The 4th Annual Zibby Awards!

Nominations are open now through December 2nd

Calling all authors and publicists! If you’ve had a book come out in any format between November 15, 2023 and November 15, 2024, then you’re eligible to enter the 4th Annual Zibby Awards! But hurry. Nominations close December 2nd! Scroll down for details.

I started the awards in 2021 (announced by Publishers Weekly) to celebrate the under-celebrated parts of the book (think: best spine design) and then modified the categories to align with our uniquely curated shelves at Zibby’s Bookshop, Santa Monica (the “Zibbacle system”). I wanted to find another way to draw attention to great books in addition to my podcast. (If you haven’t listened lately, please do!)

Please see all the details below and enter! Tell your author friends. Add it to your Facebook groups and WhatsApp chats. Spread the word!

Hope to see your submissions come in soon!
