Four new award categories have been added to the Christian Indie Awards for the 2019 Awards. These new categories—Mystery & Suspense, Business/Finance, Self-Help, and Poetry—will allow the Awards to honor a broader variety of outstanding Christian books produced by small publishers and independent authors. The Awards will be offered in 18 categories for the 2019 year. Nominations are now open.
Any small publisher or independently published author can nominate books for the award. Books must be published in 2017 or 2018 by a publisher or author with annual revenues of $450,000 or less. Nominated books must be Christian in nature and intended for the Christian marketplace. All nominated books must be printed in English and for sale in the United States.
Nominations must be received by November 15, 2018.
