The second is too static, not including the viewer/reader into the game.

]]> Comment on Doris Kenney Marcotte speaks on her Best Book of the Year award by How the Outskirts Press Best Book of the Year finalists are determined « Brent Sampson: CEO of Book Publishing & Marketing Firm OutskirtsPress.com http://selfpublishingnews.com/2011/05/12/doris-kenney-marcotte-speaks-on-her-best-book-of-the-year-award/#comment-4846 Fri, 25 May 2012 12:39:26 +0000 http://selfpublishingnews.com/?p=5266#comment-4846 [...] In the past week we have posted the results of the 18th Annual EVVY Awards, which is the contest held by the Colorado Independent Publishers Association. Outskirts Press won 15 awards, the most among all participating Colorado publishers. Winning an EVVY is a pre-requisite to winning our own Outskirts Press Best Book of the Year award, now in its 3rd year. In 2010 we published a book called The Beads of Lapis Lazuli, by Doris Kenney Marcotte, which went on to win a 2011 EVVY Award for Fiction and become a finalist for our contest.  In the weeks following the finalist announcements, Doris engaged in some aggressive “author platform” leveraging and social media marketing efforts, which paid off — her book was named the 2010 Outskirts Press Best Book of the Year, recognizing the best book we published in 2010. Her interview is here. [...]

That’s a great question!

EVVY is the name of the award and is so named in recognition of the founder of CIPA, Evelyn Kaye. With it normally appearing in all caps, I can understand how that can be a bit confusing. Also, to answer the second part of your question – CIPA (Colorado Independent Publishers Association) is behind the awards.

We can’t wait to see your two books!

Take care!

I am working on two books currently and have been following your page to learn more about self-publishing.

It would be helpful for newbies like me to be told what EVVY stands for and who is behind it. This would let the reader know what sort of accomplishment these awards demonstrate and from what entity.

Thank you
