Why listen?

Writing and publishing a book can be daunting – where do you start? And how do you stand out in a competitive market?

With the Publishing Performance Show, I aim to answer these questions by stripping back the jargon and simplifying the steps from writing through to marketing your published books.

I share my own experiences while speaking to inspiring authors to understand different ways of approaching publishing, and most importantly how to make sales.

Take your books international

I created BookLingua to help independent authors translate their books into new languages without the traditional cost and wait.

BookLingua combines AI-assisted translation with human editorial review, so you’re not simply translating the words but creating a book that’s ready for readers in a new market.
