Plotting

By Katie Sadler

Get helpful emails every week or two about books, book marketing, and life as a self-employed solo mum. Upgrade to paid for weekly office hours and regular accountability sessions with a book marketer with over 15 years of experience in the industry.

I love reading about the things that spark Katie's imagination, from books + TV to musings on friendships, life and more.
