Introducing Indie Books Unleashed

At Bublish, we think it’s important to shine a spotlight on innovative new ideas around book discoverability. With this in mind, we’d like to introduce you to Indie Books Unleashed, founded by author Crystal Klimavicz. Crystal, take it away… 

The Daily Grind (More than Just Coffee)

Publishing a book is hard work. It starts with a gem of an idea that won’t leave. It niggles and jiggles a writer’s mind until they voluntarily regurgitate it onto the proverbial paper. From there, the day-to-day work of pounding out words begins…writing sentence after sentence and page after page, to form chapters and eventually a full-fledged novel. The work is truly in the daily grind (the coffee simply helps us stay awake).

When writers send out a manuscript for feedback, they often receive comments on their voice, plot, or character development that makes them want to shred the entire thing to bits. They edit, edit some more, and edit again and again until their fingers are numb and finally there is a finished product ready to go to print.

Writers who hope to become Authors spend countless hours alone with their thoughts and ideas, forming driven and deranged characters and descriptive settings for them to live in, and a desirable language intended to ensnare their readers. But how do self-published writers get their books to readers once the books are in print? How do they distribute their books? And after the dozen or books are sold to friends and family, how do self-published authors make a name for themselves? All too often, self-published authors purchase boxes of their books, shout their news over Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc…only to have boxes still sitting in their garage months later.

Indie Books Unleashed, LLC, a new program designed to help self-published authors distribute their books into new markets, get to readers’ hands, and obtain those coveted online book reviews. Indie Books Unleashed (IBU) circumvents the traditional methods of book distribution, just as independent authors have navigated outside of the world of the once-normal routes of publishing. This program brings Author’s books to places where readers are, and it opens up new modes of distribution in a simple and savvy way.

Simply put, IBU brings books to communities where readers are, at a reasonable cost, and with potentially great results. There is just a one-time fee for all members for their first publication (additional books can be registered at a discounted rate). This is “real-world discoverability for writers”, as quoted by Kathy Meis, Founder and CEO of Bublish.

So, if you have a book that you’ve self-published, visit us at IndieBooksUnleashed.com and join today! The first 10 Bublish members who sign up will receive their membership for FREE. And, if you are a café, salon, doctor’s or dentist’s office, shop, etc…and would like to participate in IBU at no charge, then email us at info@IndieBooksUnleashed.com to get involved. Why IBU? Because books are meant to be read!
