Seth Godin, bestselling author, blogger, and marketing expert, discusses the importance of staying true the vision for your book even if it isn't what traditional publishers want. He reminds us to know our audience, know our vision, make sure we are original. Forget trying to reach mass markets that the traditional publishers want ... reach for YOUR target audience. You do this with originality.

Great information! Perhaps passion in a subject will attract others who are passionate about the same thing. Passions that are similar, pooling towards each other like mercury does when it spills and you move it in the same direction, it attaches to its own self by virtue of familiarity.

Empowering and encouraging stuff. I'm glad I signed up. My book is tricky. It looks like a conventional fantasy with youth appeal, but at its heart, it's rebellious and heretical. Time to be upfront and proud about that.
