I have learned so far from nearly every source that If I want to make it as an author, whether traditionally or self-published, I have to market myself and my work.

What does that mean? That means putting myself up here on display for all to see.

It means hoping that my interests & ideals, my awkward quirks, my triumphs, and my incessant groanings about the woes of writing – you are forewarned – will find a place and people with which to establish a sense of companionship.
