The Enemy of an Author is not Piracy, but Obscurity.

“The enemy of an author is not piracy, but obscurity.”

This is a great quote from Seth Godin, bestselling author of 10 business books. I recently watched him discuss the secrets he used to create multiple bestsellers. Take a few minutes and check out this highly recommend video called, “Using New Media, New Marketing, and New Thinking to Create 10 Bestselling Books.” To watch, click here.

If you enjoy the video, make a point to visit Seth’s blog.
