Check out Jonathan Maberry, Mike Geffner, and Chris Brogan. I’ve learned a ton from these guys.

What I wish is that more authors would take advantage of your knowledge and begin putting into practice what you have come to see, know and have developed an intuition about over the years.

Like we authors can tell when a piece of writing is veering off course in plot or not remaining true to the character established at the outset of a story, those like you savvy in the area of marketing and purchasing trends see changes about to burst on the scene when they are but small ripples in the ocean and afar from land.

We authors need you not simply to learn from, but to observe, listen and read what you are noticing.

Thanks for the service of your blogs and what you offer for fee when requested for consultation.
