You can enter in one or all of the categories (Fine Art, Editorial, Commercial) and there’s even an option to create and submit your book (via blurb.com) entirely online. There’s a $35US entry fee but the grand prize certainly make such a nominal fee worth it. The rules do state that no books published by commercial publishers or hand-made books will be accepted. But if you already have a book you’ve self-published then you’re in the running.

In addition to the Grand Prize, honours will also be handed out for Category Winners, First Runner-up, Second Runner-Up & Honourable Mentions.

The top prize winners will also be invited to attend the awards celebration and meet-up in New York this Fall.
