This is a podcast for authors by authors! (And also readers who want the scoop on what authors are REALLY thinking.) Join Valerie Biel and TK (Tracey) Sheffield as we share topics to help our fellow writers as well as fun tidbits on what we’re reading and where we’re roaming. We're planning 10 episodes in 2024 with topics like agent searching (episode 1), indie vs traditional publishing (episode 4), book launch basics, helpful writing conferences (episode 2), elements of mystery writing, and more!
ABOUT US—YOUR PODCAST HOSTS:
Valerie Biel is the author of the award-winning Circle of Nine series as well as a publicity professional who aids other authors with their book launches and marketing. You can find her here on substack at Reading, Writing, & Roaming or at ValerieBiel.com.
Tracey writes stories for readers who want to laugh and escape. She is the author of the award-winning Backyard Model comic culinary cozy mysteries, and other books. She is found at her website, TK Sheffield Writes, and her Instagram, The Backyard Model.
ABOUT EPISODE 4:
We discuss the pros and cons of traditional and independent (self) publishing) along with why (at least for now) we’re both still seeking a traditional publishing contract for some of our manuscripts. Look for the main discussion to start at 8 min 30 seconds. Before that we discuss our latest projects and what’s been most fulfilling of late!
