As some of you may know, 2014 was a big year for me. I finally had my first book in English, and in Australia, published: The Dangerous Bride. Most of the year had been dominated by preparing for this moment – editing the book, negotiating front and back covers, developing the so-called author’s platform, writing articles and blog posts related to my memoir. The aftermath has been similarly intense. I’d love to share with you some lessons I learned from these experiences.
