Bookcast 93: Snippets of Life as a Self-Published Author and Book Enthusiast

Books by DL White Bookcast

On this episode, I share a glimpse into my experiences, challenges, and triumphs as a self-published author and passionate reader. I updated listeners on my goal of reading 175 books and wrap up my July reading list.
Find that list in the show notes on my website: Booksbydlwhite.com/bookcast/93.

I also discuss the anxiety of the earnings reset at the beginning of each month, and I share my efforts to navigate platforms like Substack while managing my writing and publishing journey. I also discussed frustration with the paywall economy and the desire to support black authors and readers within digital platforms while everything of value is for sale.
