Awards Submission Strategy

Research and planning to help you identify book awards worth considering and prepare submissions correctly.

Choosing awards worth your time.

Book awards vary widely in scope, cost, and relevance, and submission requirements can be detailed and easy to miss. Awards strategy is about finding the ones that genuinely fit your book, and preparing submissions carefully.

Phoenix can research suitable awards for your book and help you prepare a submission that meets each program's specific requirements, subject to each award's own judging process.

What Phoenix can help with

  • Award Research

    Identify book awards relevant to your genre, category, and eligibility.

  • Eligibility Review

    Prepare entry materials in the format each award requires.

  • Category Selection Guidance
