I responded to another thread earlier today. In it, the OP asked why we wrote. One of my objectives is to be as anonymous as I can. I am not fan of fame/celebrity (if my projects do well). My projects may never be successful.
I have some questions....
1. As readers of novels, would you be offended if a successful author: a) does not provide a press photo of himself (in the book, on a website, other) in any of his books; b) adds very little (of substantive value) to the "about author" section of any of his books; and c) does not participate in community events designed to get to know authors (such as conventions)?
2. What would you think of an author who declined every interview request (big and small)?
3. What is a minimum you would expect a successful author/creator (of children's entertainment) to be known, publicly?
