LWW27: Should You Go Into Kindle Unlimited Or Not? - a podcast by Lesbians Who Write

It's August, and our intrepid duo are struggling to get back into their routines after a summer of traveling and conferences. TB's week has involved insect bites (bad), terrible cookie dough ice cream (unspeakably bad), and getting her next book, Reservations of the Heart, ready for launch (good!). Meanwhile, Clare's week involved a trip to the Cotswolds (good), writing her new book (good), and sending the wrong file to her audio narrator for You're My Kind (very bad). She still hasn't won Hamilton tickets (fml), and neither remembered to take any photos. It's like they don't own smartphones. They need to be more millennial.



On to the main topic, both Clare and TB reveal how Kindle Unlimited has changed the face of indie publishing, and what their experience with it is. TB is all-in bar one book, going exclusively with Kindle Unlimited for selling and streaming. Clare has launched her last four books in KU but only leaves them in there for a certain time period before taking them wide to the other platforms. There are pros and cons for KU, but none of it makes a difference unless you've got a good book to sell, with strong editing, an appealing cover, and intriguing blurb. Are you bored of us saying that yet?
