Formerly known as ‘BEA Selects,’ the Indie Insights Author Stage sessions at BookExpo enable booksellers, librarians, media, and others to discover Indie Publishers’ books and publications coming out in Fall 2017. These stage sessions consist of five-minute rapid-fire presentations during which Indie Publishers, Editors, and Authors share their latest gems in the categories of Literary Fiction, Reference/Self-Help, and Children’s. Just as importantly, attendees are afforded a reason to engage with Indie Publishers at their booths by receiving a coupon at every session that they can redeem at each Indie Publisher’s booth for a free galley or book! Driving traffic to your booth can provide you many opportunities to connect with booksellers, librarians, and others at the show!
