You've written an article that doesn't say a thing. Are you in the agent business or something? I don't know whether the award is good or bad. All I know is that the publishing industry is incestuous. Publishers use agents to screen manuscripts. All agents want is previously published writers. Frankly, I don't know how new writers get discovered, unless they already have some sort of tie. I guess that's also why most of what's published is self-indulgent, contemporary crap.
