Stock Your Book & Become A Member of The Book Dragon
The Book Dragon was founded by an indie author who understands the unique challenges and opportunities facing independent writers today. Unlike other retailers who simply list your book among thousands, we go above and beyond for every author we represent, creating a true partnership that nurtures success. Our amazing Dragon Community connects you with fellow authors who share expertise, support, and collaborative promotional opportunities that amplify everyone’s visibility. We’re proactively invested in your success, offering genuine business partner support rather than the transactional relationships typical of other retailers. When you stock with The Book Dragon, you gain more than just shelf space—you join a collaborative voice that champions indie literature and provides the resources, guidance, and community that independent authors truly need. We don’t just sell books; we nurture authors and their creative journeys with the passion and dedication that can only come from those who’ve walked the same path.
