Congratulations Outskirts Press EVVY-Award Winners

Every year, the EVVY Awards recognize excellence in independently published books, and the 2008 EVVY Awards is no exception. The ceremony and awards banquet took place at the Red Lion in Denver, Colorado on Friday, March 28th and was hosted by Dom Testa of the #1 rated radio morning show in Denver, the Dom & Jane Show.

In its 14th year, the EVVY Awards are held by the Colorado Independent Publisher's Association. Entries are judged by a panel of independent judges, all experts and professionals in their respective category fields.

Entries were open to all Colorado publishers. At the end of the night, Outskirts Press received more awards than any other publisher, 8 in total. First, second, and third place award-winning authors will receive a framed award recognizing their accomplishment and 50 stickers to affix to their books. All Outskirts Press award winners receive book inserts to highlight their award and are eligible for consideration for national exposure in magazines like Writer's Digest, The Writer, and Poets & Writers.
