186. Balancing Trad & Indie Publishing with Stephanie Burgis
For the first episode of a two-part series about being a hybrid author, I have the wonderful and talented Stephanie Burgis on the podcast to talk about her journey of starting with traditional publishing and adding indie titles to the mix. We talked about:
- Diversifying your author income streams
- How to decide whether a project should be trad or indie
- The creative and logistical benefits of writing novellas
- Building a Patreon community that doesn’t add a ton of work to your plate
- And more!
You can learn more about Stephanie (and her fabulous books!) on her website, Instagram, and Patreon.
