Great idea, Paula! He would have realized pretty quickly, right? The groups that allow such stuff are the ones I don’t even visit anymore. Who wants to weed through it all to find that one useful thing? Assuming there is something useful, that is.

LOL I terrify my friends into marketing. If it works, why not? 😉

As soon as he did that, he’d realize why it’s not a great or easily sustainable idea.

Funny thing happened with me over the past couple of weeks. When I decided to take a little time each week to work on my script stuff, and maybe even steal a little time for knitting, five different editors asked if I was available for assignments. None have been big assignments (but most are fun), but the big part is that none were based on my pitches. The editors came to me. I could get used to that dynamic, but I’m still marketing. (So Lori doesn’t kill me.)
