WIP Wednsday
February 25, 2009 | WIP Wednesday
Once in while, when I’m not writing, I think about promotion. So far, my only conclusion is I don’t have a clue about what works. The only thing I’m fairly sure about is that the writing has to come first.
Marketing to other writers, via blogs, social network sites, and writing conferences seems pointless to me. But, it’s certainly a popular pastime. Recently, I read a blog on this very subject here .
There’ve been a few writers, who I’d read and enjoyed, that have managed to turn me off of the their work by sharing their views on anything and everything.
As a reader, I’m really happier simply enjoying good books. For example, if I stumble across your personal blog and learn that you’re a bigot, this little tidbit is not going to improve our relationship. On the other hand, if I really enjoy your blog I may be inspired to read your stories. But, if those stories disappoint your blog wont bring me back to buy more.
As an individual, I have thousands of opinions and lots of personal prejudices, and every one of them is subject to whimsical change.
As a writer, I’m fairly careful to stick with what I’m sure I believe when crafting stories for publication.
