We are only 13 days into 2015 and emails are pouring in asking me for things (well over a dozen; three just this morning). So, plainly: Right now, no. No, I will not read your book with a view to blurbing it or introducing it or appearing with you when you come through town on your book tour. I will not join your organisation, judge your competition, or blog about your cause, no matter how worthy. I will not signal boost your initiative or organisation, despite it’s urgency or importance. I cannot come to your school or book club or library.
