Over the past two decades, millions of authors have bypassed the traditional gatekeepers - agents and publishers - to forge their own path.

Indie authors now dominate bestseller lists, often earn more than their traditionally published peers and publish what they want, when they want. Many are both authors and micro-entrepreneurs; as at home with plot twists as they are with print-on-demand.

And yet going indie isn't for everyone. If you're chasing literary prizes or a household-name publisher, you need an advance to live on or want mainstream media coverage, the traditional route is likely still your best bet.

Written by John Bond, co-founder of Whitefox - a leading publishing agency - and journalist and author James Silver, Going Indie: Publishing Your Book Your Way cuts through the noise to help you decide which path serves your book best.

Drawing on insights from leading agents, publishers and successful indie authors, this essential guide demystifies the modern publishing landscape - evaluating both routes honestly and fairly, so you can make the choice that's right for you.
