The publishing experts we follow have plenty of business and marketing advice and news to offer.

Here are the ones that we thought were can't-miss for our authors:

  • Kindle Translate can now take books between English and Portuguese as well as English and Italian (KDP). 

  •  ALLi's Orna Ross interviews author Skye MacKinnon about how indie authors can sell their books in Germany, going far beyond the logistics of having the work translated into a different language (Alliance of Independent Authors).

  • BookFunnel now has a plugin for WooCommerce, making it easier for authors to set up direct sales on their websites (BookFunnel blog).

  • Media coach for authors Paula Rizzo shares tips for creating social media content that lends itself to repurposing and gives ideas on how to be creative about that reuse (Writer's Digest).

  • Dan Holloway looks at new data on audiobook sales from 2025, with the key takeaways being that while the revenue was up, so were the number of titles — dramatically — meaning individual earnings are going to be smaller (Alliance of Independent Authors).
