I'm excited to try self-publishing just to try something different and see what happens. But for now, my writing is a hobby, not a business. :-)Jennifer Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13300124780126853962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3845972274166862082.post-69122429179944953732014-02-14T17:11:44.303+00:002014-02-14T17:11:44.303+00:00It's can be worrying when people start thinkin...It's can be worrying when people start thinking twice about speaking out for fear of being shouted down by 'the opposing side'. I don't mean when someone is evangelizing without grounds and someone else corrects misinformation. I mean the people just honestly stating an experience that doesn't tally with what others believe or expect. <br /><br />There's room for everyone and every path.

It is wonderful that authors have a choice, and no one path is right or wrong---but some are a better fit for each individual author. <br /><br />Whenever someone is highly outspoken against a group that's made a different choice, in publishing and elsewhere, it makes me think that they must have giant chips on their shoulders that are cutting off circulation and making them cranky. It's fine for people to speak highly of their choice, but why the need to put down others? <br /><br />And yeah, top 7,000 is so far from my personal realm that Huey's stats don't apply.Nicki Elsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11412032684225126973noreply@blogger.com
