That person was and is Susan Toy. Susan has done a lot of different things in the book industry and she is trying to give back to writers by helping them to get some notice when they have new work coming out.

I talk about collaboration and self-publishing quite a bit on Get Published. I guess that is probably because I have an interest in both things. So today, I interview Megan Cutler and James Abendroth. They have been working on a collaboration project for the past few years that has just been released. Megan and James released their book, Island of Lost Forevers as a self-published novel. We talk about their collaboration process and what they did to self-published their novel. And before we start the show, I want to let you all know that Mik Murdoch: The Power Within is now past the edits phase. The cover is finished and the book is being laid out. It will be available […]
