Recently, I did a guest blog spot on Toni V. Sweeney’s blog about how an author can only be, at most, two of the three following adjectives: prolific, communicative or good. My friend Scott was the one who told me about this theory before, and I asked him where he’d heard it and he had no recollection of ever having this conversation with me, insisting that his memory loss can be blamed on the fact “MY BRAIN CELLS HAVE LONG BEEN BURNED OUT OF MY HEAD DUE TO DRUG USE” (emphasis not mine).
I reiterated the theory to him, and he asked what being “communicative” meant, and I explained it was taking advantage of social networking sites, blogging and undergoing all sorts of marketing antics.
Scott said, “Oh! You meant being commercially successful!”
YES! I do. I’d misspoken.
Now that mess has been cleared up (further proving the importance of utilizing the correct words and terms!), has anyone any thoughts on this Two of Three hypothesis? Can a writer be prolific, good and commercially successful all at once?
