We are excited to announce that the 2010 PEN USA Literary Awards will now honor the work of writers in 11 separate genres, which includes a new award for Graphic Literature. The winner of the first Graphic Literature Award will go to Matt Fraction, for his Outstanding Body of Work.

The Awards will be presented at the 20th Annual Literary Awards Festival, known as LitFest, which will be held at the Beverly Hills Hotel on the evening of Wednesday, November 17, 2010.
In addition to the literary awards, PEN USA’s LitFest gala will feature several other honors, including the Freedom to Write Award, the Lifetime Achievement Award, the Award of Honor, and the University of California Exceptional First Book Award. Recipients of the literary awards were chosen by a distinguished panel of writers, editors, critics, and journalists. Winners were selected from among more than 500 entries. Each winner will receive a $1,000 check at LitFest.
