East Anglian Book Awards 2024

Congratulations to the authors and publishers of the books shortlisted for the 2024 East Anglian Book Awards! 

The EABA awards are always hotly contested.  They are open to any books written about or set in East Anglia, or written by East Anglian based authors – and of course we are in a region where a lot of writers live, so even getting shortlisted is a massive achievement.

This year there are three books in our distribution list that are shortlisted.  As ever Poppyland Publishing features with two of the three: Different Drums in the History and Tradition section, and Sir James Neville in the Biography and Memoir section.  And we have one other book in the list which I am especially pleased about: Shop on Wheels is a delightful little book with a brilliant cover and well deserves to be amongst the winners.

Also congratulations to our friends at Mascot Media for getting in the list with HJ Jackson: Drawn to Print.  As with all their books it is superbly produced – and we have recently been able to add it to our range.
