Honestly, I don't think I'm a good promoter. I spend almost zero time or effort asking new readers to sample or purchase my work. That's not the job of the author. We should write our best material and leave it up to readers to spread the word.

  • -- Hugh Howey 休豪伊

老实说,我不认为我是一个好的推广者。我几乎没有花任何时间或精力让新读者来品尝或购买我的作品。那不是作者的工作。我们应该写出最好的材料,让读者来传播。
