SPTT 084 – What No One Tells You About Self-Publishing Under a Pen Name
Episode 084
Released on: March 1, 2025
On this episode of the Self-Publishing Tips & Tricks podcast, we sit down with multi-genre author Nicole Pierman, who also writes under the pen name Nicole Brona, to explore the intricacies of managing multiple pen names in self-publishing. Nicole shares her eye-opening experience of choosing the wrong pen name just days before publishing and the valuable lessons she learned about branding, marketing psychology, and navigating Amazon’s algorithms. We also dive into the challenges and rewards of writing in niche genres like Irish mythology, as well as the unique hurdles of marketing poetry versus fiction. Whether you’re considering a pen name or juggling multiple author brands, this episode is packed with insights to help you make strategic decisions in your self-publishing journey!
