Are you an aspiring author teetering on the edge of writing your first book? Or perhaps you've penned down your masterpiece but are grappling with the next big question: to self-publish or to seek a traditional publisher? Dive into our latest podcast episode where I'm joined by the insightful Polly Letofsky. Together, we unravel the intricate tapestry of the publishing world, shedding light on buzzwords like "kdp", "Ingram Sparks", and "self-publishing". If these terms have been floating around in your writer's universe, then this episode is tailor-made for you!


Polly and I delve deep into the nuances of publishing, leaving no stone unturned. We discuss the strategic aspects of marketing, the power and reach of social media, and the significance of owning your own ISBN. But that's not all! We also touch upon the art and science of crafting the perfect cover artwork, a crucial element that can make or break a book's success. With Polly's expertise and my curiosity, we aim to provide you with a holistic understanding of the publishing landscape.


Whether you're a newbie writer or a seasoned author, our candid conversation offers valuable insights that can guide your publishing decisions. We weigh the pros and cons of self-publishing versus traditional publishing, helping you make an informed choice that aligns with your vision and goals.
