IT’S ROYAL TIME

The Royal Dragonfly Book Award Contest is a worldwide book competition that began in 2011 and honors excellence in all types of literature, recognizing creativity and hard work in 67 categories. We do not impose a limit on the year of publication for entries, which means winning a Royal Dragonfly Book Award can breathe new life into your book's marketing strategies and give it renewed attention and appreciation by the industry professionals and readers alike.
