One Year of Being a Full-Time Author | Self-Publishing
I can't believe I've been a full-time self-published author for a year! It's been a weird, but an incredible year of writing and I'm so grateful I get to do this as my job. Thanks so much for being here. I appreciate you! Snail Mail: Courtney Young | PO BOX 697 | Groves, TX 77619 Do you have a question about self-publishing? ASK ME ANYTHING FOR MY Q&A MONDAY SERIES: https://forms.gle/fVbKesmhhCcUDBeP7 //A B O U T M E// Pen names: Lyra Parish & Kennedy Fox (we're an author duo!) I've been in the indie scene since 2011. I published my first romance novel in 2014 (Weak for Him). Under Kennedy Fox, we've made USA Today 4 times since 2017. With Lyra Parish, I've made top 100 several times on Amazon. I unpublished my Lyra Parish backlist in 2020 with zero regrets. You can watch that video here: https://bit.ly/3k8P6pa Want to find our Kennedy Fox Books?
