How To Shift Gears From Writer to Book Pimp
Writing’s a bitch, but it’s not the hardest part. Once you finish, it’s time to sell. Did you catch the cartoon in the most recent New Yorker? It features a hapless author sitting before a willing publisher with a bracing caveat.
It’s hard out there for a writer. I’d like to share what I’ve learned to help other writers. See this interview I did recently with lovely writer Deanna Cameron for her new blog Writely So. She posed great, thoughtful questions.
For the new year I am taking a vow of brevity. I promise to do more frequent posts, like this one.
Let me know your thoughts! Comments welcome. I’d also love to know what you want to see here. I have a list of new blog posts TK, covering Love Junkie’s odyssey and other topics. Stay tuned!
