We're back and I'm so happy to speak to Rhea Kurien from Orion for our first episode, who is possibly one of the kindest people in publishing I have come across. This episode is filled with lots of her sage advice on entering the industry without any connections yet forging and cementing genuine connections with her peers and colleagues. We talk about all the normal woes of rejection but also the ways in which it can at times, lead you somewhere better. We also talk about building your brand (from a publisher's perspective) and how that can be done quite simply - if that is of importance to you as a writer, publishing hopeful of publishing professional.

I hope you enjoy this episode and as always, rate and review wherever you listen to this podcast. Every little bit helps.
