Save vs. Awesome

It’s a follow-up to our Choosing a Faction episode as we answer listener questions. It devolves into personal stories so that’s annoying.

We talk about self-publishing - its trials, tribulations, and hazards. We also talk to a few creators working on their own projects. We talk to Steven Hughes of Utherwald Press about his IndieGoGo project Frozen Skies. And we talk with John Fitzgerald from Burrowing Owl about his Kickstarter project, Busty Barbarian Bimbos.
