Publishing and the Opinions of Others

Posted on November 6, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

I know this will ruffle some feathers.  I’ve seen many people say that they don’t care about the opinions of others.  They write and publish for themselves.  Doesn’t matter what any says.  These authors don’t care.  At least, that’s how … Continue reading →
