Today’s interview is a treat for all the book lovers and word nerds out there! Steph sits down for an inspiring interview with her friend and fellow authorpreneur, Amanda Zieba. As a word nerd, Amanda truly feels she has the best job in the world. Amanda has written 12 books for a variety of ages and genres and now coaches people through the process of self-publishing and with the goal of sharing her knowledge with others so that they can achieve their publishing goals faster and with less frustration. To this end, she has created Story Seedings and The Take Action Author Plan in which she teaches others how to start writing a novel, self-publish their book, market/sell that book and level up their author career. She has presented in dozens of schools and at writing conferences all around the Midwest. She also shares educational resources and recommendations on her YouTube channel and in her TpT (Teachers Pay Teachers) Store. Amanda is a board member of her local writing group (Mississippi Valley Writers Guild), and also a member of the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators. She lives in Holmen, WI with her husband and two sons.
