On the bright side, reading that my slice of superslices Remembrance of Things Past was initially self-published does soften things a bit should I choose to go in that direction after all.

To Self-Publish, or Not to Self-Publish, That Is The Question Nobody Asks Xmastime
I’ve spent the past year whining and mewling like a baby because a
literary agent to represent my “amazing, masterpiece! debut novel” has
not presented him or herself to me. Meanwhile, everyone keeps yammering
that I should just self-publish it, that’s the way to go these days
anyway blah blah blah. Of course me being old school means I am
horrified of the thought; having it published by an actual company means
I don’t hafta give a shit if people like it, since it was deemed worthy
of a publisher. Self-publishing simply means there’s no buffer between
it and my friends seeing for themselves that the book is terrible and
I’m the worst writer in the world.
