“ [ON SELF-PUBLISHING:] If your book fails, it may be because you need to learn more about story structure. Or lettering. Or character design. Or pacing. Or viral marketing. Or money management. Or personal priorities. But if you’ve been learning all those things, you’ll have an idea which one, or ones, you need to work on. And you’ll have a way to go. You won’t be reduced to saying, “I’m better than Celebrity Such-and-Such. If that fly-by-night publisher or evil distributor or soulless corporation had just done right by me, I’d be rich and famous.” Unless that’s what you’re into. Even if you don’t get rich and famous doing your own book, you’ll get opportunities. If you’ve taught yourself how to work, you’ll be able to take advantage of them. You’ll have to learn what to cross out on a contract before you sign it and send it in, but that’s good too. You’ll make money. You’ll have a career.
