DBT Literary Awards Contest

Make sure that your marketing has the greatest impact by entering your book in the DBT Book Awards.

2024 Contest Details

In our 15 years of experience in the book industry, we’ve seen that promotions of award-winning books are more successful than those without awards. Make sure that your marketing efforts are having the greatest impact by entering your book in the DBT Literary Awards Contest!

We begin accepting entries in March, the deadline to enter a book is November 5th, and the results will be announced by January 15th.
Prizes include a digital emblem (1st place, 2nd place, etc.) for you to proudly use in marketing your book, and every first-place winner will receive an additional prize, such as a cash prize, a free editorial review, a free book promotion, and more!
We offer dozens of genres, ensuring your book will be properly categorized (See our list of contest genres on this page for more details).
See our FAQ page for more information about our literary awards contest, our judging process, and the prizes.
Our affordable entry fee is $30, and for a limited time you may get a discount if you enter your book along with a promotion via our promotions page.

You will submit your book file and additional details after payment
