I have the exact same thing, and have apparently passed it on to my daughter. I really hate talking on the phone to someone I don't know. I LOVE email. <BR/>A few months ago I had to prepare my first book proposal for my agent. I don't mind telling you that I hated it. Especially the author bio. I had to really wrack my brain to think of things to write about. I write fiction and I'm not published yet, so I don't really have a platform per se. I realize once I am published that I will actually have to leave the house and meet people who want to buy my books...that's slightly more terrifying than talking to them on the phone! So I'm looking forward to your coaching lessons and I hope you've got some tips for us introverts!Catherine Westhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16075571140881352399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8113039007643369603.post-41195583662681729862008-05-21T06:42:00.000-07:002008-05-21T06:42:00.000-07:00It's nice to meet you here, Tiff!I'm so glad you d...It's nice to meet you here, Tiff!<BR/><BR/>I'm so glad you don't intend to teach brow beating, telemarketing, etc., as I too am more the reserved type and would much rather sit and trust God to drive the masses, than work to help Him send them. <BR/><BR/>But I know He asks us to work for His good, so I'm quite interested in learning what you have to offer, to help me market all He has given me. <BR/><BR/>Will you be looking at marketing of blogs, as well as novels through these Tuesday sessions?Eileen Astels Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11098531184044931737noreply@blogger.com
