A harbinger of the future book market


A bookstore that features self-published writers
As founder of The indiependents.org, I hereby nominate the brick-and-mortar as well as cyber-bookstorewww.backtothebooks.net in Manitou Springs, CO -- a harbinger of the self-publishing future,

Still a rarity today, Back to the Books is a bookstore friendly to indie writers, showing others booksellers the way to survive in today’s turbulent book market. 
Print and digital titles of self-published authors can be purchased in the store, and ordered or downloaded from its website. The store offers individual writers a favorable consignment agreement, which it honors to a fault. The contact is Jon Renaud.
The indiePENdents invites other booksellers to follow this example and open their doors to indie literature, instead of discriminating against it and keeping it hidden from the reading public.
