Indie Authors
There are so many great books out there! Many of them are by well-known authors, some of them household names even among those who read little. But, there is a vibrant community of lesser-known authors, independent, self-published, or published by a small press. Who's to say that your next favorite book could be written by one of them?
​
This is not a comprehensive directory, far from it! Others have attempted wider promotion of indie authors, and more power to them for doing so. What I offer here is a list of such authors whose books I have personally bought and read, in the order in which I first read them. Maddening, huh? See my Bookbub or Goodreads pages for detailed reviews.
If you're interested in my writing, you might find something else here you like.
