To me, the indie publishing industry is made up of the most amazing, talented, and considerate folks I have ever come across. From mentors like Dean Wesley Smith and his wife Kristine Kathryn Rusch teaching me the how-to's and the what-not-to-do's; to Passive Guy keeping me informed on everything from the legal aspects of indie publishing to all the most current industry news; to Joe Konrath motivating me with his commando blogs - everyone I have come across in indie publishing has been, as the song says, "Simply The Best!"
It doesn't stop with them though. From the bloggers, to the reviewers, to the readers - all the supporters of indie published authors are the warmest community of individuals I have ever come across.

I can illustrate why I'm bubbling over by telling you my journey to my 1st audiobook, _THE WATCHMAN OF EPHRAIM_. It started with a re-posting of a piece from Neil Gaiman’s Journal that my friend Passive Guy shared on his awesome "The Passive Voice" blog. Gaiman wrote about "ACX" - the Audiobook Creation Exchange.
