So if you believe your project is completed, don’t wait too long and submit it to the third edition of BUP Book Award contest!

Our jury will create a shortlist of the 20 best submissions at the beginning of April, 2022. The winner will be chosen by BLOW UP PRESS editors and announced on April 14, 2022.

Good luck!
