The IRDAs put your book in the hands of some of the most powerful people in publishing. With the rush by traditional publishers to sign them and their noteworthy bestselling status, there’s no longer much doubt that indie authors can be both commercially and creatively successful. All that was left to do was create a credible vehicle by which to find them. That’s where the IRDAs come in.
The IR Discovery Awards gives you the opportunity to have your book judged in relation to work done by your peers.
There were over 391,000 books self-published in 2012. That’s a whole lot of company (and competition!) for any author. A professional book review will help set your title apart from the rest, increasing your book’s chance for discoverability.
If your title is IR Approved (4 or 5 stars), it will be included in IR’s Curation Services, which to date include Scribd, the ebook subscription service and Bibliolabs, the resource for libraries. IR also recommends indie titles to the HUFFINGTON POST and USA TODAY.

“I’d like to say THANK YOU and give a big (virtual) bear hug to you and IndieReader for selecting 99 JOBS for the Discovery Award, for the 9 Summer Reads, and now thanks to the award I’ve got a starred review from Kirkus!”
