AI Enhanced Plotting & Selling Direct with Carissa Andrews

Welcome back to Alchemy for Authors! In this episode, I talk with best-selling author, CEO of Author Revolution, Millionaire Author Coach, and repeat guest, Carissa Andrews. Topics we discuss include: · Why Carissa made the move from WordPress to Shopify, and why it's triggered her "happy bookseller heart!" · Why Carissa's pulling her books from KU. · Why using Shopify for selling direct works best for authors with backlists, but also, why you should consider starting how you mean to continue. · Why Carissa (mostly) quit social media, and what she uses instead. · Why Carissa created her new course Four Books, Five Days: Mastering AI Enhanced Series Planning, and how you can get it at a killer price. · How AI can help with plotting books, series concepts, and world building. · Why Carissa isn't scared of AI stealing her work. · Why the 'way' we use AI is important, and why Carissa doesn't use it to write her books for her! If you're open-minded and curious about how AI can be used as a tool to help with plotting, and why so many authors are moving towards selling direct, then you're not going to want to miss this entertaining and inspiring episode with Carissa Andrews!
