After a lot of contemplation, I decided it was time to end the podcast, so this is my heartfelt goodbye to my listeners.

This episode is all about updates on writing, my life, and the show!  It's actually a short one for a change (relatively speaking LOL).  I tried something new with the audio as well, using my headset. Not sure I like how it sounds, hmm...

With it being Aisuru's fifth book birthday this month and this being the 7th year TLW being on the air, come July, I decided to take some time to reflect on my first five/seven years as an indie author and podcaster, and then look forward to what I hope the next five/seven will bring.

In this episode, I’m sharing the various tools (i.e. software, apps, and such) that I use as a writer and publisher, as well as some of my favorite tools for the financial and business side of things!  This is a "revisit" topic, though the last time I talked about it was way back in episode 30 five years ago! Make sure to check my site SherelleWinters.com for the show notes with links to everything I'll talk about!

It’s January, which means the start of a new year, but also the time to start thinking of that oft-dreaded thing: income taxes! In this episode, I’m breaking down why you do have to deal with filing taxes for your indie author income, how to set yourself up to make it easier, the importance of record-keeping, tips on deductions, and how to file them. It’s a weighty topic, but I hope you’ll find it useful!

What else would you talk about at the end of the year but taking a look back at 2019, including goal results, the year as a whole, and the financials! Then we talk about my goals, plans, and vision for 2020!

This one is an off-the-cuff hodgepodge episode in which I talk about my NaNo progress, how my writing style has changed and coping with it, the lack of sales, and venting a bit about AMS ads and author advice to spend money you don't have.

Oh yeah, you know what time of year it is! With NaNoWriMo closing in fast, today it’s all about what it is, what it isn’t, why (and why not) to do it, NaNo & me, and how to get in on it if you decide to give it a whirl!

With National Novel Writing Month just around the corner, it seemed like a good time to discuss what we actually mean by the terms pantser, plotter, and plantser, and which one is best for writers.

Today I’m answering 15 questions about hobbies, dreams, life, reading, and writing!
