"Lee Hayes was the 2004 winner of the National Black Book Award for Passion Marks" I could not find anything on-line and was hoping someone could tell me more about the award.   Cynique "Cyniquian" Level Poster Username: Cynique Post Number: 12591 Registered: 01-2004 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)

I don't put anything past self-promoters nowadays.   Hen81 Veteran Poster Username: Hen81 Post Number: 128 Registered: 09-2007 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)

I'm also impressed that there was something about the awards on this site -- thanks to Chris Hayden. I do not recall reading that post. If I'd read it I'm sure I would have promoted the awards... The 2006 awards are described in an article here: http://www.urbanspectrum.net/entertainment/book-review.htm It is not clear that the awards are still being given out.
