Oh Mark, I'm so glad the posts resonate. And, let me share another exchange from last night. Someone asked Hilton what challenges he had faced. He replied, "When you don't have a plan, there are no challenges." I loved that so much. And I also love that you have a ton of different interests and share them with people. That is who you are--and there are readers out there who are just like you. Don't change yourself for the sake of marketing, please!
Charlotte -- This was fabulous. I enjoy this writing adventure so far yet I know I have lacked the discipline of a well thought-out plan. While it is easy to imagine this avatar thing for my future book which since it is in the future can wait. Recently I evaluated my prior writing on Substack and was alarmed how many different topics / tags I have explored. This tells me something. This post arrives at the right time. I am exploring getting help with my plan and that means exposing what are likely my half-baked thoughts to scrutiny. I find I am reading your posts twice now. They seem to contain the actionable stuff I need to hear. Thank you.
I loved this! Such a different and encouraging way to look at marketing your writing. Thank you.
I'm glad it resonated! Thank you for reading!
