Note of Interest

We will be setting up a yearly literary award named "The Bloom Award" to celebrate the life of Mildred Bloom, Matriarch of Blooming Tree Press. This award will be for unpublished authors only. Each year's award will consist of a different genre, age group and imprint. This award WILL result in a publishing contract for one lucky winner. (Disclaimer: if all parties can come to an agreement.) 
 
We are still working on the rules and details. More information will follow in the fall of 2008. Thank you for your patience.
