...SolveThe Existential Dilemma… of popularity versus substance.
“Ultimately however, I believe one should have faith in what they write. One should be able to tell themselves: ‘Yes – I think what I write is good’ – regardless of whether it gets many ‘hits’ or not.
It is of course important to take account of feedback
(‘Why are people not reading what I write?’)
but faith is more important.”
