In the first official episode of ‘Wholesome Vibes’, I talk about my personal publishing experience and how I went from self-publishing to traditionally publishing —that too, with my dream publishing house, Penguin Random House!! In this episode, I go into detail about when I started my writing journey, how I created and increased my audience, the process of self-publishing 5 books and the moment (and the connections) that changed it all for me and finally allowed me to dive into traditional publishing. You will hear about my mistakes, the lessons I learned and the tips that I wish someone had given me when I was starting out. At the end of the episode, there is a wrap up of 5 things that you can do to demonstrate what makes you ‘different’ in this day and age where the influx of writers, artists and creators is abundant online. Make sure you tune in to and wait for these tips which are right at the end —they are incredibly useful!
