Entries open today for the nation’s most prestigious book
awards: the 2014 New Zealand Post Book Awards and the 2014 New Zealand Post
Children’s Book Awards.
Publishers are invited to submit books written by New Zealand
authors and published in New Zealand in the last year. E-book entries are
welcome as are books submitted by self-publishers. Awards Manager Amie
Lightbourne says all entries must meet the awards’ eligibility rules.
“Books entered into the awards need to be widely available to
New Zealanders, either on sale in bookstores throughout New Zealand, or
available online from two or more leading online retailers”.

The awards are an exciting and high profile event on the
literary calendar, celebrating New Zealand’s finest writers, illustrators and
their books. Each year finalists and winners are chosen from over a hundred
entrants to celebrate and promote excellence in writing and illustration in New
Zealand. Books entered into the awards are judged on the quality of
writing, research, illustration, audience appeal, design and production values.
