A Caring and Personally Invested Awards Team

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.

A Truly Awesome Experience!

I wanted to (once again) express my gratitude to the entire BIBA team for winning one of last year’s Best Indie Book Awards for my last collection Miserable Adventure Stories. I think it’s highly likely that last year’s award caught Skyhorse’s attention and moved them to offer me a book deal for the series. And for that, I am extremely grateful to BIBA!

Good luck with this year’s candidates! It was a truly awesome experience being one of last year’s winners!

Testimonial for the Best Indie Book Award

It’s with immense gratitude that I pen down my appreciation for the team at Best Indie Book Award. The relentless support and promotion of my book have been beyond exceptional.

The spotlighting of indie authors has been incredible. The frequent features on both BIBA’s Facebook page and Instagram channel have not only given my book visibility but have also connected me with a wider audience of passionate readers.

Winning the 2023 Best Indie Book Award was an unexpected surprise and a deeply fulfilling moment in my writing journey. The recognition has added a layer of validation to the countless hours spent crafting each word and refining the techniques shared in “Breaking Through: The Secrets of Bassai Dai Kata.”

To the entire Best Indie Book Award team, thank you for championing independent voices in the literary world. Your commitment to celebrating diverse narratives is truly making a difference.

Highly Recommended

“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!”

A Coveted Honor

I can’t adequately express my gratitude for the honor of this win. As an independent author, standing out among others in my genre gives measurable value to the hard work involved in producing a novel. Thank you BiBA.
