Bad Writers - Ep. 1
Welcome to the Bad Writers podcast with Mari Dietz and Rae Ryan. We're two writers talking about the ups and downs of self-publishing. Amidst the deluge of voices telling us what we should do to find success, we all fall short because the bar is too dang high. Feeling like a failure is the inevitable and unfortunate side effect. In this first episode, we talk about our journey through traditional publishing to end up at self-publishing, our self-publishing origin story, if you will.
