Announcing Author Update

Publishing is changing faster than ever before. New AI tools are dropping every time you turn around, and the way authors write, publish, and sell books is being rewritten in real-time. On Novel Marketing has been committed to sharing evergreen marketing principles that do not change, which is why it"s become such a trusted resource for authors. However, this strategy has left many authors on their own to sort out weekly publishing news. The result is that they find a lot of sensationalistic hearsay that spreads on author Facebook groups. So, I asked myself, "How do I connect my audience with reliable publishing news while maintaining the evergreen nature of the podcast?" With a brand-new show called Author Update! Author Update is where we break down the latest news in publishing, from Amazon feature rollouts to global events that could affect book printing.
