Vantage authors have until January 31, 2013 to get back any their rights to their books!!! Publishers Weekly has a post reminding Vantage authors, and I’m adding an extra kick in the pants.

Carolyn Henderson has a very nice post on “Talking to Yourself – It’s Not Always Weird” over at Fine Art Views, which I think makes some excellent points on taking care of you. This is a “technique” that serves everyone who wants or needs to promote him- or herself, their art, their book, their business. I’m in the middle of building my own business plan, and Carolyn’s words resonate with what my adviser, Rick Skurla, has to say.
