I'm actually a freelance publicist, an advocate to help authors NOT get too burned out...I hope. If you're interested in interviewing me for your blog so I can talk more, I'd love to hear from you.

And ur right - Rome wasn't built by 1 person - why not ask for help so I can stick to more important tasks - like actually writing!!Jessie Harrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11581727105030086814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1311335624850028436.post-72132819218923707382011-07-19T05:00:29.095-07:002011-07-19T05:00:29.095-07:00I take time away from it here and there.

I schedule my events far enough apart that I'm excited to do them--one or two a month right now.<br /><br />Great post, LM!Kelly Hashwayhttp://www.kellyhashway.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1311335624850028436.post-25434446197673351902011-07-19T04:42:11.673-07:002011-07-19T04:42:11.673-07:00Wow- such wise words.
