    One of the Top 3 Author biz podcasts!
    Thank you Lindsey, Joe and Andrea!! Every episode is packed with insights and helpful tips. I really appreciate you coming back every few months with an update or craft episode. Thank you for all the helpful information and openness about your writing life. (The others in my top 3 podcasts would be The Creative Penn and Self Publishing Formula.)

    Interesting, but talking time unbalanced
    Really interesting podcast. I enjoy it, but wish all 3 hosts had equal talking time.
  • Rediseult
    Loving the author life topics!
    I’ve been a regular listener for a while, and I’ve been enjoying the recent author life challenge topics. The one on burnout was particularly helpful, and who doesn’t love Becca Syme? I also have new motivation to start selling more direct. Thanks for an awesome show!
  • Joe Trent
    My favorite podcast
    This is my go to podcast when I’m in the car. The insights and the information they share on a weekly basis are priceless. Thank you so much!
  • Erin again
    Tune in faithfully
    Really enjoy the show. Find gems in almost every episode. Really like Lindsey and Joe. I grit my teeth through Sarah’s portions. Can only listen to her complain about her “crazy life” so much. And when she talks about how easy writing romance is and disparages an entire genre that has made six figure authors out of hundreds of self published authors, I roll my eyes and fast forward to the good stuff from Lindsey and Joe.
  • Jon-777
    Great
    One of a small handful of podcasts that all Indy authors should be listening to each week. Great content.
  • Brainwave Podcaster
    Inspirational!
    If you’re trying to raise your author game, this podcast has hundreds of tips and suggestions. Listening to these three gave me a lot of ideas of ways to become more prolific — thank you!

    Dream team
    Lindsay, Joseph, and Andrea are the real deal who bring you the most actionable advice on how to actually make money from your writing, 6 stars if I could
  • droopercell
    Very helpful and always interesting
    Practical advice that demystifies the self-publishing process.
  • Sama-rama
    If you are new to writing listen to this!!!!
    I have no idea about the book that industry. But I learn terms, styles, research tips from successful writers. They have fun, too!
  • H. G. King
    Highly Recommended!
    I started listening to this podcast because of Lindsay. I have read 28 of her books and I love the Emperor’s Edge series. The podcast has helped me understand how self-publishing has changed in the last 10 years. I highly recommend it to new and established writers.
  • Stella Bixby
    One of the Best
    This is one of my top 5 indie publishing podcasts. I listen to every episode. It’s informational, entertaining, and encouraging.
  • cpiton
    Such a helpful podcast
    I look forward to each episode of this podcast. The authors ask smart questions and have excellent guests. I especially enjoy the episodes where they answer questions writers have posted on their social media page.

    Best Podcast
    This is the best podcast I’ve come across on self publishing. It is amazing! The info you get in each episode helps so much on building different pArts of your career.
  • Vagrant101
    Good stuff
    May I suggest editing out the breaths? It's pretty distracting.
  • Amy TI
    Great show
    Love the mix of writing craft and the business end of being an author!
  • Shana Gorian
    Fantastic information
    Multi-genre, industry-wide, informative podcast with a wealth of information for indie authors. Can’t get enuff of these three self-deprecating, extremely modest, but amazing authors who are killing it out there. Keep the interviews and insight coming, please.
  • informedlistener8
    The best indie author podcast
    I've been listening to Lindsay and Joe (and their present and past co-hosts) for years. They are an indespendible font of knowledge about the craft and business of indie publishing. I feel like they're my trusted friends and my peers, always there to offer the kind and honest advice. They're asolutely the best!
  • Itsgreattobeme
    Very Good
    Great podcast. Really enjoyed it.
  • T-Rev James
    Great!
    This trio of seasoned authors give great advice and share their experience as indie authors. They also have guests from the industry on to share their perspectives too. One thing that’s really great about them is that they’ve already experienced success, but they’re still eager to learn as things change so they can stay dynamic and poised to continue their success. And they’re sharing it here for free for our benefit! They seem really personable too, which makes listening fun!
  • SurfaLot
    Great practical advice
    Great practical advice from seasoned professionals
  • Sara Blackard
    Listen every week
    This always has great information. A lot of it I don’t use, but I’m tucking it away, making mental (sometimes physical) notes as I strive towards becoming a six figure author myself.
  • Cheesed off big time.
    Great, reliable, fun, believable.
    The self pub industry is both simple and complicated at the same time. These people cut right through it with hands on experience! I followed them when they were the Sci Fi and Fantasy Marketing Podcast and was sad to see them go on indefinite hiatus. When they returned as Six Figure Authors I was on the moon! They’re just as great in this iteration and I highly recommend them for anyone interested in self publishing!

