Introducing Katie Shelby - New "super dooper" guest blogger.



Do you know Katie? Well if you are an indie author, you honestly should! 

Katie is FANTASTIC! She is every indie authors best friend... Her support never ceases to amaze me. So with that, I invited her to join me on my blog - - and thankfully she said yes!

I was very pleased to do this interview with Katie, because I wanted to take this opportunity to get to know her better and introduce her to you - -  drum roll - Miss Katie Shelby, whom I fondly refer to as "Buttons".
