Alchemy for Authors

Welcome back to Alchemy for Authors! In today’s episode I chat with speculative fiction author, Jennifer Martain, about all things Indie Publishing. Jennifer shares why she chose Indie Publishing over Traditional, why she prefers newsletters over social media, why deadlines are an author’s best friend, and why you absolutely need to accept who you are and just be yourself.

Welcome back to Alchemy for Authors! If you’re anything like me, you might find yourself saying you don’t have time to write, or you’re too busy. In this episode I challenge whether that’s really true. What if our lack of time was actually a way to protect ourselves from writing? I share ways we can find more time for writing, how to set ourselves up to succeed even when time is tight, and how to shift our mindset to create more time in our life.   So, if you’re feeling frustrated by a lack of time, this is the episode for you!
