from The Page & Podium Podcast with Dr. Amanda Nell Edgar · host Page & Podium Press

There are more ways than ever before to bring your ideas and writing to your audience. How do you decide what path is best for you? In this week's video, we explore the three main paths that are currently available to writers and the pros and cons of each system, including timelines, cost, and expectations on you as the writer. Whether you choose traditional, hybrid, or self-publishing, always remember that your story deserves to be told and you deserve the support you need to tell it. 🔗 You've got the story. You've got the idea. You just don't know the steps in the process. If this is what's holding your memoir back, I have got the solution for you.
