Hi all! I'm the Literary Programs Coordinator at The Mark Twain House & Museum. We're currently looking for volunteer readers to help select the next annual Mark Twain American Voice in Literature Award winner. This prestigious award honors excellence in a work of fiction that tells a distinctly American story, preserving the legacy and spirit of Mark Twain’s writing. (More information)
Volunteer readers help to select our long list from all of our submissions. There's no requirement for becoming a volunteer reader. All you need to do is:
• Choose at least two books from our list of submissions (choose yourself or have them assigned to you).
• Access books through your local library, bookstore, Kindle, e-book, or even free PDFs available on our website.
• Grade each book and complete a brief review form. If you think a book deserves acclaim, your input counts.
The reading period is from February to May. To become a volunteer reader, reply to: [omar.acevedo@marktwainhouse.org](mailto:omar.acevedo@marktwainhouse.org).
Feel free to share this opportunity with others who might enjoy it (book clubs welcome). Help us honor the next great American storyteller!
