We spend a lot of time on the Bound + Determined podcast talking about strategy–for your book concept, proposal, platform and business.

But at the heart of it, writing is an art! Sure, publishing is a business, we need a strategy to meet the demands of the industry–but the creation, the ideation, the writing, is an art!
