For self-published authors, winning a book award can lead to:
- New opportunities for national media coverage
- Introductions to literary agents, bookstores, and distributors
- New sales and reviews across multiple platforms
- New recognition and more
If you are self-published or planning to release a book independently, consider submitting your work for an award. Yes! Your self-published novel, memoir, children’s book or collection of poetry could be the recipient of an industry-recognized award. Dreams are great! Making them reality is better.
