OFFICIAL EEW MAGAZINE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD RULES
Author Eligibility Criteria: All books considered must be written by one first-time author who is female, African
American, and Christian. Judging is based on literary merit, not sales, prior media coverage, or publisher.
Author must be a U.S. citizen and all books must be published in the U.S. during the eligibility year (within the
past 9-12 months). NOTE: Works written by multiple authors will not be accepted.
Genre: Full-length books of fiction and general nonfiction are eligible. Books that feature collections of short
stories, essays, and poems, by (1) one author, are eligible.
E-Books: E-books are NOT considered eligible for EEW Magazine’s National Best Book of the Year Award
unless released in conjunction with a traditionally published book. Each E-Book submission must include:
information detailing where the book is available for download (or a disc / cd copy of the book) and a printed
and bound, 8 1/2 x 11 inch copy of the book, including publication date information. E-books not submitted
with both availability information and a printed copy will not be considered.
Eligibility Disputes: In the event of a disagreement on terms of eligibility, EEW Magazine’s Nominations
Committee will decide whether to consider the published work for an award, and the final decision will stand.
Submission Deadlines: EEW Magazine receives hundreds of submissions so publishers and authors are
urged to submit books AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE based on the open submission dates published here. Any
author/publisher who meets EEW Magazine's requirements may enter books for consideration. If the
Nominations Committee receives a book later than its submission deadline, it will be automatically deemed
ineligible. A book may be submitted as a finished copy, if available. A proof, bound galley, and bound
manuscript are also acceptable provided the book will be available in finished format before January 1.
Entry Fee: There is no entry fee for any title submitted.
