Some quality advice here for indie authors..I know I've noted down some of the stuff in here. #indieauthors #amwritingfiction
I've been an indie author for a decade now. I've been fortunate enough to have been full time since 2018 and have sold lots of books. Some thoughts and strategies for my first ten years. Long thread incoming:

"Actions, no matter how noble, always have consequences Miss Amaya." It’s 1982 and five kids from a North London comprehensive school have just saved the world. Too bad they couldn't save themselves from what comes next.... Vengeance is coming in 2023 #ChildrensBooks

"If you’re a fan of The Goonies, Indiana Jones etc. Then this is the book for you. This is Britain’s answer to Stranger Things." Looking for a spooky adventure this #halloween ? check out Trail of the Cursed Cobras shorturl.at/ILOT8 #middlegradefiction #kidsbooks #KidsLit
Listened to a great interview with @malorieblackman on the 'How to Fail' Podcast with @elizabday Lot of parallels to my own #writing journey (not the children's laureate part😄 and I still work in IT ). Also my best mate @DavidMonteith used to run an acting class at the City Lit.
