Looking for a chance to gain some recognition or something good to Twitter about? Or how about a chance to win a hefty $200 cash prize? Well here’s your chance. It’s not too late to submit your book for the 2015 BAIPA Book Awards! But don’t procrastinate—the deadline is coming up lightning quick—on Tuesday, June 30!
Any book published in 2013 and 2014 and not previously submitted for a BAIPA Book Award is eligible. Books in all genres are welcome, including fiction and non-fiction, in either print or e-book format. Every submission will be reviewed by judges and evaluated with scores given for writing style, editorial standards, cover design, interior design, marketability and overall assessment. This is a great opportunity to get an evaluation and feedback on your book.
Please spread the word—let your fellow writers know about it, and if they’re not already BAIPA members, they can join when they submit their book for the award.
So what are you waiting for?

One of my favorite things about BAIPA is its culture of generosity, the willingness — even eagerness — to share what we have each learned in the process of bringing stories to life. We provide educational programs, networking, marketing opportunities, encouragement, and information on industry vendors and services. And lots of one-on-one advice and mentoring.
We welcome all who have an interest in making connections within the world of independent publishing and learning more about how to publish and sell their work successfully. Together we are raising the standard of independent publishing and helping our members thrive.
Do join us!
