Grandma: I checked your book out from the library, but I wrinkled it a little bit before I returned it, so people would know it's popular. I'm retiring from marketing. Grandma is taking over.

Why is anyone wasting their breath arguing that a "mermaid shouldn't be black" when instead you could be talking about the time Hans Christian Andersen showed up as a guest at Charles Dickens's house and absolutely ruined his life for a month straight

I say this with love in my heart: Every time an author says "My book doesn't have any comps" I think one of two things: 1) You don't read very much, do you? 2) You haven't done even the most cursory of websearches on your topic. HERE'S HOW TO FIND YOUR DAMN COMPS:

I dig reading old public-domain books from the 19th/18th centuries. So I made a little search tool *specifically* for that You type a query, it finds you one book that matches it -- and presents it for instant reading Behold the "Weird Old Book Finder": clivethompson.medium.com/a-s…

One small way I set client boundaries? Asking fewer questions.👇🏻 🛑 "What's your deadline?" ✅ "I can have this done by..." 🛑 "What's your budget?" ✅ "My rate is..." 🛑 "Can you send...?" ✅ "To get started, I need..." 🛑 "Does that work?" ✅ "Let me know if you have Q's."
