About this episode
Part One of Two “Currently …. we’re at a unique industry-wide inflection point. Whether you’re a new or established author doesn’t matter. You have the opportunity to grow your career much faster than under normal circumstances.” ~ Nicholas Erik Nicholas Erik joins us again with fantastic insight into the impact technology is having on the publishing world — right down to us as individual authors. Now this isn’t a pro or anti AI episode — it’s about understanding how we as authors can adapt to these technology shifts, overcome our pain points through technology, and how the companies we’re dealing with on a day-to-day basis are utilizing it. Nick makes a really compelling case that the next three years could be a once-in-a-career moment to level up, and he’s got this beautifully simple framework for cutting through the noise and focusing on what actually moves the needle. And we had so much to talk about that — for the first time in a long time — we’ve split this into two episodes, because we didn’t want to cut a single thing. Whether you’re building to six figures or already there and wondering what’s next, this one’s for you.
