This week, on ALLi’s Self-Publishing Advice Blog, our news editor Dan Holloway talks about the joy of students with open minds.

Dan also talks about our imminent Author Fringe event, bookshop controversies, the decline in colouring book sales, the rise of young debut authors in India, and the 9th Smashwords Read an Ebook Week promotion. And, as ever, he rounds up with the latest self publishing news for indie authors everywhere.
