Aimed at aspiring and first-time authors, she breaks down the differences between Kindle Unlimited and going wide, explains key publishing terms, and shares practical strategies for building visibility on a realistic budget. Drawing from her own publishing experience, Inger discusses websites, ARC readers, author communities, and the mindset needed to keep moving forward when sales are slow and self-doubt begins to creep in. Talking Points &amp;nbsp;• Publishing is about both creating a great book and helping readers find it. • Understanding the difference between Kindle Unlimited and going wide. • Choosing the right distribution strategy for your genre and goals. • Building an author website and email list as your online home base. • Using ARC readers to generate early reviews and launch momentum. • Marketing is about building relationships, not just selling books. • Focus on a few social platforms where your readers already are. • Community and networking can support long-term success. • Most authors grow their audience gradually over time. • Persistence, patience, and continuing to write are key to building a writing career.
