A friend of mine who is a graphic designer may team up with me to do covers, layout, etc. and I think she will be better at it than I am--that may help.

But I think I'd be bad at drumming up business for myself.<br /><br />I chose "A" -- it's neutral. But I kind of like the idea of giving your customer a three question poll that gives you a feel for how they like their feedback. Or I suppose one could ask.

I knew my spoken Texas-native grammar was less than ideal, but I thought I did pretty well in writing until I took this course. <br /><br />Also, I'm glad to know you would also pick option A.

I am an introverted pragmatist, which means I like to get to the point already, and you're not going to offend me by telling me the truth.<br /><br />However, I've found out the hard way that most people are not like this -- writers especially.
