    661 - The Brutal Truth About Publishing with Yvonne Mason

    The Public Access Podcast 661 - The Brutal Truth About Publishing with Yvonne Mason Award-winning author, publisher, podcast host and former licensed bounty hunter Yvonne Mason joins Rusty Diamond for a conversation about independent publishing, book scams, editing, audiobooks, artificial intelligence and what separates a finished author from somebody who keeps talking about writing. Yvonne runs Midnight Publishing and has helped build a catalog of more than 150 titles. She explains why she does not charge authors upfront, what happens behind the scenes of book formatting and cover design, how she selects audiobook voices and why she will not accept a manuscript written entirely by AI. They also talk about libraries, true crime, children’s books, author expectations and the uncomfortable truth that publishing a book does not guarantee fame, television appearances or millions of sales. Success begins when the book stops sitting on your computer and becomes something another human being can actually read.
