219. The Fear of a Book Flopping

If you’re afraid your book is going to flop, stop everything and listen to this episode.

It’s normal to be disappointed if your book doesn’t reach as many readers as you hoped, but the deep level of fear and panic around flopping comes from something so much more insidious: the false belief that this book is your only chance to succeed.

This episode will help you clean up your fear of flopping and embrace the long game of publishing.
