Self-promotion for people who hate self-promotion

About this episode

Maya C. Popa and I talk about self-promotion for the self-promotion averse.

Find out why self-promotion is all about bravely falling backward into a ball pit and why we can blame our dislike of it on the Modernists, Roland Barthes, and the Iowa Writers Workshop.
