What People Are Saying About BIBA

Thanks for being present in every process, and thanks for believing in the magic of my poetry book “Pirate Love Unchained”. You guys are genuine, professional and inspiring.

“We live in a time when reading is less popular than scrolling. Thank you, BIBA, for reminding the world that personal growth is impossible without books (and has been for centuries!).”

“Thank you, Best Indie Book Award. I’m always so humbled by your relentless support of my efforts as a writer.”

“Dedicated to the literary field, helping authors get the recognition they deserve.”

“The staff is great! The Award is very professional in its appears and the organizations outreach is great for marketing new authors.”

“BIBA seems to have its act together.”

I’m honored to receive the 2023 Best Indie Book Award for best short story collection. It’s difficult to succeed as an independently published author, and this award is a validation for all of the time and effort that each of the winners put into their books. Thank you, BIBA for the recognition!

“A wonderful way to celebrate indie authors. “

“They are super friendly and a fantastic opportunity for my authors to submit their books for a chance to get noticed.”

My experience with the BIBA® has been entirely positive, and I will always be grateful for the waves of reader interest, industry attention, and media exposure that my win has generated for my recent book project. However, for me, the most important aspect of the judging and awards process was seeing how truly caring and personally invested the staff are, as evidenced by their consistent efforts to make the contest a pleasant, constructive, and rewarding experience for all participants involved. The BIBA® team’s attentiveness to detail, their obvious appreciation for the work of independent authors, and their genuine desire to seek out and recognize excellence in the realm of independent publishing has made this contest a worldwide leader, and I am thus truly proud to have been selected as the winner of the 2024 BIBA® in the Non-Fiction: History category.

“I was honored to win the 2017 Children’s Award, and ever since then BIBA has done an excellent job of maintaining a connection and supporting me (and all other) authors in incredible ways. They constantly retweet my big announcements and work and help to get the word out about most things that I do! I’m not sure if this is typical of indie book awards, but regardless it is incredibly supportive and kind. Highly recommend them for their support of indie authors!”
