I am so excited about the 1st Annual Self-Published Author Christian Book Awards! As a Self-Published Author who is also Christian, I am uniquely qualified to take a hard look at our genre and applaud our God-inspired work and seek to encourage all of my colleagues to take their efforts from word of mouth book sells to potential national and international book sells.
So we begin our formidable efforts by assembling talented book industry professionals and peers to serve as Judges in the awards program and announcing the winners at the preeminent book industry event, in North America, Book Expo America, in May 2009. Both these well-planned strategic moves position each winner to receive increased visibility, credibility, industry exposure and adds a legitimacy to the Self-Published Author industry.
All the books entered have excellent titles, content, beautiful covers and if I were one of the judges they would all win! However, we want the process to be credible and without bias and have gathered those who will use a non-biased Judging Criteria based upon a 100% point scale to determine the Award Category (Gold, Silver, Bronze).
The winners will be notified by April 30th providing each with an opportunity to make plans to attend the BEA and the Book Award Reception, to be held May 28, 2009 at the Antioch Baptist Church Banquet Hall. All winners will receive two (2) complimentary tickets to the Reception, Awarded their Medal and given 25 Medal Seals for placement on their books. Winners will also receive discounted passes to the BEA.
In addition, to show appreciation for all the book submissions, DBC will promote each book on its website for six months at no cost to the author-which provides free promotion and will drive business to your website. It's a win-win for all involved!
Blessings and Success,
Rev. Deb
