The Shocking Reason I Stopped Sharing My Phone Number—And What Scammers Hope You’ll Do Next!
Communicating online is much faster and more efficient that talking on the phone, and all parties have a virtual paper trail they can refer to at any time.

BOUNDARIES: When I would give folks my phone number, some authors would contact me about things not at all publishing-related, showing complete disregard for my time. I know they were being friendly, but I have more than a full-time job, and I often don’t have time to chit-chat with folks. We’ve published more than 17,000 print and electronic books in the past 27 years. If all of those folks were calling me day and night, I’d never get any work done.
