If given the opportunity, meet your idols and gush like the village idiot. Some of them are still people and like to be reminded why their publicists dragged them to New York.

BEA tips from Shelf Awareness (via rachelfershleiser)

Love this tip. I gush at my idols whenever possible. Everyone likes to hear that their work has made an impression. And these are writers, after all, who almost never get recognized on the street. Give them some glory!

Huh. I’ve always lived in mortal fear of gushing too much. Maybe it’s because I burst into tears when I met Tom Robbins, the primary literary idol of my 20s. AWK-WARD.
