Submit an Iowa Author

The Iowa Center for the Book Iowa Author Project is intended to be a source of information about authors of books who are currently living and writing in the state of Iowa.

We are interested in both you as an author and in the book or books you have written.  Our goal is to provide as much useful information as we can about published books by current Iowa authors. 

For the purpose of this site, we define book as a print-on-paper, bound publication.  We define "authors currently living and writing in the state of Iowa" as authors with an Iowa zip code.

Please fill out the form as completely as possible. If you need additional information or wish to discuss this project contact the Coordinator of the Iowa Center for the Book.
