Romance Slam Jam Reader Survey

Romance Slam Jam's 2010 Readers of African American Romance Survey
Established in 1995, the Romance Slam Jam has a long history of recognizing what Nikki Giovanni describes as "The Power, Passion and Pain of Black Love." With its tradition of respecting and celebrating African American authors and our readers, it is only fitting that the Romance Slam Jam takes the lead in increasing awareness in the publishing industry of the African American literary market. Too often, the publishing industry provides only anecdotes or theories regarding who we are; where we are; what we want; and whether we have the numbers to support a wide variety of literary genres. It's time we spoke for ourselves. That's why we've developed the 2010 Readers of African American Romance Survey.

The link below will launch the survey. Please take a few moments to complete it to the best of your ability. Then, once you've submitted your responses, please tell a friend - or two - to stop by and help us get the word out about the readers of African American romance. The survey ends July 31, 2010. Once the survey results are tabulated, we will post the results to the Romance Slam Jam Web site and distribute a press release summarizing the survey to key contacts in the publishing industry and the media.

Thank you in advance for your assistance in spreading the word about readers of African American romance.

Regards,

Romance Slam Jam
