IndieReader Discovery Award Winners ~ 2012
On June 3, 2012, at Book Expo America (BEA), a trade show taking place in New York City, Darcie Chan, New York Times bestselling indie author of “The Mill River Recluse” and Amy Edelman, founder of IndieReader, announced the winners of the first annual “IndieReader Discovery Awards”.
The judges on the IRDA panel included top people in all areas of the publishing industry, in concert with IndieReader’s trusty reviewers. Judging was based on the quality of writing and the originality of the story. There was a first, second and third place winner in each of the fiction and non-fiction categories, in addition to winners in various sub-categories, indicating that each book has received at least a 4-5 star review (out of 5 stars).
I was thrilled to be there when Darcie Chan announced the awards and even more thrilled when I learned that Maria's Duck Tales was named the Winner in the Environment cateogy.
My little book has now won seven awards in diverse categories. What an exciting journey it has taken me on! Yea!!!
