Awards season

It's that time of the year again, when journalists compete for recognition by their peers. Every year the contest deadlines arrive...and every year most of the journalists I know don't get around to entering their work.
Here's the application for the Crain Awards and the entry form for the Timothy White award, courtesy of American Business Media.
Some trade journalists are eligible for the SABEW Best in Business contest. Take a look at the rules before Feb. 1. Trade reporters are also eligible for some categories in the IRE awards. (In the interest of full disclosure: I worked at both SABEW and IRE while at the University of Missouri-Columbia in the early 1980s.)
The deadline for the ASBPE's Awards of Excellence is Jan. 21.
You're already too late for the Neal Awards, but there's still time to get a seat at the March 16 luncheon.
