It’s a fascinating thing to me, how some intrepid authors and readers blew this thing up because they wanted it and the industry wasn’t giving it to them. Tell us about why you decided to self-publish LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT? I’ve been a fan of NA since its beginning, and I’ve loved following its evolution and the way it came up through self-publishing. Sounds amazing, right? Comment on this post for a chance to win your own ebook copy. Until the relationship that helped put their lives back together threatens everything they both have left. Until they turn into far more than teacher and student. Good thing he’s not the kind of guy who’d ever reciprocate.

Lizzie Brandt was valedictorian of her high school class, but at Radleigh University, all she’s acing are partying and hooking up with the wrong guys. I’m giddy that she agreed to stop by and share some of her experiences with us!īut first, here’s a glimpse at her most recent book – LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT: Now she’s one of my favorite YA and NA authors. Her blog covers topics not often discussed, like what to do when you have to leave your agent or the tricky etiquette of querying. Not only is she a guru of book recommendations, but she is also full of writerly wisdom and always generous with her time and advice. When I first peeked into the world of publishing, her blog and Twitter feed became my first must-follows. I am so excited to have Dahlia Adler as my guest today. Editor’s Note: This is Self-Published Author Week on The Ball! Each day we’ll feature a new self-pubbed author, and a giveaway of her book!
