  | | American Audie Award Finalists | |  |  | posted by sadmin on Tuesday March 02, @04:31AM ( Printer Friendly Version.| Email this article) |  |  |  | AlexMc writes "The Audio Publishers Association has announced the finalists for its 9th
Annual Audie Awards, honoring excellence in audio publishing." | |  |  |
 |  | A total of
125 finalists in 27 categories made the cut. A panel of 100 judges
culled this list of contending titles from over 500 initial entries.
Audio titles eligible for the award were released between November 1,
2002 and October 31, 2003.
Winners will be announced during the Audie Awards black-tie gala, which
will be held Friday, June 4, at the Winter Garden Room in the Harold
Washington Public Library Center in Chicago. APA members and their
guests, including a varied roster of authors and narrators, will be on
hand for the festivities.
Audiobook listeners can feel like part of the Audie process, too, by
entering an interactive contest on the APA Web site
(http://www.audiopub.org/ ). Beginning April 1, visitors to the site can
listen to sound clips of the finalists and vote for their favorites in
each category. Everyone who enters the contest will also be entered in a
drawing for a Grand Prize of an audiobook collection.
