Recommended Product of the Week - The Alliance of Independent Authors
Laura finds being a member of The Alliance of Independent Authors very helpful. The advice, supportive guidance, and the range of resources she has found within a welcoming community of authors, she finds, is worth exploring if you are an independent author. Not only can you join other developing writers if you become a member of The Alliance of Independent Authors, but by using our link, it helps support the work of Derbyshire Writing School. Thanks!
