In July 2008 I eagerly stepped into the world of self-publishing only to discover I hadn’t a clue what I was doing. Since then I’ve done a lot of research, a lot of trial and error, in an effort to learn how to earn a living as an Independent Author while still having time for the most important people in my life: my daughter, my husband, and me. In The Road to Writing I share what I’ve learned, what new ideas and strategies I’m using (and if they work!), while encouraging others wanting to transition to full-time work-at-home status to strike a balance between pursuing their dream and taking time to enjoy life.
