Wasting An Expert’s Time

I received a request
from a writer
asking for feedback
on her book description.

Good feedback
takes hours.
I got the impression
she was reaching out to me
to ‘build a relationship’,
not truly for feedback.

So I asked a question
in the middle of the feedback.

The writer didn’t answer
that question
when she received it.
She merely told me
“That’s awesome feedback.
Thank you.”

I won’t be giving her
feedback
or advice again.

There are enough issues
and challenges in this world.
Wait until you have one
before contacting an ‘expert’
for ‘advice.’

Great advice takes time.
Don’t waste that expert’s time.
