALSA (the Young Adult Library Services Association) announced a new award for first-time authors writing for teens called the William C. Morris YA Debut Award.  The award can be given to fiction, nonfiction, poetry, short stories or graphic novels, but the author must not have published in any format before.  Sweet!  A whole new award to speculate about, and even better, this one will get everyone reading new authors.
