about me
I am sorry to disappoint.
However...
I have been busy, and probably will not be able to support very many people for a while.
I don't know what makes me more likely to want to back you. So don't ask. Although... it does make me happy when I see my friends' works doing well. (Hint: That would be Raven Clark and Kevin Wong, but since Kevin Wong is doing phenomenally elsewhere and is likely to get himself an editor's review by the end of the month anyway, I'm most interested in seeing Raven's SHADOWSWORD SAGA go up. If it doesn't, I will be increasingly convinced that Authonomy is really about advertising, not good writing.)
I'm not saying any of the writing here which has done well isn't good, or that what I've just encouraged you to take a look at is perfect. I'm just saying, I wish we could improve this system.
One day, I will post something here too, and maybe I'll join the advertising antics. But... that doesn't mean I like it now. In fact, I don't, so you're probably wasting your time asking when I'm too busy to really read anything. (Of course, there are those who slip through the cracks. Again, I don't know how; don't ask me! I think that's a bit like how the publishing world works...)
Good luck to you!

P.S. You'll probably find that luck elsewhere, for now.
P.P.S. To those authors who I've said I will or might support: this profile message change doesn't change anything I've told you. I still like to help good people, although those good people must be very patient with me until I -- *cough* -- find time. I just don't like people hawking their wares with superior attitudes.
