Target the "Wrong" People

THE TWEET: This Tweet is using all the right words, but sending all the Wrong Signals. That’s OK: There must be a few “Wrong” people out there.

THE TAKEAWAY:

I have up-loaded a good portion of my best writing to AMAZON and SMASHWORDS, but it mostly just sits there. I have no clue how to draw attention to it, no clue how to promote it. Everything I try is the wrong thing.

I don't "get" the whole eBook thing. On my Dark Days it just looks like the Slushpile went online.

I'm actually hoping that I don't find a way to make a living at eBooks, because I'm pretty sure it would involve spending 12-14 hour days doing all the things I hate.

What I really want to do is write the first draft to a new novel.

Historically, my MO has been:
1) write a novel
2) try to sell novel
3) give up

Hey, maybe I will win the boobie-prize: success after I am dead.

P.S. - Oh, yeah, about "Wrong" People, sorry, I got distracted. The "Right" People are going to be too busy for you, or you're going to need an introduction by a Power Player or a Mafia Don…or you may as well just go on doing your own thing (which is "wrong"), pissing people off right and left, hoping that you accidentally stumble into an insider who "gets" you.
