Indies...it's no longer a matter of if you'll make it and sustain yourself off of writing...it's a matter of if you'll last before you can start paying the bills.Listening to one of my favorite teachers on the Rocking Self Publishing Podcast -- Holly Lielse -- I realized that if you keep crafting, keep learning and write good books, you'll be able to make a living off writing.
It might take years. You might give up. You might find writing isn't for you. But if you keep writing you'll find your crowd. I've listened to only two podcasts on self-publishing, but they've shaped the path I've taken. ACTION ITEM: For this Tuesday's Tools I'm giving you two podcasts that have shaped the path I've taken. If you have 2 hours every week to commit to listening and learning, click on the pictures below. The links there will take you to the podcasts of these industry leaders that have helped me in my endeavors. At the very least, you'll be inspired and know you aren't alone!

Denise--I'm so glad I could uplift your spirit! I hope you find one of the two or maybe both those podcasts as uplifting I do!
