I recently hired a cover artist
to design a cover.
Some other writers told me
“You could have designed
the cover yourself.”
Yes, I could have.
My readers could also write
their own stories.
Doing everything yourself
is bullsh*t thinking.
It’s limiting
and it’s ungenerous.

“Delegate, delegate, delegate.
Hire people who you trust
to make their mistakes right again.
We don’t expect people
to be perfect,
but it’s important to be explicit
that you expect them to screw up
and then fix it
—or come to me and
we’ll fix it together.
At some point
you just have to look away
and let somebody do things for you.”
Delegate something today.
