I’ve been thinking about this lately… When I first started writing, I thought finishing the book would be the hardest part. 😂 But then I realized there’s a whole other journey after that—publishing, marketing, finding readers, and actually getting people to discover your book. I’m curious for those who’ve already published: what’s one thing you wish you had known before you published your first book? Would love to hear your experience.

For next week's coaching call, I'd like to discuss what's working for authors right now. Was it Amazon Ads? A podcast? Library sales? Something else? Let me know below what's working for you, and pop in next Monday to join the crew!
