Book Marketing Tips and Author Success Podcast
What Most Authors Don't Understand About Publishing
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We did this episode because there still seems to be a lot of confusion around the differences between self-publishing, traditional publishing, and using a publishing service.
Which is understandable!
But there's a lot of grey area in the industry today that really needs to be explored and understood before you can confidently make the publishing decision that's going to be right for you right now and down the road too.
Keep an open mind, you might be surprised at how much your opinion shifts after listening!
