Pointless

There’s  a novel report (how exciting) coming up next, but it’s been suggested by a world famous author that talking about your book is self-congratulating yourself before publication. If that’s true, then you’re reading the words of a guilty man. There’s been too much waffling going on around here for the last three years. Perhaps starting this blog was a mistake, but how was one to know that hitting the big time in this bid’ness is a pipe dream? How was one to know that having an online presence means jack all unless you’re known in the first place? That getting heard appreciated and noticed is like sucking blood from a stone? Some bloggers quit because they don’t get enough comments. If that was the case here, I’d have quit hundreds of times over. Comments here are even rarer than book sales, and that says it all really! But don't worry about it. All writing is is talking to yourself anyway, so no great shakes. Used to it.

If you’re thinking of getting into writing, don’t.
