Send us Fan MailThere’s no polite way to say this, but I’ve realised that I’ve written a pile of garbage and may need to completely rewrite the second book in my James Lalonde series. So, the first lesson you’ve learned is to never rush the initial creative brainstorming and outlining phase of writing a story. Just don’t do that. But, enough of my whinging.My adventures in book marketing continue, and the journey resembles me rummaging around in the dark because I have no clue about what I’m doing. At the same time, I’m learning a lot in the process, which is actually more important. While I’m on the topic of book marketing, I will be sharing the results of the book promotions I ordered in the previous podcast episode.So, stay tuned for all of this and much more.Thanks for listening, and happy reading and writing, everybody.Podcasts, Books, and Tools MentionedThe Blog Post | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/bts026Should you write a novel in 30 days | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/write-a-novel-in-30-days/Book Doggy | https://bookdoggy.com/Awesome Gang | https://awesomegang.com/Bargain Booksy | https://www.bargainbooksy.com/for-authors/Want the podcast straight to your inbox? | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/podcast/tap/Other Useful LinksLooking for an affordable premade book cover? | https://levillainbookcovers.com/shop/ **Be on the Podcast | https://authorpreneurpodcast.com/podcast/interview/Host Your Author Website with SiteGround ⇢ https://www.siteground.com/go/authorpreneur *My BooksMy Short Story, the Lawn | https://dl.bookfunnel.com/wi5nh80cx4The Candidate | https://books2read.com/the-candidateSuspicion | https://books2read.com/suspicionDuplicity | https://books2read.com/duplicity-adhay/The Locked Room | https://books2read.com/locked-roomSupport the showConnect with me on Social MediaDiscord: https://discord.gg/HZX7HZBQUfFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/authorpreneurpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/authorpreneurpodcast/X: https://twitter.com/writeradhayYouTube: www.youtube.com/c/authorpreneurpodcast/videosGoodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/authoradhay/Merch Store: https://www.redbubble.com/people/WriterADHay/shop* This is a service or product offered by me** My bookish merchandise store
