Wish I’d Known Then . . .
For Writers
Welcome to the Wish I’d Known Then podcast.
We interview authors, digging in to look at what’s worked–the ideas, tips, and strategies that have taken them to the top of the bestseller charts–as well as what they’ve learned from their missteps and blunders.
Because being an indie author is more than knowing the latest marketing trend, it’s about being innovative and creative and learning from your mistakes.
