#396 Tetyana Denford: Should You Self-Publish Your Book?

My guest today is Tetyana Denford, a Ukrainian-American author, translator, and freelance writer. Her debut novel, Motherland, based on an incredible family secret that was revealed by her maternal grandmother, was longlisted for the Readers Digest Self-Published Book Awards, and has been met with critical global acclaim. She is also the author of a beautiful poetry book series on the topics of hope, magic, empowerment, and love. This episode is about self-publishing, something Tetyana know so much about and we discuss the pros and cons of both self-publishing and traditional publishing, how to keep going with your writing and how to get your work out there plus retaining your creative integrity. Hope you enjoy this conversation!
