4 Lessons I've Learned After 4 Years of Self Publishing
Today marks my 4-year anniversary of being a self-published Children's Book Author. I had so many high hopes for where this journey would take me, but I would never have guessed it would become my full-time job so quickly! In this new video, I share the top 4 things I have learned over the past 4 years (you probably won't guess what I'm gonna say). I hope you enjoy it and it helps or inspires you on this crazy road that we call self-publishing children's books! Watch it Here 👇 https://youtu.be/KqdpkipwQC8?si=2VUBFOQANwGuMbsA

@Neil Barry That's why I'm here, too!
It’s Live: My New Podcast Is Here! 🎧
My brand new podcast, Children’s Book Marketing Made Easy, is officially live! When I first shared that I was thinking about launching a podcast, I got such an overwhelmingly positive response from you. It honestly made me even more excited to bring this to life! Believe me, I know how busy you are. After a long day, the last thing you want to do is sit down and watch a full YouTube video. That’s exactly why I created this podcast, so you can still learn and grow your children’s book business in a way that fits into your daily life. You can listen while you’re driving, cleaning, walking… wherever. Each episode is designed to help you start your week with clarity and momentum, with simple, practical strategies you can actually use to grow your audience and sell more books. New episodes will be released every Monday! 🎧 You can listen to the first three episodes here:​​ https://authorharleighrose.com/ If you enjoy it, it would mean so much to me if you followed the podcast on your favorite app and left a review. That’s what helps more children’s book authors find it. I’m really proud of this, and I can’t wait for you to listen!

Hi Harliegh, Is this the same one I can pick up on YouTube on my streaming TV?

@Harleigh Manske I finally found it where I can listen to it! I can get it over Amazon Music on my Kindle. I tried getting it over Amazon Music over my TV, but that didn't work. Go figure. I'm glad I found out how I can listen to it!
Something new is coming Monday! 🎧
I’ve been working on something behind the scenes for a little bit now, and I’m honestly so excited to finally share it with you… This Monday, I’m launching my brand new podcast!!! It’s called Children’s Book Marketing Made Easy, and you’ll be able to listen to it on the go wherever you normally listen to your podcasts. The link to the first 3 episodes will be posted here on Monday! ​ I seriously can't wait to share this with you.
Something new is coming Monday! 🎧

AN INTERESTING PHONE CALL
Has anyone here heard of Kravitz and Sons? I just received a phone call from them. They want to list 'Where Can We Have The Party?' on their website. I looked them up and they do have a website, but anyone can build a website before cold-calling people. I've gotten lots of spam before, but never a phone call! Has anyone ever heard of this place?

@Harleigh Manske Yeah. I have a bad feeling about this.
