Join a variety of authors, small press, and indie publishers as we celebrate all things book with a number of simultaneous literary crowdfunding campaigns. Find your new favorite author, series, anthology, or stand-alone at The Book Bazaar event running November 12th, 2025 to December 3rd, 2025. Here you won’t find just novels, you’ll also find projects funding audiobooks, anthologies, poetry, picture books, comics, and more! If you’re an author or indie press, you can apply now to participate in The Book Bazaar until July!
What is The Book Bazaar?
To put it simply, authors/indie presses run their own crowdfunding campaign during the event, as part of the event, with hopes of funding their publishing project. All campaigns run at the same time, and each campaign cross-promotes one another. Each campaign runs on an all-or-nothing basis, like all crowdfunding projects, which means if they don’t meet their minimum goal, they can’t create their projects. 🙁 That’s why we’re hoping to count on you, the lovely reader, to help uplift these publishers and really make this Bazaar something special!
Plus, the more projects you back, the more rewards you’ll get. Each Bazaar project is paired with another project, and by backing both Bazaar projects, you’ll get EXTRA free rewards! Back all Bazaar projects to maximize your rewards.
Best of all – all projects are verified created by humans! You can feel confident that you are supporting real human authors by backing any of our projects. Plus, projects using AI in whole or part are not allowed on the BackerKit platform.
