On Friday, March 7th, 2025 Suzy sat down with Mark Leslie Lefebvre, a publishing industry veteran with more than four decades of experience, in a live publishing Q&A session. Publishing has evolved from a traditional-publishing-only model to the rise of self-publishing via digital platforms.

In part one of this two part podcast we will share Mark's presentation and conversation with Suzy. During this discussion they delve into:

• The benefits of self-publishing, including creative control, higher royalties, and direct engagement with readers
• The challenges indie authors often face, such as marketing, distribution, and visibility 
• Practical solutions and strategies for success
