My experiences in life certainly corroborates this. I've even gotten better deals with someone selling something I was planning to buy anyway, because I didn't immediately respond to their first deal offer. I paused to think for a moment and they must have feared they would lose the sale and dropped the price even more. 😆

By the way, I would recommend trying to interact more on here with other writers. This way you will get to know more of the community and bring more attention to your own work as well.
