Selling your art is not selling your soul.
It might be enough for some to write, but most of us
want to market our completed works. Some writers excel at selling themselves
and their works. Others are not extroverts, preferring a quiet existence
dedicated to writing. Knowing how to best market yourself is essential,
even if what you come to know is that you need someone else to do the
selling!
