“Platform and publicity are interconnected, yet very different. Building a platform is what you do before a book comes out to make sure that when it hits shelves somebody buys it. Publicity is an active effort to acquire media attention for a book that already exists.”
Chuck Sambuchino, Create Your Writer Platform: The Key to Building an Audience, Selling More Books, and Finding Success as an Author

Michel Houellebecq
“Când iubirea a dispărut, viața devine oarecum convențională și silnică. Păstrezi o formă umană, comportamentele obișnuite, un soi de structură; dar sufletul, cum se spune, e gol.”
Michel Houellebecq, Platform
