    *Question about this one: Amanda Hocking was an indie author at the time she self published this book but she has since had newer books traditionally published so I'm not sure if it counts.  Anyone want to weigh in?

    I had to look up the definition of an Indie author ... it included authors who were self published at one time and then had their books traditionally published later. So, my vote would be "yes."
