Indie authors now have more opportunities than ever to receive recognition for their work. With the increasing popularity of self-publishing, many book awards have been created specifically for indie authors. This is a great way to get your work noticed and to build your platform as an author. NFT ebooks are going to be a reality. This means that you will be able to buy, sell, and trade ebooks like you would any other digital asset. This could have a major impact on the publishing industry, and it will be interesting to see how it plays out. Investing in your writing career is important if you want to be successful.
