The Entrepreneurial Writer

140609_r25118_p233Margaret Talbot writes another article about John Green. I’ve read four or five articles about the dude, but I’m still interested.

The neat thing about Green is that he made YouTube videos, wrote books, and did website stuff and then tied everything together to snowball his success. It’s like equivalent of the J.Lo singing (sort of) pop songs, marketing perfumes, and selling t-shirts at Kohl’s.

I suppose that writers are artists and aren’t supposed to be carefully packaging themselves like this, but they do.
