Dan Poynter’s Awards For eBooks Calls For Submissions

Dan Poynter has opened submissions for his global eBook awards. Now through June 30, 2011 (midnight, Pacific Time) you can enter your book in the awards. eBooks must have been released anytime before July 1, 2011.

The Global eBook Awards are open to authors, publishers, illustrators and photographers. The contest is open to English language eBooks from authors, publishers, illustrators, photographers, self-published or traditionally published, regardless of company size.

The site does not yet say who the judges are, but it does say that, “eBooks are evaluated as objectively as possible with scores on several items. Judging panels will consider cover design, content quality, layout when not straight text, originality, etc.”

Finalists will be announced July 20, 2011. The award ceremony will be held in Santa Barbara, CA, Saturday, August 20, 2011.
