Two Indie Authors … brilliant

Well, what a brilliant show. Rob and David put together such an informative podcast, which I look forward to each week. Whether you’re just starting out or a seasoned Indie author, the hour spent listening to these podcasts is invaluable. Great stuff, please keep them coming.

Love this!

Two indie authors are a firm favourite. They share all their experience and knowledge which has helped me acquire and know things I wasn’t sure about yet. Their show has been a good reassurance that it’s okay not to sell many of your first book (just about to release mine) and just keep writing! Great advice, really down to earth and funny too!

Cat Yaffe Author ,

Refreshing content, honest advice

Great podcast, easy to listen to with sound, tried and tested advice without selling! The interviews are in depth and the knowledge of the hosts is valuable. If you’re an indie author, editor or producer then you will want to subscribe to this podcast.
