Reader praise for The Productive Indie Fiction Writer:
For writers who are newer in their careers this is a great way to build in good habits from the start. For those further along the path, I have no doubt there’s something within the pages that will strike a cord that can improve productivity.
It stands as a comprehensive compendium of knowledge, presented with remarkable accessibility by an author genuinely committed to sharing her experiences. The ultimate goal? To empower writers to achieve financial independence through their novels while leading their best lives. It comes with my highest recommendation!
…her generous desire to share her hard-won experience resonates in every chapter. She wants ever writer to succeed and sums up her philosophy with this succinct encouragement: “You haven’t failed until you quit.”
