M: Hi, Cathy. I've been busy with my book.

W: Haven't finished yet?

M: I will have in a few days.

W: Are you going to advertise it yourself?

M: Hmm, some friends suggested I should, but I'm still in two minds about it.

W: If I were you, I would.

M: Thank you for your advice. I think I'll market it.
