Why would you want to enter a contest with your book? It costs you some money and your chances aren’t very good.
That was my feelings until I entered the “Reader’s Favorite Awards,” contest. I think it cost me around $25.00.
The results turned out much better than I could have ever dreamed. I received a 5 star review, and was a finalist in the category of “Self Help.”
Because I was a finalist, I also received stickers to put on my book, “Signs of Hope: Ways to Survive in an Unfriendly World.” It is now considered an award winning book, and I have sold many books by being able to show my 5 star reveiws and have an award sticker on the book.
Don’t pass up this kind of opportunity. Check out the people who put on the award to make sure the are for real, and then go for it.
My $25.00 investment paid off in a big way through many more sales because of the 5 star review and being named a finalist.

What happens when life doesn’t go our way? What do we do when the clouds come and darken our day?
I have been there. I have had many disappointments and failures in my life. At one point I was overcome by all the trials and storms I had to go through, and was extremely depressed. I was to the point where I was sitting in my Ford Explorer, and considering suicide.
What stopped me, and changed my life?
As I sat in that rig crying my eyes out, I yelled out to God, ” I can’t take this anymore.” At that moment there was a calmness in my heart, and it was then I knew that God was saying, “It’s about time you cam back to me. Now let me carry you the rest of the way.”
God is never far away. If He is, guess who moved? My desperate prayer was heard and God saved my life.
Don’t ever give up. Always know that you have someone to turn to in your darkest moments.
Remember:
You are never alone.
You are never forsaken.
You are never unloved.
And above all…never, ever, give up!
