This is incredible.
Something I wasn’t prepared for is how much *audacity* it takes to be an author—or even an artist—in publishing. You gotta be ready to pitch yourself to anyone at any time, arrange & set up your own events, build your own hype, all while burying your insecurities. It’s a shockingly extroverted job.