    Actionable Self-Publishing Info
    I really appreciate how the hosts share real numbers and info!
  • J.R. Brienza
    Truly addictive!
    I assumed the self publishing biz would be an uphill climb. What I discovered was that it was akin to Everest. This show is my metaphorical Sherpa. Thanks guys! I’m learning a lot!
  • Roland Denzel
    I love the honesty
    I love this show. I like hearing the ups and downs of being a full-time author. I want to know what I'm getting into, and these three put it all out there.
  • Mrs PiggleWiggle
    Good stuff
    I love this podcast. I think the hosts are honest about their experiences, and are genuine. I’d love to see more episodes on craft and how to write better!
  • NancyInBlue
    High Quality Advice from Experienced Authors
    I was sad when Lindsay and Joe’s previous podcast discontinued, but Six Figure Authors is even better. I like how all three hosts bring in a nice variety of experiences, and the selection of guests has been consistently solid. I never miss an episode.
  • vintagebarrio
    useful info and interviews that get into the nitty gritty
    exactly the sort of author podcast i want—practical, honest, informative. hosts have great energy and complement each other. lots of modesty but also transparency about what works. very helpful and encouraging. keep it up!
  • Renee Gallant
    Knowledge is power
    Great advice from authors who have weathered the storm!
  • Jeanette R.
    Great Show! Glad You’re Back
    As a fan of the Science Fiction
  • Valerie Bowman
    Fantastic
    As a formerly trad-pubbed author who’s making the switch to indie, I’m so glad I found this podcast. It’s full of great advice and excellent and timely topics. Highly recommend!
  • Sean.Marshall
    Down to Earth & Super Helpful
    I came across this podcast just a couple of weeks ago via the Self Publishing Show podcast with Mark Dawson and James Blatch. I heard James interviewing Lindsay there and then Mark came on and endorsed this podcast. Since then, I've been flying through every single episode on my morning walks. The info is great for people who're already somewhat familiar with the writing and indie publishing world. The info that's on this podcast is designed to help authors get to the next level. Super glad to have come across this podcast and hope to be able to actually apply everything I'm learning!
  • jeziah
    Down to earth, straightforward, practical
    I’ve written my first book and working on my second. A lot of the content is great for me because I’d love to write full time and these guys have been through the gamut and they’re willing to share their experience so we can learn from them. Worth listening. Love that they have robust notes. Would love to see the notes on their web site when I only have time to listen. This is great for doing dishes and mowing the lawn, but sometimes in just want the summary so I can get back to writing.

    Real Tips for Indie Authors
    Honestly the most helpful podcasts I’ve ever heard with real tips for indie authors that are authentic low cost ways to implement a plan for success.
  • E.P. Clark
    Very useful!
    Probably the best author marketing podcast I’ve found so far when it comes to practical things to think about and try.
  • audiofilly
    Excellent podcast
    Been missing Jo

    Much needed podcast
    As an author with five published books, I struggle to find information that isn’t the same author 101 stuff I hear everywhere. There is a lack of advice for authors wanting to take their career to the next level. Six Figure Authors fills this void from three unique perspectives.
  • aizjanika
    One of the Best Writing Podcasts
    The hosts have a lot of insights and ideas. They focus a lot on marketing, but they have productivity tips as well. They also tend to be down to earth and not sweat the small stuff or even sometimes the medium-size or big stuff. I loved the former podcast that Lindsay Buroker and Jo Lallo were on (miss Jeff!), but Andrea is a great addition. She has a lot of energy and I enjoy hearing her perspective. Lindsay and Jo have so much experience and wisdom to share. My favorite episodes are when it’s just the three of them or they interview each other if one of them has something unique or special or insightful to share. When they do interviews, they don’t ask all the same questions, and their conversational tone seems to bring things out that you don’t always hear elsewhere. Overall, a really good podcast, well worth listening to, no fluff or filler, although the hosts are personable and fun to listen to.

    Great Content
    I listen to a lot of writing podcasts. So happy I found this one. Nothing but good content on marketing without any fluff.
  • mistahbear87
    Great Information Presented in an Easy Format
    This is a great podcast for someone like me who is midway through their first book and needs to know what to expect as I get closer to editing and publishing. There are both high-level beginner type topics and advanced talks on marketing and distribution. I look forward to each new episode! Thanks for putting this great content together!
  • luvboxerdogs
    Great Information from 3 Authors in the Trenches
    What is great about this podcast is that the 3 hosts are all authors who have multiple books out and make a living from them. They share honest advice and seem to really want to help us. This transparency is refreshing. Since it is a new podcast, it is a bit clumsy at times with awkward pauses, and that is the only reason for the 4 stars. That will most likely improve as the 3 hosts get more used to each other and the format. The information is great, and they are all super nice and knowledgeable. So really—4.5 :)
  • Irishbull81
    One of my TOP FIVE PODCAST PICKS!
    I am in love with the new podcast that was created after the SFF podcast ended. So much great information from these hosts. I can absolutely depend on their weekly episodes to be chalk full of so much information to absorb from which I can learn and become a better author and marketer. I implore every author who wants to take their career to the next level to listen and learn from this show. I am so happy to have these knowledgeable voices back.
  • SaltLifeLW
    This is so money!
    I was a huge fan of Lyndsay and Jo’s sci-fi and fantasy marketing podcast, so I was thrilled to find this. Andrea is a great addition. This is a must listen for authors serious about their career. So much valuable info in each episode!
  • Tracey Devlyn
    Advanced Content for Creative Entrepreneurs
    I really appreciate the authors sharing their views on conferences they've attended and what works for them and what doesn't. Many thanks to Lindsay, Jo, and Andrea--I look forward to listening in each week.
  • LeighWalker
    Great Information for Indies
    Love the podcast and the hosts. Lots of good ideas to jumpstart my normal routine. Thanks!
  • Debra clopton
    Loving The Podcast!
    I am thrilled to have a new podcast on indie publishing. As a 6 figure romance author myself it is wonderful to have a podcast focusing on topics that interest me. Marketing, productivity, creativity and taking it up a notch. I'm excited to see what is coming. Sadly many of my favorite podcast have gone away and it's been hard finding good ones lately. I've enjoyed the first 7 episodes and looking forward to hopefully many, many, many more!

    Great Podcasts For Indie Authors!
    Love how focused and knowledgeable the authors are on this podcast. They get right down to business and thoroughly discuss the topics. I just recently found the old podcast two of the authors had going for a few years. Well, after binging the podcast, I got to the point where they said they were taking a break. I was sad because I really enjoyed the specific insights the writers provided, and I liked how focused on topic the episodes were. I am SO excited that these guys have a new podcast! Thanks for giving us newbies such great info about the indie writing business!
  • Kory S.
    For writers who want to make money
