This one really speaks to me. Not that I'm a brilliant author (I can punch my weight), but that the self-publishing route is so heavily dependent on building a following via platforms which are engineered to be all consuming. We talk a fair bit about patrons from a monetary perspective, but really, what an author often needs is someone who simply believes in their work and can highlight it. Here's the thing, though. It has to be genuine all down the line. The author has to do the work and produce something worthy. He or she has to build honest, organic relationships that are saturated in mutual goodwill and are not purely mercenary. There has to be patience and persistence, but also grace and the ability to roll with the downturns. The simple fact is sometimes Joseph gets forgotten by the cupbearer, and we have to be okay with that till the time is right. The idea of "chasing influencers" always hits me wrong, because it seems to set out from a place of using people. At the same time, good people on this platform or anywhere else who have been blessed with influence can be really helpful to those who are trying to fight the good fight by bringing beauty back to the fore.
