Now all I have to do is figure out the most effective way to deploy them.
Do I press them into the hands of all I meet?
Do I save them for giving out to people who sound like they might actually be interested in editorial services?
Do I stick them up on random bulletin boards? (If I were selling a used snowblower, I’d tack a notice up at the local IGA grocery store, but that’s different . . . or maybe it isn’t.)
Do I scatter them broadcast over freebie tables and consuites at sf/fantasy conventions I happen to attend?
This self-promotional thing, it is tricksy and difficult, especially if one doesn’t have the natural temperament for it in the first place.
