You’re not a delusional person.

At least not usually.

But you may be one when it comes to publishing.

And that’s why I made this episode.

It’s based on the book I’m currently writing and it’s about the delusions I see first-time authors suffer from. Seriously, publishing seems to inspire more delusions than Hugh Grant movies!

So here’s your wake-up call. Don’t hit snooze! 

And if you want exclusive stories, resources and info about this book as I write it, you can sign up for that on annadbook.com.

Anna here. Now you may have noticed I’ve never had a sponsor for this show before. And that’s because there’s never been a product that I believe in enough to recommend it to you guys. Well, all that changed when I discovered PickFu. It’s an online polling platform that allows you to get real responses from between 50 and 500 real people when you’re debating your title, chapter name, cover, descriptions, book trailers or anything else you need to decide on. 

Now, why is this so important? Because going to social media and asking, “Hey which do you guys like best” is the absolutely worst way to get an opinions. PickFu is the only way I pick titles because it doesn’t just give you numbers, it actually gives you written feedback. And you know it’s real because sometimes you get harsh stuff like I did on a recent poll. It said: “C is the only one that makes me want to buy it. The others sound like snake oil and seem shifty and cheap.” 

PickFu allows you to target respondents by age, income, hobbies, education level and so much more. Go to pickfu.com/anna and guess what? You’ll get 50% off your first poll. Thank me later.
