L.J.
Thanks for stopping by. Yeah, I feel the same way about those “platform experts” sometimes. Still, everyone is new at some point and just want to know the “right” thing to do. The writing industry seems to have a really long learning curve that always changes depending on where you are in your career.

You make some very good points. I’m most amused by the people selling books that say you have to have a platform before you can publish books. Their platform, of course, is that they’re “platform experts,” which gets a little circular if you think about it too much.
Happy writing.

I have to tell you 1- I’m glad you’re back and 2 – write the book YOU want to write. Those are the books that sell quickly – the ones from the heart and soul. Because they’re different than everything else out in the marketplace. Different is GOOD!

Hey Edie,
Let’s see if I can actually write another book. Feeling shaky about my commitment but I’m moving forward. Thanks for your comment!

Goodluck on your new book. I think you’ve made the right decision. Not all of can fit our writing into a box. I know I can’t.
