For another, I only have so much vacation time.<br /><br />So, I try to strike a balance between online and in person, but actually the balance is tilted a lot in the online direction. <br /><br />The same with publishing. So far I've done small publisher and self-publishing. One day, maybe I'll be doing large publisher also, if they're still around by then. With so many changes going on, it's good to keep all avenues open.<br /><br />Morgan Mandel<br />http://morganmandel.blogspot.comMorgan Mandelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10118929301591850918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-7243093120926823912010-01-13T16:20:39.754-06:002010-01-13T16:20:39.754-06:00Do you spend a lot of time on the road, doing book...Do you spend a lot of time on the road, doing book signings?

She says it's based on sales records. She also says there are plenty of exceptions.
