CFS: Photobook!! The Photographer and the Self-Published Book

I’m writing to request you spread the word regarding our November 18 – December 19 exhibition, PHOTOBOOK!! It’s our first annual juried photobooks show. I’m a true believer in the photobook to bring one’s work to the attention of the public. I think it’s a natural for the end of the year when people are shopping for Christmas gifts (hope so).
Here’s a link to info, guidelines, entry fee and application on our website
the basic info is:
