Choosing a Category

There will be four categories open to both fiction and non-fiction children's books, plus two categories for adult books. Oh, and this year, for the first time, we are having a separate Poetry Category and Short Story / Novelette Category.

Category 4

Category 6

The books can be hardback, paperbacks or ebooks. If your book is an e-book, no problem, send us a digital file (preferably PDF) and we can print it off this end.

Category 7 & 8 (AUDIOBOOKS)

Category 7 (Children/Young Adult), Category 8 (Adult)

You can enter this category as an 'add on' category e.g. enter your book in, say, Category 4 (YA) plus, if you have produced an audio version of the book, also enter it in Category 7. Or, if you wish, you can solely enter Category 7 or 8 with the AUDIOBOOK and no other category.
