Authorpreneur Lifestyle Podcast

Welcome to The Authorpreneur Lifestyle Podcast

In today's episode I am sharing with you some of my thoughts about why it's important to start thinking as an authorpreneur if you want to succeed as a writer.
Being a writer nowadays is a lot different from what it was a few years ago. Now all writers have access to different self-publishing platforms. Social media and technology also changed the face of the writing and publishing industry. Now, if you want to be a successful writer, you have to think about marketing strategies and campaigns, creating author platforms and being social. But is it worth the effort? Why to do all these stuff instead of just writing?
The truth is that there are millions of books published every year. And if you want to succeed as a writer you have to start thinking as an entrepreneur.
Listen to this episode to learn what are the exact reasons that made me decide to be an authorpreneur.
