ABC Indie Fiction Challenge Reading Suggestions

Want to know more about the ABC Indie Fiction Challenge is? Read the introductory page and sign up!

The aim of this reading challenge is to read 24 indie fiction tales in 2011. Each story must be written by a different author, and the first letters of the authors’ surnames must make up the entire alphabet. It is not necessary to read in alphabetical order.

But where to begin? To help the participants, I have decided to compile a suggested reading list of indie authors — and if you can help me find suggestions for the gaps in the alphabet, all the better!

If there are some letters we cannot find authors for, I suggest we try find an author with the letter in question somewhere in their name, thus keeping the total number of indie reads at 24.
