  • Author Interview with Samantha Ward Smith

    Currently writing her third book, Sam is one of our inspirational Mabel and Stanley Publishing authors.

    By her own confession, Sam knew very little about promotion, social media or book marketing when she started her author journey, but she has really committed to the process - learning as much as she could and not being afraid to make mistakes along the way. 

    Her hard work is really paying off and her books are gaining more and more traction as a result. 

    You can buy Sam's latest historical (Gothic) fiction novel Ravenscourt on Amazon.

  • Author Interview with Matt White

    Matt White wrote his book Snack Monkey - how to stop eating the whole packet after a drastic diet and lifestyle reset during which he lost a large amount of weight and regained control of his overall health. His book is a guide for others to do the same. Matt's book is available on Amazon.

    What is interesting about Matt's author journey is the way in which he has built his author brand and made full use of his connections to help him promote his book.

    Many authors struggle with promoting their books and often fail to understand how important it is to treat their authorship like a business that needs to be built and grown.
