Congratulations to Julie Broad on her stellar non-fiction book “Self-Publish & Succeed!" The book is a master class in the art of self-publishing as well as in compelling yet didactic storytelling.  There’s something very special and meta about the way she’s able to educate and instruct while walking the talk. The book covers a vast range of topics including the writing, editing, and marketing process. It also includes some incredible and often inspirational examples. One of these stories includes how Broad had overcome being harshly rejected by a major publisher only to prove them wrong by becoming an Amazon #1 best-seller (an extreme rarity normally only achieved by elite authors and large publishing houses).

Julie Broad was an experienced and successful Canadian real-estate agent who longed to do something new. She decided to become an author. Her other books like  “The New Brand You” and “More Than Cashflow” were also massively successful, often ending up on the same best-seller pages as well-established authors like Dan Brown.

“Self-Publish & Succeed” was chosen as the Outstanding Creator Awards’ Best Non-Fiction Book of the Year because of the author’s masterful ability to help and educate readers while also making the reading experience consistently interesting and  entertaining.

You can get “Self-Publish & Succeed” on Amazon including on Audible: https://amzn.to/3F4qZTu!

Ajerry Akene is a Nigerian poet and a radio presenter for 93.5 FM ASO Radio on which he discusses Nigeria's youth and education. He holds a diploma in electrical engineering and a degree in chemistry.

Akene is the author of two books of poetry available on Amazon: "Love Me Forever" and "The American Presidents." "Love Me Forever" contains some of Akene's most thoughtful and beautiful poems, filled with heart and emotion. "The American Presidents" is more direct and intended to be educational. It is especially impressive because it demonstrates a level of understanding of US history that even many Americans lack.

He is currently working on releasing two new books of poetry in 2022 titled "A Fairytale of Love & Romance" and "The Unfairly Life."

For these impressive works of poetry, we have awarded Ajerry Akene the honorary Outstanding Creator Award for Poetry!

Kendra Dantes is a singing, songwriting prodigy who fell in love with music at a young age. She is proficient in multiple instruments and comes armed with a powerful voice that seems to know no limits. She also writes many of her own songs! You may have heard her music recently in Lucifer season six episode one on Netflix, which featured her amazing song "Dirty Hands!"

Dantes is also the 2-time winner of the Sac's Got Talent competition in Sacramento, California with her most recent win coming after an incredible performance of "Prisoners Don't Cry."

The Outstanding Creator Awards recognize Kendra Dantes for her outstanding musical talents with two honorary awards:

1. Outstanding Creator Award for Music, Best Original Song: "Rattle the Stars"

2. Outstanding Creator Award for Excellence in Music & Video Creation for her Music Video "Fallen"

Dantes wrote "Rattle the Stars" when she was only 13, inspired by the book series "Throne of Glass" by Sarah J Mass. It was later adopted as the love theme for "The Destroyer of Worlds" by Steven Seril.

"Fallen" was inspired by the "Six of Crows" and "Shadow and Bone" series by Leigh Bardugo. The song and now award-winning music video were produced with the help of Myra Gleason (who also supplied vocals), Year XXVI Studio, Paul Kimsal, and David Andrew. The music video features the impressive vocals and lyrics typical of Dantes with stunningly impressive display of costume and cinematography.

Congratulations to Kendra and associates on your awards!
You deserve it!

Krimson Rogue is a booktuber (a YouTuber who focuses on reviewing and discussing books) notable for his series "The Book Was Better" which compares movie adaptations to the books they're based on. His five-part series "A Book Review of Empress Theresa" gained special attention for its distinct snark and comedic timing (among other things) as well as the problematic text itself (by Norman Boutin). Krimson has since been invited to discuss the despised book on various shows. The series now has millions of views, being considered Krimson's magnum opus.
