It's not a questionable offer--(even though I used "right" instead of "write")--I make the offer knowing full well that, for whatever reason, no one is likely to take me up on it--

Of course I know why Kat is not overly eager to admit that she did advertising work--for some reason, it is regarded as being a disreputable occupation, particularly in folkie circles.

Over the years, I have had many musicians, particularly(but not exclusively) folk types, approach me clandestinely, explain that they really were desperate for gigs, and ask for secret, evil advertising/marketing/PR tips--

I was never hesitant to share my sure-fire, never-fail, low-cost, easy-to-operate do-it-youself tips--and, with the predicatability of the sunrise, these same folks never did a single thing I suggested, chosing instead to continue falling in their own self-perpetuating spirals of failure--

Not coincidentally, they also continued to complain about not getting any work, not making any money, and not being recognized for their talent:-)
