iUniverse Recognition Programs

iUniverse chooses only those titles that have the essential qualities of a professionally published book to be part of our Editor's Choice program. Books that receive a positive Editorial Evaluation are sent to our Editorial Board for careful consideration.
How You Can Qualify for Editor's Choice:
Publish your book through the Bookstore Premier Pro, Premier Pro or Premier Publishing Packages. Each of these packages offers a professional Editorial Evaluation, our primary assessment of the editorial quality of your manuscript. You may also purchase an Editorial Evaluation as an add-on service to the Select Publishing Package.
If your book meets high editorial standards, it will receive the Editor's Choice designation.
The Benefits of Editor's Choice:
- Eligibility to be considered for the Rising Star, Reader's Choice, and Star programs.
- Placement of the Editor's Choice icon on the back cover.
- Free Professional Art Direction for your book cover. (Available through Bookstore Premier Pro and Premier Pro only.)
- Featured placement in a separate Editor's Choice section of the iUniverse bookstore.
- Invitation to send contest entry forms and books to iUniverse publicity staff for entry into writing contests that authors cannot enter on their own.
- Eligibility to purchase the Publicity Success Kit, which contains detailed media contact information including producers' names, phone and fax numbers, preferences, and e-mail and mailing addresses.
Eligibility to hire an iUniverse Personal Media Publicist to create your press materials, pitch your book to the media, set up interviews, and seek book reviews.
