This past weekend I was at the Miami Dade Book Fair that happens once a year in Miami. And on two of those days, they have a street fair with booths/tents. Some of them are just generic venders and publishing companies. But another fair amount are actual authors that are trying promote their book.
And although I would love to stop and talk to each one, it’s almost impossible, and also impossible to really buy everyone’s book. The one that really broke my heart was this mother and a child, about 8 years old. As I was walking by their booth and looking at their book, she says “welcome, come meet the star of the book” :/
So I would say I feel bad for new authors that are still trying to get a book out.
