I'm launching a cohort to help first-time authors get their books into the world.

Shoot me a DM if you're interested. I'll be interviewing until I find 10 passionate authors.
The first cohort will be $750 and will double for the next cohort.
If you don't get chosen, you'll be at the front of the line for the 2nd cohort.
