The Nonfiction Book Awards accepts year-round submissions for traditionally published and self-published books and ebooks. To enter your book for award consideration, please complete the following steps:
- Review our Entry Guidelines here and make sure you understand them. Your submission indicates you agree to the Entry Guideline terms.
- Purchase with credit card payment here ($300 for the first category, $150 for each additional category). Or you may opt to mail a check. Note: Members of the Nonfiction Authors Association receive a discount off entry fees. Visit your member home page for details.
- Submit your complete entry application here (Google form). You can also upload your book interior in PDF format and your book cover image with this form. If you don’t have these files available, you can still complete the rest of the application.
We will contact you within two business days to confirm receipt of your application. If you do not receive confirmation of receipt of your application, please send us an email to verify your application made it through to us. Award status notification typically takes 8 to 12 weeks once we have received your application and book files.
