Every story begins with a voice brave enough to speak — and every year, the Aspiring Authors / BookGal Awards celebrate the voices that refuse to be silenced.
The 2026 awards season has officially come to a close, and what a powerful journey it has been. From heartfelt nominations to passionate voting and overwhelming community support, this year reminded us exactly why SCBookGal & Friends exists — to uplift authors, celebrate storytelling, and create a literary space where writers feel seen, supported, and celebrated.
This is more than an awards announcement. This is a celebration of purpose, passion, and the power of words.
✨ Honoring the Voices That Move Us
Each winner represents more than just a title — they represent dedication to craft, courage in storytelling, and the ability to connect deeply with readers. These authors have given us stories that made us feel, think, reflect, and sometimes even heal.
The Aspiring Authors / BookGal Awards were created to spotlight both rising and established voices, recognizing that greatness exists at every stage of the writing journey. Whether through fiction that transports us, poetry that speaks to our souls, or nonfiction that educates and empowers, this year’s winners have left their mark on the literary world.
🏆 Congratulations to Our 2026 Winners!
Today, we celebrate the authors who captured the hearts of readers and the spirit of our literary community:
Each of you represents the beauty of storytelling and the strength of creative expression. Your work reminds us that stories are not just written — they are lived, shared, and passed forward.
💬 Community Is the Heart of Everything We Do
At SCBookGal & Friends, we believe books build bridges. These awards are powered by readers, writers, reviewers, and supporters who continue to show up for one another. The nominations, the conversations, the votes — every moment reflects a community committed to uplifting literary excellence.
Through our podcast, author interviews, magazine features, and community events, our mission remains the same: to amplify voices and celebrate stories that deserve to be heard.
📖 The Journey Continues
To every nominee, finalist, and winner — thank you for trusting us with your stories and allowing this community to celebrate your work.
And to our readers and supporters: thank you for continuing to show up, engage, and champion authors who inspire us all.
