Adopt an Indie Month

November 2011: 'Adopt an Indie'

month

Many people feel there is still a stigma surrounding

self-published/small-press books but how many readers actually mind where the

book is coming from?

This experience is about bringing authors, readers and book bloggers

together to dispel some of the indie myths and show that if you're missing

indie, you're missing out.

What will people get?

Readers will be able to talk to published authors and learn about their

experiences
Authors will be able to find out what really matters to readers and if they

really care about the 'indie/SP/small press' labels
Bloggers can share their take – do they see traditional books as higher

quality? Does the publisher even matter?

In addition, as part of the 'Adopt an Indie' theme, readers will be able to

read and review one book from a selection available in order to see first hand

the quality that is on offer. In effect, they will 'adopt' that indie and be

able to ask more detailed questions about their work and get more of an insight

into the indie world.

What do you have to do?

Readers: register your interest here so I can let you know when you can start to register for

books etc (early October)
Bloggers: complete this form and I'll contact you within the next couple of weeks
