I (Barely) Survived Readers Take Denver 2024

I wanted to share my experience with Readers Take Denver 2024, the horror show of reader/author signing events. I was a signing author at Readers Take Denver in both 2023 and 2024, and I felt that I needed to speak up despite the potential pushback. Warning, this video includes a description of a severe mental health episode that I experienced due to the stress of the event.

Publisher Rocket: https://khall059--rocket.thrivecart.c... A Book A Week: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08F4L3FMG Who Am I? I'm Kate, and I've been self-publishing since 2019. That first year, I had very limited reach. My top month was $88, and it wasn't nearly enough to pay the bills. After having to move back in with my mom, I knew something had to change. So, in 2020, I started a whole new genre using everything I knew about self-publishing and social media marketing. To my surprise, it worked, and over the course of the year I was able to make $50,000, get a house, and my husband was able to quit his job to stay at home full-time. Now, I teach others how they can utilize these skills to do well with their own work. DISCLAIMER: Links included in this description might be affiliate links.
