The Holistic Author Show helps you to evaluate your publishing paradigm and ensure that you’re writing and releasing books in a way that works for you. Forget burn out. Get off the hustle bus. Instead, follow your muse, write what you love, and publish the holistic way.
Mindset is one of those things that people talk a lot about, but they don’t give a lot of specifics on. You have a lot to handle when you’re an independent author. When do you actually work on your mindset and is it something you need to focus on all the time? More importantly, what […]

Dealing with Severe Burnout Part 1
In the first of this two part series, I talk about burnout as it is commonly discussed and why for neurodivergent authors our burnout can be something more.

Mastodon for Authors
With the spectacular and foreseen implosion of Twitter over the past year or more, and corporate-owned social media making it more difficult for smaller creators to gain traction, not to mention followers, and engagement, where is an author to go in search of readers? I, and many other authors, have found a new home in […]
