Get Published Episode 62 – Negotiating Contracts

Except, once she started talking I realized that there was much more information than a single show could hold. So I broke up the interview into two parts. […]

Robin Sullivan of Ridan Publishing talks about how she got into publishing. She also talks about the publishing industry and gives writers a list of does and don’ts.
