Elisabeth and Merianna talk about vanity presses. They talk about how in the age of self-publishing, there are a lot of businesses that have crept up who only aim to make money off of authors rather than helping authors. They talk about the importance of checking a contract closely, especially if you have to pay upfront to ensure that you are keeping all your rights. They talk about print rights and digital rights. Of course, there is conversation about running, smoothies, and dogs woven into their conversation.
