i pretty much only read indies anymore. while some have been better than others, i've gotten pretty lucky and haven't gotten anything i would outright consider garbage. the one thing that guarantees i won't by a particular indie book is formatting and typeface. if you can't follow proper indentation or would rather take the lazy way out and present it in paragraph "chunks", then i won't buy your book. there are also a few i've run across which the author decided to use a typewriter font (i don't know what its called) and it just looks terrible.
