Subscribers

How many subscribers do you now have to the blog?

Taylor Swift’s lucky number.

Thirteen?

Yes.

Since when? When did you last check?

Maybe a couple days ago? (Waves to new readers) Hello 👋 😊

Do you have any idea who they are or might be?

My theory remains that they are bots… at this low of a number… I may have triggered certain keywords or something and somebody’s PR tracking bot is following me in case I say anything?! That’s all that I’m assuming with a follower count of 13… 🤷‍♀️

You don’t think they’re real people?

I have no idea… and this isn’t the kind of thing I can muscle test. It’s just too random,  how would I know for sure? I don’t 🤷‍♀️

Your blog is growing…

From 7 to 13 subscribers?! That’s not much… LOL… 😅

But it’s not stagnant, it’s growing…

Meh, I’ve been through this with Tik Tok… 🤷‍♀️ I don’t think it’s a big deal until I’ve reached… a million?

A million readers?

Yeah… then I would probably re-think about what I’m writing more seriously? Ask for a literary agent, MAYBE…?! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

What does an agent do?

They get to help me negotiate whatever… you know, I haven’t even worked closely in the publishing industry for decades now. But I’m assuming there’s now a lot to negotiate with things like conversions to eBooks, audio books, etc… how will the book be marketed? Social media? What commitments would I be agreeing to in a book tour? If it comes to that? A lot to negotiate before signing a contract, right?

Oh…. hmm… 🤔….

I have 13 followers, babe… we can relax 😅
