We’re increasing our social media presence for BAIPA, and that will include showing off the work of our members. Make sure that your books are included on the two websites that list BAIPA books so that readers can be find them there.
If you haven’t yet, fill out the form for each book you’d like to appear on each website. Those websites are:
1. BAIPA Authors’ Published Books page on the BAIPA website: Any published and available book by a BAIPA author can be listed there with links to sales sites of your choosing. Use the form below to upload them or go to baipa.org/baipa-author-book-submission/
Please log in to submit your book. Log in here »
2. BAIPA’s Bookshop.org Shop: Any books that are available through Ingram can appear there. (Most likely that means you’ve published them through IngramSpark.) These books will be available for purchase via Bookshop.org with a percentage sales going to BAIPA. Fill out the form below or go to Get Your Book Listed on BAIPA’s Bookshop.org. This will provide me (Karin) with the information I need to put them in our shop there.
And be sure to peruse those both places to see the great variety of offerings from our members!

One of my favorite things about BAIPA is its culture of generosity, the willingness — even eagerness — to share what we have each learned in the process of bringing stories to life. We provide educational programs, networking, marketing opportunities, encouragement, and information on industry vendors and services. And lots of one-on-one advice and mentoring.
We welcome all who have an interest in making connections within the world of independent publishing and learning more about how to publish and sell their work successfully. Together we are raising the standard of independent publishing and helping our members thrive.
Do join us!
