Share This Post

You always have wondered and we’re here to help! It’s a whole episode jam packed with advice and thoughts on the sometimes arcane world of self-publishing. Dan and Brigid start off discussing some statistics about the publishing industry and drop a few do’s and several don’ts for anyone wanting to break in. Then, Dan sits down with Courtney Worley, self-published author of romance and fantasy, to discuss her work on the Persimmon and Shadows Inc. series as Cass Alexander, as well as her fantasy debut: The Wolf King’s Bride. Plus: publishing opportunities, Bisexual Awareness Week, and a dark presence at the end of this episode.
