Complete List of
Book Awards for Authors, Writers, and Publishers
So, you got your book published or you self-published
your book. Finally! Now you can sit back and watch the sales come in
and the positive reviews. Wrong. You have to do some serious book
marketing and promotion. There are over 300,000 books published
every year in the United States alone. Without any promotion, how are
people going to know about your novel, biography, memoir, or book? One
great way to try and get some buzz and promotion going for your book
is to enter it in competitions for book awards. Winning an award for
your book can go a long way in terms of positive buzz about your book.
It is also an effecitve means of promoting and marketing your book.
Below is a comprehensive list of the book competitions you can enter
your book in. Best of luck! If I have missed any, I'll add them to the
list (pnj @ bauuinstitute.com). Together we can make this a great list
for all authors, writers, and publishers.
