We are taught as children that talking about our accomplishments in a positive light is "bragging." There is a line between bragging and self-promotion. Promotion is a professional necessity. We have to put together press kits, press releases, and promotional materials to get our name in front of editors, art directors and gallery owners. It is not bragging to talk about what you do and how you are unique. There is no need to be pushy, but there is a need to be professional and consistent.
