Lulu Blooker Prize

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lulu Blooker Prize is a literary award for "Blooks" (books based on blogs), inaugurated in 2006.

It is sponsored by Lulu.com, a print on demand publisher, and the name is a pun on the long-established Man Booker Prize.

An overall prize is awarded, based on the winners of three subsidiary categories: non-fiction, fiction and comics.

The opening of the 2007 award was announced on July 25, 2006, and the closing date for entries is January 15, 2007. The judges will be Paul Jones (chair), Arianna Huffington, Julie Powell (last year's winner), Rohit Gupta, and Nick Cohen.
