We talk about:
- Shelly's life & background so far (sabbatical, nomading and road trips)
- The shortcomings of traditional/mainstream publishing, and how publishing has now changed thanks to technology
- The opportunities now available to writers, and why self-publishing is a great fit for INFs/iNtuitives & introverts
- Distributing your writing; choosing the social media channel that fits you & your personality, and sowing the seeds to connect with your readers
- On the power of writing in a group, and asking for the type of feedback you are looking for, so that the book we are writing comes from our heart
- Shelly's advice for first-time authors, when it comes to balancing the 'creating' and the 'marketing' pieces
- How the launch for my own book, The Indie Author, is shaping up.
- Shelly's books, how she manages her projects, and what's on the horizon for her
