Choosing between Digital Placement and Virtual Participation

DprimeLit Editorial Desk · 6 April 2026 · 4 min read

Digital Placement Participation at $250 puts your book into the festival's featured listing and permanent portfolio, with your cover, title, country, genre and biography, plus the promotional cycle that runs across the festival's channels during your feature month.

Virtual Participation at $420 includes everything above and adds the live element: a recorded conversation or reading published to the Live Videos page, a place in the discussion series, and a session date scheduled individually with you.

Digital Placement suits authors whose priority is visibility and a permanent, linkable home for the book — useful when you are between releases or building a catalogue presence.

Virtual Participation suits authors with something to say out loud: a new release to introduce, a theme worth discussing, or a reading that carries better in voice than on the page.

Both routes are allocated in the order they are confirmed, and the account manager can talk the schedule through before you decide.
