What is the best way to get your book out into the world? Traditional publishing, hybrid publishing or self-publishing?
Maybe your story is a book, but what if it could also be a play, or a film?
Today we hear from special guest Maura Pierlot, acclaimed author and playwright, about her publishing path, what it’s like writing across multiple forms from plays to picture books, and so much more.
We discussed:

- How philosophy and intuition inspire and influence Maura’s work.
- Maura’s experience of all pathways to publication: traditional, hybrid and self-publishing. Which path led to the best outcome as an author and for readers?
