In response to requests from our participants, the 2009 New York Book Festival is offering a special, detailed critique of your submitted work by our judging staff and the ability to convert your file to a digital format for sale through Amazon and many other online outlets.
CRITIQUES:
The critique will examine your book from a literary and commercial perspective, detailing the thought process behind our considerations and offering suggestions for style improvements and marketing efforts.
These candid, forthright assessments can be used for your own commercial purposes or merely as a guide to our judging process.
The critiques are available in two editions:
1) EXPRESS: Your book will be evaluated after it enters the judging process and delivered via e-mail to you within four weeks of our e-mail notification of its receipt. The cost is $150.
2) REGULAR: Your book will be evaluated by our judges and delivered via e-mail within one month of the festival deadline. The cost is $75.
You may pay online using paypal:
E-BOOK CONVERSION:
