EPISODE 5: What life is like as a full-time author
Welcome to the Rage Against the Manuscript podcast. Join me – bestselling indie author Steff Green – as we talk about the highs, the lows, the cat piles, the existential angst... I bare all about what my 2 1/2 years as a full-time author have been like. This podcast is packed with advice if you're dreaming about leaving your day job.

The importance of planning adventures.
"Right now I’m dealing with a big ole dose of existential angst. Because I wrote a hit series last year, I made nearly $250k. Then that series finished and POOF, all those readers disappeared."
