The story so far...
So where do I begin?
There's been such a lot happening recently.
OK, the free download promo went well and
up to now I have ten good reviews on Amazon.co.uk, six on Amazon.com and two on
Amazon.de, (Germany ). All five stars except for one on Amazon.de which was awarded
four... which still ROCKS !!
I've also put up a Facebook page for the
book. At first I wasn't sure if it was a good idea, I mean what am I going to
put up on it? I also felt it was a tad tacky, to be honest.
Whatever, a few encouraging words from
friends and I went ahead with it two days ago. At this moment in time it has 89
"Likes", which is pretty cool in my humble opinion.
Any thoughts on this from anyone who has
read it, would that draw more people in??
One of the QDG Old Comrades wrote a good
review on the QDG website. He liked the story, the characters, etc etc, but he
picked up on the proof reading, which is a fair point. The thing is, the timing
was terrible for my book. At the time Tim, the head honcho, had just finished a
messy divorce, was in the middle of a move to America AND
was just about to be married. Not the perfect setting for any book to be flawlessly
edited... which is why mine wasn't :-(
I'd like to be filled with righteous
indignation about it, but I'm not. It's my first book, I'm glad someone took it
on and if a wrongly dotted "I" takes away from the story, then it's
not as interesting a piece as I thought... although it would be nice if it was
perfect, lol.
Right, that's it up to now peeps. I'm just
waiting for the paperback version to come out and then I'll be bothering you
all yet again with links, write ups and begging letters ;-)
