Reading Reviews
I ask and ask and then finally I asked the right question to
the right people. What did I ask? Well simply, who wouldn’t mind reviewing my
book…and no I didn’t pay anyone to do it. I just wanted to know what someone
outside of my family really thought of my book. I was connected with a few
people to see if there was interest and ‘tada!’ I got reviews… and honest ones
at that.
I’m thrilled to know that though my book may not be the next
great American novel, it hasn’t brought anyone into fits of rage with complete
disgust. I’m also pleased to see that downloads of my free ebook have picked-up
and will hopefully result in an increase of book sales.
In all I find that writing is still the one thing that keeps
me going in the midst of all the chaos of life. Even though I desperately want
my book to be widely popular and continue to take measures to help that along, I
find that it’s not a bother to me or a worry. I guess I know that deep down in
the back of my mind that no matter what happens I’m going to keep writing. I’m
sure I’ll come across some highly opinionated person, eventually, who will tell
me that my book is crap, but all long as I know I like it and at least five
other people like it, I’m good.
Here are a few links to some of my reviews. Some are repetitive,
but not all. There’s a good mixture of praise and criticism here, which I’m
more than satisfied not to argue with. As a first time self-published author, I’m
pleased with this achievement.
