Get Published Episode 153 – Julayne Hughes Found Her Character

Posted on by

Hey there! Welcome to ‘Get Published’. I’m your host, Mike Plested. Jeff Hite and I have been having a lot of fun with our first book published under our Evil Alter Ego Press banner. We have been learning a lot about creating a book and bringing it to market. Part of that learning has been around promotion. You will have likely heard a couple interviews with contributors to the anthology. Today I am bringing you another one, this time with Julayne Hughes. Julayne is a writer, editor and all around awesome artist and I am delighted to talk with her today.

Get Published Episode 152 – Scott Roche Changes Gears

Posted on by

Hey there! Welcome to ‘Get Published’. I’m your host, Mike Plested. I am on Twitter, Facebook and other social media outlets a lot. That’s because I’ve seen how many cool people also use those mediums. My participation in them has allowed me to meet and make friends with and interact with some of those people. I get to hear about new projects, successes, failures and talk about some of my own. I get and give ideas to help with writing and promotion. Every once in a while I see a post and I know I have to talk to the poster about it in more detail. Such a posting came from Scott Roche a few weeks ago. Scott talked about […]
