About this listen
In this episode of Indie Author Showcase, host Chad Robert Morgan sits down with Doug Brode, award-winning indie author and veteran Hollywood storyboard and concept artist whose credits include Star Trek, Iron Man, Thor, Harry Potter, and more.
Doug joins us to talk about Shelli, his breakout sci-fi mystery featuring a synthetic detective navigating government conspiracies, political intrigue, and the uneasy evolution between humans and machines. The novel earned 2nd Place Book of the Year honors and has become a Kindle Unlimited standout with over a million pages read.
We dive deep into:
-
How Shelli evolved from an unproduced TV pilot into a bestselling indie novel
-
Doug’s crisp, dialogue-driven writing style and why it mirrors his android protagonist
-
Lessons learned from decades in Hollywood about why creators should own their work
-
The realities of indie marketing, Amazon ads, Kindle Unlimited, and convention sales
-
What actually works (and what doesn’t) when promoting books in today’s market
This is a must-listen episode for indie authors, sci-fi fans, and creators navigating the crossroads of storytelling, technology, and independence.
