The Guardian of London writes about how when authors become reclusive, it adds to their mystique, and it mentions a writer who recently started refusing to do interviews.

This is a good idea. Let it be known that I will not do any publicity for my next novel, and in order to make everyone aware of this, I will be sending out a press release to major newspapers across the country...in addition, I will hold press conferences over the next month in each of the 50 states and Texas. Books will be available at each "reclusivity press conference" for signing and a $12.95 fee. For more information, please contact my publicists.
