Too Much Advice Can Be Dangerous
Back in June I wrote the post, Taking Advice ~ Who's Experience Do You Trust? I featured advice from Joel Friedlander about publishing success.
I also shared some of my experience in learning how to take advice–basically, weigh it against the giver's experience.
Regular readers of this blog know I've left Facebook and Twitter behind and am utilizing Google Plus as my social media platform.
I got a share from Sue Van Fleet yesterday that led to a post from the literary agent Rachelle Gardner, How To Market Your Book.
Lo and Behold, it contains links to 33 blogs posts by writers about marketing and promotion. Whew!!
I've already spent over a year reading and digesting advice from more sources than I can remember; but, I will read through all those posts. Even though I know enough from my previous studies that I won't find much new. Even though most of the advice will be things I can't or won't do. Even though much of that advice will contradict itself. Still, I will read them.
Why?
Because, my experience of marketing and promoting my writing is only a little over a year old and I may just find something brilliant that actually fits my situation and temperament :-)
