Welcome to Paul's Podcast Diary for Saturday 29th April, 2017.
This diary charts my self-publishing journey – the ups the downs, the successes and the failures.
Everything goes into this diary, week-by-week, but you'll also find it a source of great tips, resources, tools, podcast recommendations and so on.
If I ever miss something out, or you'd like more information, just drop me an email at paul@paulteague.com.

My two books will not be accessed via InstaFreebie, Don't Tell Meg will be free, Dead of Night will be 99p – this is an exercise in driving traffic!
