Now celebrating their 5th year, The National “Best Books 2008″ Awards honors outstanding mainstream and independent titles.
This is a pretty cool award to win, I must say, having won a Best Books 2006 award myself for my cookbook, Glorious One-Pot Meals, in 2006. It can be great it is for your publicity efforts to be an “award-winning author” of an “award-winning book.” Talk about a boost to your credibility!
So, here’s what they promise:
—MEDIA COVERAGE FOR EVERY ENTRY: Enter before September 30, 2008 and receive a two-month full-color listing on USABookNews.com which includes your color book cover, a brief paragraph about your title and a hyperlink to your website. Fantastic coverage for the upcoming holiday retail season! The National Best Books Awards are the ONLY Awards Program in the nation that offers direct coverage to the book buying public for every entry.
—AFFORDABLE ENTRY FEE: $59.00 per title/per category. Over 140 active categories to choose from.
