A look at how new services and a growing market are making it an even better time for self-published authors to go digital. Indie authors are finding that now is a good time to dive into e-books.

At the beginning of September, Pew Research Center reported that 28% of U.S. adults had read an e-book in the past year—a five-point increase from four years ago.
