Better Shelves
Ameesha Green knows nonfiction, and she's on a mission to help authors create life-changing books so that we all have better shelves. She has over 500 books under her belt (not literally!) having worked at a global publisher, as a freelance digital nomad, and as founder of The Book Shelf. Her aim is to make the publishing industry more accessible, diverse, and sustainable for writers.
In this #self-publishing podcast, Better Shelves, she interviews first-time, award-winning, and best-selling authors to get their top tips on writing, editing, and publishing books. She also shares insider knowledge of the publishing industry that no aspiring author should miss. Through a mix of in-depth "cover-to-cover" interviews and quick "coffee break chats", you'll discover the secrets of self-publishing without having to read between the lines!
So, if you want to write a book that changes your life, changes your readers' lives, or even changes the world, tune into the Better Shelves podcast. With new chapters released every two weeks, you'll be writing the next bestseller in what seems like no time at all.
