Celebrating Independent Publishers!

In Episode 206 of Book Talk, Etc., Tina and Hannah explore and celebrate independently owned publishers! We talk about the difference between traditional publishers and indie presses, and what makes an independent press unique.

If you prefer other shopping options, you can find today’s books on Bookshop.org or Blackwell's. Purchasing through these links supports us with a small commission, at no extra cost to you.
