Excellent Information for Authors like Me!

I stumbled onto this podcast two weeks ago and I’m glad I did. Great info for beginning and seasoned authors. I’ve downloaded about twenty episodes and they are bite sized enough that I can go through a couple a day.

Today I learned the value of press releases. I thought they were simply to get more media, but no, they benefit in other important ways. Listen to the podcast with Lynette Hoy to learn more.
