Description
A Continental Pathway to Meaningful Readership
The ACABA Annual Author Membership Registration is not merely a fee—it is a purposeful enrolment into a living ecosystem designed to move African Christian books from shelves into hands, homes, schools, and hearts across the continent.
Through the Read With Me initiative under Mama Africa Book Box (MABB), and in partnership with CLC Kenya, this registration ensures that your book does not wait endlessly to be “discovered,” but is intentionally placed before real readers.
We keep the process plain and painless—like good editing, not like surprise fees.
Who This Registration Is For
This registration applies to:
-
Books submitted to ACABA between 2021–2025 that scored 80% and above, or
-
Previously submitted books that have been improved and resubmitted.
If your title falls outside this window, it may still be a wonderful book—this particular registration bracket simply does not apply to it.
