This is the Path to Published podcast with Ashley Fenker, a series about my journey to self-publish my essay collection with hopes to connect with readers, sell books, and land a traditional publishing deal. Get ready for a deep dive into the intersection between creativity and business, and a dash of real talk about building a career as a working mom.
What if I told you that there’s one simple way to land your next big “YES”? I’m dramatically oversimplifying this, but seriously, there’s one small thing you can do today that you don’t want to skip. In this episode, I’m sharing 5 steps to follow when asking for endorsements or testimonials (also known as “blurbs”) from authors and editors who agree to read your book before it’s published. Listen in for a discussion about what endorsements can do for your confidence and authority. This episode is perfect for anyone who is ready to believe in their work and take the next step in building credibility. Plus, spoiler alert (!!), I’m announcing one endorsement for my book from an author who I truly admire.

Check out the blog post I wrote in 2019 that still sits in the #1 SEO ranking when you Google “write for Oprah.” This one post brings in hundreds of readers to my website every year.
Here is the talented and generous writer who generously endorsed my book, and I talk about in this episode. I highly recommend binging both of her books. More exciting news on her glowing review coming soon!
