What is the Editor’s Choice Program?

Recognition is the path to success for our bestsellers! Our Editors Choice Recognition Program rewards and supports high-quality titles and authors dedicated to reaching their goals. 

How can my book qualify for Editor’s Choice?

Step 1: You must publish your book with a publishing package that includes Editor’s Choice Eligibility to qualify for this designation.

Step 2: Books that receive a positive Editorial Evaluation, our primary assessment of the editorial quality of your manuscript, are sent to our Editorial Board for careful consideration to receive the Editor’s Choice designation.

What are the benefits of the Editor's Choice designation?

  • Placement of the Editor's Choice icon on the front cover of your book*
  • Placement of the Editor's Choice icon next to your book title in the iUniverse online bookstore
  • Placement in a separate Editor's Choice section of the iUniverse bookstore

*The Editor’s Choice icon will be placed on the cover of books that receive the award prior to going live. Books that receive the award after going live will be subject to a cover re-design fee if authors wish to include the logo on future printings.
