An Unforgettable, First-Class Experience for Authors! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Receiving the physical Crystal Glass Open-Book Award from The Prestigious International Hope Book Awards was an absolute milestone moment for me and my family. The trophy itself is a stunning piece of art—the craftsmanship, elegance, and attention to detail are magnificent and even more impressive in person. Holding it provides a deeply meaningful sense of validation for the vulnerability it takes to share a personal story.
Johanna and her team have truly succeeded in creating a top-tier experience that honors and celebrates writers. Even my mother, who is notoriously hard to impress, was deeply moved by its beauty and presentation. If you are an author looking for a community and an organization that genuinely values your voice and legacy, I cannot recommend PIHBA enough.

What a JOY and a BLESSING it is to know Johanna. Meeting her at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention this past February was truly one the HIGHTLIGHTS of my entire time there. I can't speak highly enough of her.

Working with Johanna Vendel and The Prestigious International Hope Book Awards has been an incredible experience. From the moment I became involved, I felt welcomed, respected, and genuinely appreciated as an author.

Johanna’s passion for helping writers is evident in everything she does. She has created more than an awards program. She has built a community where authors are recognized, encouraged, and celebrated for sharing stories that make a difference.

I am honored to have received recognition through the Hope Book Awards, and I appreciate the kindness, professionalism, and dedication Johanna shows to every author. If you are looking for an organization that values your work and treats authors with respect, I highly recommend The Prestigious International Hope Book Awards.

Thank you, Johanna, for believing in authors and for creating opportunities for our voices to be heard. I look forward to supporting this amazing community for many years to come.

As a 5 Times award winning author, I have seen a lot of the Hope Award Vision behind the scenes and it is becoming an award-winning reality. CRAWL is what her and her daughter are doing. WALK is all the marketing and research she is doing, creating each award category and the logos and all the copyright and Trademark work. RUN is when you receive the Nomination and you are told that you will be one of the very first Finalist and then reality walking into the amazing ball room like a fairytale ✨️

I highly recommended any Author to submit to the Johanna Maria Vendel HOPE BOOK AWARDS

I was a guest on Johanna's podcast it was such an amazing interview. She made me very comfortable sharing my story. The love and support from Johanna was outstanding and continues to be even after the podcast. I genuinely believe more author's need to get their stories out in public and doing podcast interviews is the answer.
