Promoting yourself and your book is often hard for a lot of writers, but it is also a necessary part of the job. But how do we make sure that we take care of ourselves in the process? In this episode of The Balanced Creative, Guest Sophie Jai and I dive deep into the pros and cons of self promotion for authors and why author care is an essential consideration for all authors.
Sophie Jai is the author of WILD FIRES, her debut novel. Most recently, it was shortlisted for 2023 Rakuten Kobo Emerging Writer Prize and the 2023 Fred Kerner Book Award. It was the winner of the 2019 Borough Press x The Good Literary Agency Prize, and longlisted for the 2019 Bridport Prize Peggy Chapman-Andrews Award. Jai has been a Writer-in-Residence & Visiting Fellow at the University of Oxford, where is currently working on her second novel.
