I’ve been invited to join an indie author panel at the Hawke’s Bay Readers & Writers Festival – which is definitely another square on the author career bingo!
The event is called The Most Famous Authors You’ve Never Heard Of and will be chaired by Catherine Robertson. She will be asking Kate O’Keeffe, James Russell, and G. B. Ralph (me!) what it takes to be a successful indie author.
I’d love if you joined us because I think it’ll be a fun and fascinating chat and I’m really looking forward to it! But also because I’ll need all the friendly, smiling faces I can muster in the audience to help me navigate this latest bout of imposter syndrome. I hope to see you there!
