      • Celebrating Chanticleer Int’l Book Awards Program Levels of Achievement

        The 2024 CIBAs Ceremony is April 5, 2025 at CAC25!
        Don’t miss out!

        Congratulations to each and every one of the Authors

        whose works advanced to the

        FINALIST Level of Achievement

        in the 2024 Chanticleer Int’l Book Awards program! 

        Now let’s look at where we came from to make this happen.

        A pyramid showing the different levels of CIBA Achievement

        Everyone who made it to the Long List had something that our readers saw as worthwhile, a reason to lift them out of the slush pile and post them to our site. The competition becomes steeper every year and any bit of the way up this pyramid is something to celebrate!

        Making it to the FINALIST Level is indeed  something to crow about!

        Be sure to share your advancement on social media, as well as tagging us (@ChantiReviews) to help increase your digital footprint. This is our Twitter and this is our Facebook.

        We have notified each FINALIST by email, by posts on the Chanticleer website, and on social media. Digital badges are available starting with the Short List. If you need a digital badge reflecting your tier level, please email info@ChantiReviews.com with your division and rank, and we will send you one as soon as possible.

        Congratulations to the FINALISTS!

        Advancing to the prestigious FINALIST stage is a huge accomplishment!

        Being a Finalist means that your book truly stands out. The decisions of who moves on here are always difficult as the quality is so readily apparent. Thank you to everyone who is a Finalist for making the CIBAs a joy and a delight with your incredible words!
