Growing up, most of my friends were found between the crisp pages of a new book. I moved. A lot. But my friends always got to go with me.

Now, as an adult, I still find myself pulled into different worlds & connecting with characters who feel like family.

Which is why I squealed with joy when Penn Cole said she’d join me for this podcast conversation! And yet—we kept it 99% about book marketing for authors.

You may or may not know that my boyfriend is a nonfiction book editor. So when I tell you I hear lots of tips, strategies, advice, & avoidable mistakes—I mean it!

This is a conversation I’m delighted to bring you because there simply aren’t enough conversations being had about book marketing for authors.

Join Penn & I as we discuss marketing strategies for indie authors, how marketing has changed since she became traditionally published, tips to build lasting connections with readers, & so much more!
