In this episode, Narelle Todd and New York Times Bestselling author S.E. Smith dive deep into the future of writing, reading, and business for authors in the age of AI. πŸ’‘

From the ethics of AI training on authors' works to how writers can harness automation to free up creative time, this is a grounded, eye-opening conversation about how technology is reshaping publishing.

You'll hear both perspectives — the tech optimist and the storyteller — as they explore:

  • Whether AI is a threat or a tool for authors
  • How to use AI to reduce admin time and grow your business
  • The truth about piracy, copyright, and author compensation
  • Why adaptability is the new superpower for creatives
  • How AI can give authors more freedom, focus, and fun

Narelle and Susan share real-world examples, from using AI agents to handle book promotions to how automations are giving authors their weekends back.

If you've ever wondered how AI will impact your creative career — this conversation will inspire and empower you to adapt without losing your voice.

🎧 Tune in for mindset, marketing, and momentum insights that help you future-proof your author business.
