CONGRATULATIONS ON WINNING THE PRESTIGIOUS
INTERNATIONAL FIREBIRD BOOK AWARD.
Up to three winners per category are possible based on each category’s judging criteria and cumulative scores from two independent judges. In many cases, the winners are only one point apart and are shown on the website in order when applicable.
If you are the first person listed, you may refer to yourself/your book as a ‘first-place winner.’ If you are the second person listed, you may refer to yourself as a ‘second-place winner.’ If you are the third person listed, you may refer to yourself as a third-place winner.’ Alternatively, you may use the word ‘winner.’
Categories showing only one winner often indicate that competing entries in that category did not meet the minimum accumulative judging score to be included as a finalist.
If you entered multiple categories, you might find that you are listed first in one category, listed second in another category, or in some instances, not listed in categories that may have submissions with higher scores than yours, or if the judges felt the book didn’t quite fit the submitted category.
Each category is a stand-alone contest, often with different judging criteria. For example, you may have entered your book in the ‘book cover’ and ‘memoir’ categories. You could be a winner in the memoir category but not in the book cover category because the judging criteria for those categories are different, and your score may not be high enough to win in the book cover category.
Our judges invest a lot of time and thought in the judging process to allow you the greatest opportunity to receive a winning placement.
