I figure that's more important than any of it. I guess the best method for one may not be for another. <br />Good luck on figuring it all out. Hey, when you do, let me know what works best.

Then maybe reconsider. ;)<br /><br />But anyway... I haven't really been looking for a home for my book yet, but maybe the time will come soon. I've just finished a huge revision and I've send the manuscript out to a few beta-readers!

For me, I avoid extremes, and stick with what feels right.<br /><br />As for looking for a home for my books--I am still on the trad publishing path, but will be exploring self-publishing next year if the agents don't bite. ;)<br /><br />Great post!Marie Andreashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11422636765580836358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945251853357898910.post-65897692175927516872013-02-15T18:48:00.769-08:002013-02-15T18:48:00.769-08:00Hi, my name is Paula Hardin and I use to be a memb...

However, I do think that Neeson is getting a bit too old for these roles even though he just started it all up.
