Stephen King, Doris Kearns Goodwin and former Vice President Al Gore were among the nominees announced Tuesday for the second annual Quills Awards — people's choice prizes trying to catch on with the public.
The awards will be handed out at an Oct. 10 ceremony, hosted by NBC anchor Lester Holt, at the American Museum of Natural History. Admission will range from $1,000 for a single ticket to $75,000 for a "Platinum Sponsorship."
Starting Tuesday and through Sept. 30, voters can make their picks online at http://www.quillsvote.com and at http://www.quills.msnbc.com.
King was nominated in the science fiction/fantasy/horror category for his novel, "The Cell."
