We had an author in at work. Nobody had heard of her but she sold about 70 copies of her work simply by by collaring everyone who walked in the door. 'Hi, I'm the author who's signing today', she said. 'It's a true-life adventure', she went on, if they let her, and a surprising number did. There's a moral here for us all - if you're prepared to be a pain in the arse, and let rejection bounce right off you, you can get results.

I knew this already. It doesn't help.
