“Reject the tyranny of picked. Pick yourself.” ― Seth Godin, Poke the Box
Hi. I hope I’m sitting up straight and looking at you as opposed to looking at me. Anyway, what I’m trying to do, what I’ve been trying to get it together to say is that I hope at some point to form a community, a community of writers and other creators who could work together to do various things like collaborate on projects.
Hi. Yeah, just the other day, just yesterday actually, I did a book signing event with several other authors at a local bookstore, The Last Word Bookstore at Savage Mill. Anyway, not only did I not market it, I failed to tell anybody on any of my lists. I didn’t put anything on social media. The only thing I did was talk to some people that I happened to be with that weekend and at some other times, and that was all I did. And I thought, my goodness, what has happened to my marketing skills that I’m not doing anything.
Seth Godin blogs daily. His blog posts are short and tend to tell parables. Bur they tend to convey more than could be said with hundreds of words.
There’s a lesson in there somewhere. Keep it short and concise. Say what you mean, and mean what you say.
It’s enough to make me want to take up poetry. Or write more short stories.
Something to think about. 🙂
Hi, everyone! Well, so far, I have three responses to the survey that I sent out last week. And I’m hoping for more because some of these, well, the results I’m getting so far, such as they are, are very interesting.
