A Funny Thing Happens When You Give Away Books

open books

I don’t, as a rule, advocate doing all your work for free. Nothing chafes me more than people who reach out to me, asking me to guest blog for this or provide content for that, and for payment, they have this wonderful thing called “exposure” instead of cash.

‘Cause that buys a whole lot of groceries, let me tell you. I pay my mortgage in “exposure” all the time. Continue reading

Excerpt Tuesday: An Outsmarted Hunter Makes A Formidable Foe
