Beginning in January of this year, over 1,000 authors worldwide were nominated for their work in one of the following 12 categories: Business & Economics, Children's & Middle Grade, Clean Romance, Fantasy & Science Fiction, General Fiction, Health & Wellness, History & Historical Fiction, Memoir & Biography, Mystery & Thriller, Religious Nonfiction, Self-Help and Young Adult.

Authors of all sorts—indie (self-published), traditional or collaborative published—were considered for an award. Entries were reviewed and evaluated based on popular vote, social contribution and overall presentation (cover, content, flow, and originality) by a panel of select judges.

Respectful of current COVID-19 restrictions and choices, the event was held both in person and as an innovative experiential conference, sharing all in-person aspects virtually. Blake was invited, along with the other top ten finalists in the Children's and Middle-Grade category, to present her book synopsis at the Author Elite Awards Red Carpet Sessions. Saturday evening included a Red Carpet Meet and Greet followed by the Author Elite Awards Ceremony.
