Making it as an Indie Author – My Thoughts
Author Marketing Guru and Writer Laura Pepper Wu recently asked me to share my thoughts regarding my journey as an indie author–including my ongoing marketing strategies and the advice I have for others who are considering taking the indie author plunge. Okay…so I had never done a SKYPE video interview and didn’t know where to look. But if you ignore that, I think the information can be really helpful for writers wanting to make it as an author.

Ingrid, WOW. This interview is insightful, encouraging and tremendously helpful to me as I teeter (waffle) on indie authorship. Thank you for sharing your story. I am grateful for those people who walk the journey ahead of me who are kind enough to turn and wave and show me the path.
My posted-where-I-can-see-it quote has been: “Discipline is remembering what you want.” Joining it now will be your father’s quote: “You never know what you can accomplish as long as you keep on going; As soon as you quit, you have your answer.” Priceless!
Thanks, Julie. Im so glad it helps. It’s such a new unknown world out there…but the opportunities are amazing for indie authors right now.
Inspiring! It’s taken me ten years too. And I agree, once the book is written, the work begins. Great interview!
