Welcome, writers and book lovers. The Bleeders is a podcast about book writing and publishing. https://thebleeders.substack.com/welcome: https://thebleeders.substack.com/welcome Today’s guest is author and entrepreneur Ali Kriegsman, joining The Bleeders to talk candidly about her path through traditional publishing, burnout, rejection—and ultimately choosing to self-publish her debut novel "The Raise" on her own terms. In this episode, Ali breaks down what it really took to launch a book without a traditional publisher: owning 100% of her rights, deciding not to invest in PR, building a highly visual TikTok-driven campaign, and treating herself as the CEO of her own book launch. She opens up about the ego hit of not selling her novel on submission, the mindset shift required to embrace self-publishing, and how redefining success helped her rebuild confidence in her creative work. We also dig into the realities of book marketing, the trade-offs between traditional and self-publishing, genre confusion, rights ownership, audiobook decisions, and why writers have to decide what they’re optimizing for—whether that’s bestseller lists, longevity, or adaptation potential.

Domani è il grande giorno! Ci siamo quasi, da domani il libro potrà essere nelle vostre mani ma oggi vi svelo un segreto (che tanto segreto non è), si tratta del progetto “Felici, non perfetti” progetto formativo rivolto a ragazzi e adulti per cui “Sognando Passacaglia” è nato ed è diventato il primo volume di una serie. Tranquilli le storie sono tutte slegate e indipendenti (per cui nessun obbligo a leggere la serie al completo) ma qualcosa questi romanzi in comune ce l’hanno… trattano tutti tematiche vicine ai ragazzi che li aiutano a prendere coscienza del proprio valore durante i passaggi topici della loro crescita e li invitano a esseri liberi di scegliere ciò che li rende felici per poter un giorno essere adulti completi. Non dimentichiamo mai che la perfezione non esiste, quello che bisogna provare a cercare è la felicità (concetto differente per ognuno) che, secondo i messaggi contenuti nei libri, dipende solo dalla capacità individuale di affrontare la vita e superare gli ostacoli trovando le risorse dentro sé stessi. Questo è l’obiettivo del progetto formativo che ho ideato. Se vuoi saperne di più sul progetto o vuoi ospitare uno dei laboratori scrivimi direttamente all’indirizzo mailto:csdr.writingservices@gmail.com.

-5 – Parliamo di TARGET e TEMATICHE Il nostro conto alla rovescia prosegue, mancano solo 5 giorni per conoscere Emy, e oggi parliamo del pubblico a cui si rivolge il libro. Un libro breve, di facile lettura e adatto ai pre-adolescenti che sono in procinto di prendere la fatidica decisione che li condurrà al percorso di studi per le scuole superiori, ma anche agli adulti che vogliono conoscere meglio i loro ragazzi, magari star loro vicino e aiutarli a scegliere un percorso scolastico che sia quello più adatto alla loro indole. Perché “Sognando Passacaglia” è un romanzo ma è anche una storia vera che tocca tematiche care a tutti noi, importanti e determinanti (soprattutto durante il percorso di crescita dei nostri giovani). Quanti di voi ripensano alle scelte scolastiche fatte in passato e rimpiangono di non aver frequentato una scuola piuttosto che un’altra? e quanti, invece, all’epoca hanno operato una scelta di cui si sono pentiti per inesperienza, perché non si sentivano pronti o perché pressati dagli adulti che li circondavano? molti più di quanti lo vogliono ammettere. Nel romanzo vengono proprio tratta queste tematiche dal punto di vista di chi la scelta la deve fare… si parla di percorso di crescita, di realizzazione dei propri sogni e di presa di coscienza del proprio valore, ma anche di dubbi, incertezze e paure che costellano la vita di chi sta cercando di diventare adulto.
