Hello David,

You have a wonderful and encouraging blog here. Emerging science fiction authors have a long and arduous journey to publishing success. However, it is success like yours that inspire us. Keep up the good work and writing.

I couldn’t agree more, that an author must participate in the marketing of his/her own material. Especially for the new, under-published writer, self-promotion is necessary to get a leg-up. Too many writers expect somebody else to make them famous.

By the way, David, that is one cool hat!

“a bit unhinged” is such a polite way of saying it, I’m totally going to use that.

no matter how socially awkward you feel, there’s always someone within a stone’s throw who’s ten times worse

That’s especially true at SciFi conventions

My favorite recent OSC moment: “You hear about the power outages in Iraq and it’s always somehow Bush’s fault…. The reason the new power systems can’t cope is because the newly prosperous Iraqi people are buying — and plugging in — vast quantities of electrical appliances they could never afford to buy before!”

So if Orson Scott Card says one thing and I say another, you might want to, y’know, strongly consider following his advice instead. (Unless he’s talking about politics, religion, or homosexuality. I dug Ender’s Game and Speaker for the Dead like everyone else, but the fellow is a wee bit unhinged.)

A genuine LOL moment!
