  • 3 Mistakes To Avoid On Your Book Publishing Path - With Isabel Sterling!

    Send us a Text Message.

    You can see your book, its shiny cover luring readers as it sits neatly on the shelf of your local bookstore. 

    Whether this is your first book, or your tenth, writers and authors share the same desire: to tell a story, to connect with readers. 

    Sometimes, you might feel like you’re not making enough progress, according to your timeline. But my guest today argues that the answer to this problem is not, in fact, to hustle. Amongst other things in this episode, discover the 3 biggest mistakes all writers and authors face, how to recognise them, and not make them!

    I’m so excited to introduce our special guest, Isabel Sterling. Isabel is a master coach, foster mom, and author of These Witches Don’t Burn, This Coven Won’t Break, and The Coldest Touch. She lives with her spouse, foster kiddo, and fur-babies in Central New York, where the winters are frigid, the summers are too hot, and autumn is perfect.
