Alchemy for Authors Connection, Optimism, & Publishing Wide with Mark Leslie Lefebvre
Welcome back to Alchemy for Authors!
In this episode, I talk with author and book industry expert, Mark Leslie Lefebvre. We discuss Mark’s journey to becoming an author, and the power of connection and optimism to supercharge your author career. Other topics we cover include:
· How a ghost-walk inspired Mark to write a plethora of books on ghosts and hauntings.
· Why people need scary stories.
· What it really means to publish wide.
· How to be a relaxed author if your book gets pirated.
· The power that comes from asking yourself: Would you rather have a million dollars or a million readers?
Mark’s humour, optimism, and passion for the writing life make this an episode you’re not going to want to miss.
