READ MY STUFF if you want :-)
Oct. 8th, 2014 11:56 pmI have been thinking a lot lately about how I'm unsatisfied with the degree to which my work is out there. Part of that is my submission rate has been way down; I've been extremely generative, but not so good at just throwing it at any call I can find until eventually something gets chosen.
But there are other kinds of exposure, and I'm trying to find those too. I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for, but part of that I think is just getting eyes on my stuff. I want to share it with anyone who could possibly be interested ever, encouraging people to share it with others, until maybe it gets to someone who has the ability to bring it to the next level. Part of that will probably be getting everything on a specific portfolio website, which I've been planning but have not seriously worked on yet. I should get on that; I do already have a domain.
But also I that means I want you to read my stuff, and share it with as many people as possible. I know some people aren't comfortable with just anyone looking at their work, but know that I am actively seeking as many people to read as possible. If you ever want to see a piece of mine, don't hesitate to ask. If you ever like something enough of mine to share it with someone else, I would be delighted if you did. I know everyone's busy, and I completely understand if someone doesn't have the time for a lot of reading, or if something I've made is not your cup of tea. But if you ever do care to, know that I am honored to have you read anything of mine you want. I welcome it. I owe you for it.
