LWW 137: Hidden Costs of Self-Publishing

TB starts off by issuing an apology to an author, and Clare digs in the guilty knife a wee bit more. Lizzie is with the ARC team, and TB is anxiously waiting to find out if they love it or hate it. In less stressful news, TB went on a lovely drive along backcountry roads where the leaves are still blazing with autumnal colors as she visited one quaint New England town after another, all the while listening to Christmas music. What’s not to love about that?

Clare is still hammering out fresh words, but she’s convinced everything she’s writing is horrible. Oh, the life of a writer with all the fears and insecurities involved. Family woes have compromised her writing time, but she’s trying to press on. In audio news, Big London Dreams is out. Toot toot! Authors, Clare needs your help figuring out the right price to charge for signed paperbacks. In fun news, Clare met up with two lesfic authors. More proof that networking isn’t a dirty word, especially if drinks are involved.
