THis is a great post about how you have to be vigilant as an author and make certain that these “interviewing” opportunities that come your way are indeed good ones. You need to read the post to understand the rest of this blog. (drats – “blogwork” assigned by Nettie!)
I’ve had two authors by the way, Lloyd Dangle and Bob Prosen who both received this same letter that Levitt highlights.
On the upside it’s good news in that they are considered in the same arena as other upper tier authors, on the downside, both declined for the very same reasons that Levitt outlines here.
I espescially like this part at the end, “But the only way you are going to hear my voice on an American Airlines flight in December 2007 is if you and I happen to be on the same flight, and you are sitting in the row in front of me, and I apologize for the fact that my kids have been kicking the back of your seat for the last three hours straight.”
Go and read the article – it’s great insight into all that is PR, exposure and how media really works.
