Quick Fingers or Slow Hands? How Often Should Authors Publish Books?
New Year, New Topic, Same Fascinating Conversations!
Sarah and Skye kick off 2025 by diving deep on how fast romance authors should publish books. In the Bookstagram/Booktok era of rabid fandoms, authors are working hard to make sure they give their readers more, more, more.

We tackle all these questions and more!
