Patricia:

Hello. I'm glad you appreciate my review--which book was it? I'd be happy to help, but I must say that I'm not a great model of a successful writer or publisher. I don't believe I have any particular wisom or insight to impart. However, one thing strikes me. I notice that you "avoid social media." I don't avoid it, exactly, but I am not especially good at it. Nevertheless, my publisher tells me constantly that building a "brand" via social media is essential. For what that's worth. (less)
