EINPresswire/ -- The Independent Press Award, a leading champion of independent authors and publishers, and AMPlify Audiobooks, a trusted provider of audiobook production and distribution services, are excited to announce a new partnership. This collaboration will streamline the submission process for the annual Independent Press Award book contest, offering authors a more efficient way to share their work with the esteemed judging committee.

The primary goal of this partnership is to ease the administrative burden on independent authors, allowing them to focus on what they do best: creating great books. The new arrangement will integrate AMPlify Audiobooks' service platform as an alternative, user-friendly channel for authors submitting their titles to the Independent Press Award.

"We are always looking for ways to better serve the independent publishing community," said Gabby Olczak, Sponsor of the Independent Press Award. "Working with AMPlify Audiobooks means authors who use their services can now easily manage their award submissions alongside their production needs. It's a natural fit, allowing us to focus on the high-quality content the Independent Press Award is known for, while also embracing modern submission methods."

AMPlify Audiobooks is dedicated to helping independent authors maximize their reach through professional audiobook production, distribution, and marketing. This new collaboration extends that mission by connecting their author base directly with one of the industry's most respected book awards.

"Independent authors deserve every opportunity to be recognized for their incredible work," commented Becky Parker Geist, Founder and CEO of Pro Audio Voices. "Our platform is designed to support the entire lifecycle of an author's book, and simplifying the awards process is a valuable extension of that support. We're proud to partner with the Independent Press Award to give our authors an easier path to potential recognition."

The new submission channel is effective immediately for the upcoming 2026 Independent Press Award cycle, which has its final submission deadline on December 15th, 2025. Authors can look for specific instructions on how to leverage the Pro Audio Voices system for their award entry on award-rules.

This partnership underscores a shared commitment to elevating the independent publishing sector, promoting excellence in writing, and providing independent creators with the tools and recognition they need to thrive in a competitive market.
