Directory Lets Readers Buy Books Directly From Authors Worldwide
Original: Buy Books Direct from Authors Around the World (sorted by region) Including # Fantasy # SciFi # Horror # Romance # Myste
A directory is circulating that lists authors around the world selling their books directly to readers, organised by region and spanning genres including fantasy, science fiction, horror, romance, mystery, comedy and historical fiction. Readers and writers are sharing the resource within online book communities, with many treating it as a way to support independent authors and cut out intermediaries.
Why now: Readers are actively looking for ways to support independent authors directly, and the region-sorted genre list makes that easy to share.
