𝗧𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗞 𝗬𝗢𝗨 to everyone who made 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 unforgettable.

From Matera’s stunning backdrop to the sparks of insight shared across the room, this past weekend reminded us of what’s possible when indie authors come together. We spoke openly about how fast the publishing world is shifting, and how, even amid all the change, we’re still building something real. Each voice is distinct, and each story is personal, but when we gather like this, we amplify what makes this community so powerful.

To everyone who showed up with curiosity, generosity, and heart, thank you for making this moment matter. We hope to see you in 2026.
