We broke open the traditional publishing/ self-publishing dichotomy in this conversation, having the most exciting discussion on platform building, purpose, marketing and creativity that maybe we’ve ever had. Nina straddles traditional publishing and self-publishing, doing well in both. Here, we really dig into those worlds and where they meet, where they part, and how they can work together. Nina showed us how to pitch fiction and non-fiction, what it really means to build reach and visibility as an author, and how to get inspired to do it. We even put her on the spot by getting her to pitch her novel-in-progress to us, which she did beautifully. And she gives us her top advice for authors, regarding changing your attitude and embracing all aspects of a writing life. Don’t miss this episode!
