Independent bookstore Indy Reads Books is an avid supporter of local authors and encourages book signings, readings, and other events as opportunities for authors and readers to connect. Scheduling an event is as simple as completing the online form says Director Alyssa Starr Newerth. While Indy Reads Books has a great community following, they do rely on the authors to help drive traffic into the store to support the events. Authors that promote their events through social media, newsletters, and their author website do have the best turnout. New authors especially should start local with their independent bookstores and retailers as a way to begin building their audience.
