— Patrick Rothfuss"I know there's a lot of talk about self-publishing right now. Everyone's giddy with the possibilities.

I have students that I tell, "If your book doesn't sell or you can't publish it, write another book. Quit sitting around." The publishing world is a business, but it's not any big deal. An editor is not your guru. Your agent is not your guru.
