Event:

SFWA’s Indie Author Committee is pleased to announce our first in a series of Indie Author Town Halls. SFWA’s mission is “to promote, advance, and support science fiction and fantasy writing in the United States and elsewhere, by educating and informing the general public and supporting and empowering science fiction and fantasy writers.”

Indie authors have found great potential in being able to publish our own novels directly to the retailers like Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, and Kobo (not to mention create audiobooks and more). With that potential has come some hurdles, including communicating with giant technology companies to solve problems that develop. SFWA would like to be a voice of advocacy with the retailers for indie authors.

The first Town Hall was held Thursday, November 10th at 7 pm EST/4 pm PST. We want to hear from all independent authors — what are the knotty problems SFWA can advocate with the retailers to solve for every indie author? Contact indie-authors@sfwa.org to get involved.
