It used to be that brilliant works sold themselves through word of mouth. Not anymore. If you want to get noticed, you must go out and promote yourself. Luckily, the internet makes this a lot easier.

There's no point producing a masterpiece if you aren't prepared to put in equal effort with the marketing. Starving in a garret is hugely over-rated! Great authors mentioned in the interview but can I also recommend Judith Lennox, a British author who produces the most wonderful stories. Fascinating interview - thanks.
