He compares the process to filling a bucket with an eyedropper until it finally overflows, at which point momentum takes over. “You would think the media would like to write about something new, but it doesn’t,” he says of fighting pop culture inertia. “It likes to write about what everybody else is writing about.” On the other hand, the right author at the right time can “fill the bucket” immediately, which is why Mettee is always on the lookout for what he calls “the good platform,” an author with a built-in fan base or other surefire credentials.
