RE: "Why my amazing post received just a few cents?!" - Social Media for Dummies ;)
I know that book. There's plenty of that exceptions, surely. Don't see what is supposed to mean, regarding my post, though
That not all writers want to network, and this most definitely does not make them dumb. Some people just write because they like it.
Thanks to the internet we have E.L James being one of the most well paid writers-- and I think we can all agree that she is far from even being remotely good... But, she is very good at this networking game.
TLDR; being good at marketing your work on the internet will only lead to temporary (monetary) success but is in no way an indication of quality of work.
I've not said in any way that a writer must network or even find readers.
and obviously I don't think that getting feedbacks means quality.
Then I didn´t understand the point of your post.
the point, as you can read, is that a writer that actually wants to find readers and have feedback (success, sometimes) has to do certain things, or to find someone that does it for him (a mom can be enough, sometimes ;) ). if he thinks to get readers keeping his work in a drawer (or just uploading it somewhere on the web), well, he is a dumb for sure.
