Hey, this Micah and Chelsea! Text us your comments and questions now! We'd love to hear from you, and we'll get back to you ASAP! Long Live the Cult!

Get a RAW look inside self-publishing with this candid conversation between two successful indie self-published authors! Are you thinking about self-publishing? Have you started to write (or plot) your next (or first) novel? Come get the inside scoop on all things self-publishing in this special EXTENDED series by bestselling and award-winning authors, Micah Campbell and CD McKenna!

We don't know everything - and anyone who tells you they do are lying to you - but we've been doing this for a while now and have had some success at it. We've had INCREDIBLE highs and devastating lows, and we've learned a TON through it all.

In this special "Episode #0" we take a look at bad habits and half-truths within the writing community, the poison of following numbers and contributing those to success, the importance of writing your very best every time, EPIC BATTLE SCENES and the respect they deserve, and a whole lot more!

This was a candid conversation that we had before recording our Ichor & Ink Episode this week. We have a pre-session conversation to talk about the industry and the goings on of the week inside indie writing.

Once we finished our catching up, we just kind of looked at each other and said... "should we upload this? Is THIS what we should be doing instead?"

*This wasn't a planned episode, so there is some hasty editing and some names/parts have been removed to protect others.

BUT, if you get something out of this... if this is something that you'd like to see more of, please, let us know... as you'll hear at the end, we have a strong feeling we'd like to move in this direction!

Thank you EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU for tuning in!

We LOVE you!
