It's my second year judging books for BBNYA and I'd be happy to answer questions. I find this answer from them frustrating and incomplete but technically correct. What they aren't saying is that literally the next phase is the 5K excerpts are read. Then 10k. Then the whole book. But not until later.

Hey. Hey.

Please don’t wait for an indie book series to be finished before you pick up the books. Just buy them. Don’t wait.

So MANY indie series never get finished because the author gets zero sales on the opening volumes and gives up.

Give them a reason to keep going.

Buy the books.
