Interview on The Book Designer website

I met the wonderful Joel Friedlander - The Book Designer - through twitter a while back - and so admire his amazing website, stacked to the rafters with brilliant articles and advice on books and publishing.

I was so thrilled when he recently ran an interview with me on self-publishing and marketing your work - Joel has been so generous with the praise, methinks it's a bit of a mutual-admiration thing going on!

Huge thanks to Joel for the feature - you can read the full piece here.
