Back in March, CultureFeast.com featured my article: “More Award Contests for Independent Authors and Publishers.” As part of my commitment to help the self-released author find success I am posting this article as a brief reminder that you still have time (though not much) to submit your title to the 2008 BEACH BOOK FESTIVAL hosted by JM Northern Media LLC.
This book contest is specifically designed for self-released fiction & non-fiction books with publication dates of January 1st, 2000. So, if you missed other contests because your title has already exceeded their required publication dates, dust off a copy and get it ready for submission.
There will be one grand-prize winner who will spend a week at the Larimar St. Croix Writers Colony in the US Virgin Islands! And yes, you can bring a guest!!! Not only that but you will receive $1500, a flight to Atlantic City, NJ and a publicity campaign. There will also be awards for the best book author, designer and publisher of the year.There are 15 categories to enter this year but you must hurry. The postmarked deadline for this contest is April 25th. The entry fee for this contest is $50USD.
Remember, as I have said in the past—contests are a way of getting your book in the hands of readers, judges and enthusiast who are passionate about self-released titles. Not only that but winning or simply placing in one of the many contest specifically targeting independent publishers and authors, is a great way to build your books reputation.Best of luck to you this year…
and remember…
I believe…because you believe!
