Publishing, patience, perseverance and cheesecake…

Today on the podcast (Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and more), Leslye and I talk self-publishing, publishing, patience, perseverance, hybrid, description and writing processes, how hard writing is sometimes and moments that make us smile and so much more! 

Do you have a question for me about self-publishing or writing?
