The Happy Writer 61: The Writers of the Future workshop

Many self-published writers are seeking to cast a wider net than just to publish on Amazon. Many are looking once again at the venues that were available before selfpublishing came on the scene. Competitions, and awards are part of the industry. What is the Writers of the Future contest, does it make sense to submit, and what about the controversy? I attended in 2011, and in this episode I talk about mingling with big name authors, and yes, controversy. If you enjoy this show, please put some money in the tip jar at Patreon or Ko-fi. I am an author of science fiction and fantasy. You can get my books here.

If you're selfpublishing or interested in self-publishing, but you want to enjoy it, get off the hamster wheel of fast production or piling money into ads, this is the place to be. I've been self-publishing since 2011 and have made a stable income at it while jumping on new platforms I liked, but staying off the ones I considered a time suck. I'll be talking about things like: do you really need to spend so much time on social media? How can you set up passive advertising? How do you diagnose what you need to improve? I sell fiction, nothing else. This podcast is for fun.
