The Indie Author Book Fair was designed by Independently Published Authors to showcase the outstanding books available from their fellow indie writers.

They oversee and project manage all aspects of their book, from the hiring of professional editors, to cover designers and typesetters, to ensuring their books are available on the various print-on-demand distribution methods that allow their titles to be available globally.

 

So why have their own fair? Unfortunately, this method of publishing is sometimes seen as an outlier in the traditional world and a lot of "Traditional" fairs and festivals do not welcome indie authors in to their events.
