Calling all fiction authors!! (or aspiring fiction authors) Today I'm joined by Barbara Hartzler. She's a successful fiction author, a former SPS student, and now a coach at Self Publishing School who's helped 100's of authors with their fiction books.
In this interview, we talk about:
-The “Tier 1” process - and why you should use it to launch (or relaunch) your book
-What is a “trope”? And why you need to know these when writing fiction
-How to get more reviews for your fiction books (and how to relaunch or launch your books successfully)
-Should you launch a box set? (who and when?) - and the surprising advice you need to follow
-Read through rate - what is it and why is it important for fiction authors?
-What Barbara has learned from coaching 400 students in 1,400+ 1-1 coaching calls
-The best advice for first time fiction authors (one thing she wishes she did sooner)
