Episode 2: Self-Publishing Perils & Pitfalls

from The Second Chapter · host Andrew Hallman & Wendy Coffman

We discuss writers groups we’re involved with, and their usefulness when it comes to developing and critiquing novel-length works. Wendy shares a funny story about a crazy coincidence between her and a literary agent based in Philadelphia. Then we dig into Wendy’s experiences publishing with Amazon, KDP, IngramSpark, and BookBaby, as well as editorial services, formatting, and cover design, and we explore the perils and pitfalls of self-publishing vs traditional publishing.Wendy's books (Amazon page):https://amzn.to/4kyepk8Andrew's books (Amazon page):https://amzn.to/4n6aHzY
