IndieReCon: The History & Future
IndieReCon’s goal has always been to “make indie publishing a
mission possible” for any writer who wants to embark on the
journey.
Run by authors and for authors, IndieReCon allows any writer
access to publishing professionals and bestselling indie authors.
It’s a free, online conference that is accessible and relevant; a place
to connect, to learn and to understand the ways to successfully selfpublish.
It started in 2013 with co-founders Ali Cross and SR Johannes
wanting to change the stigma of self publishing in the industry.
In 2015, IndieReCon will be presented by the Alliance of
Independent Authors, who will expand the conference, reaching
and inspiring indie authors from across the world.
