In this episode, I’m sharing the discipline that I’ve learned in following a slow publishing journey and 5 reasons why I’ve chosen to avoid the instant gratification that’s available to us today with the help of technology. Many will teach that self-publishing is a quick way to share your work with the world instantly, but I’m arguing that we can slow down the process to invest in learning skills needed to learn all the ins and outs of publishing.

I'm your host, Ashley Fenker, bringing you the Path to Published podcast with a solo episode about the importance of slowing down your publishing journey.
