Independent publishers, take action. ForeWord Magazine is accepting entries for the 2006 Book of the Year Awards until February 15, 2007. Entries are accepted in most genres, and the Editor's Choice Best Fiction and Best Nonfiction awards include $1,500 purses.Visit http://www.forewordmagazine.com/awards/ to view 2005 winners and to register 2006 entries online.
If your books expand a reader's world, introduce a voice society needs to hear, offer practical knowledge where none existed before or simply entertain so compellingly that all distractions fall away as the reader turns the next page, they should be submitted for the Book of the Year Award.
ForeWord Magazine's Book of the Year Awards were established to bring increased attention from librarians and booksellers to the literary achievements of independent publishers and their authors. Our awards process is unique because we ask a jury of our readers, librarians and booksellers, to select their top categories as well as choose the winning titles. Their decisions take into consideration editorial excellence, professional production, originality of the narrative, author credentials relative to the book and the value the book adds to its genre.
ForeWord is the only review trade journal devoted exclusively to covering books from independent houses -- ranging in size from university presses publishing hundreds of titles per year to micro, POD and eBook publishers who may publish one title in a lifetime.
