Please don’t stop doing the show. Yours is one of four that I listened to on a regular basis. I look forward to it. Thank you for that. 😊
Bryan’s super power is making writers excited about marketing! Short, sweet, often funny episodes.
This podcast covers a wide range of topics all to do with writing, publishing and marketing books. If you're having an issue with your self-publishing journey, there's guarantee an episode somewhere in this list that can give you clear, tangible advice!
This is the only one I actually wait for and listen to as soon as it comes out. I will admit I miss the longer format (it was great for when I was making dinner!) but I’d rather have shorter episodes than none at all. The information is always up to date, presented in a way that both informs and entertains, and seems well-researched and thought-out. In addition to being an author myself I work in the self-publishing industry and recommend this show regularly to our author clients.
Been listening since the Jim days. I’m glad Jim is gone. I’m glad Clair is gone. I hope Brian will have the confidence to stay solo. He’s really all we need.
