If you have made mistakes, even serious ones, there is always another chance for you. What we call failure is not the falling down, but the staying down.

Re:I Keep Running and Running and Running

Good column, Elton. I agree with your general conclusion that courtship is preferable over the cattle call or guy you know.

HOWEVER...

I should point out that a cattle call was how I ended up working with the storied Noel Tuazon. This was before he had anything out like Elk's Run or even Western Tales of Terror, so otherwise we might have missed each other. Instead, we're now working on our sixth project together. So sometimes the cattle call can help you find a special artist you didn't even know you were looking for.

So really, any of the approaches can work. But by and large the courtship definitely seems to provide me with better results more often than the other two approaches combined.
