Frankie Thompson | Gatekeeping & Self-Publishing

Episode correction: Nova Reid did have interest and publishing offers prior to June 2020. This oversight was Frankie's mistake and she would like to apologise to Nova for the error.

Author Frankie Thompson tells me about her journey to self publishing her books and the lessons she's learned about the industry along the way. We also talk about her anti racism journey and how it felt to have the rug pulled from you when global pandemic nixes your travel blogging career.

If you need a dose of career inspiration and as reminder it's never too late to do ANYTHING this is the episode for you.
