My new book “Backlash” just went self published on
Amazon. As usual I received the same responses from literary agents; they like
my writing but just can’t publish me right now. I follow JA Konrath and several other successful self published authors blog and
enjoy the motivational push self publishing. It may take 10 years…I
don’t know. But once a writer you have this overwhelming desire to have people
read and comment on your books.
Okay, I’ll admit my first book “A shutter in war”
was a real stinker, begging for a rewrite, which is what it’s getting right
now. But I’ve noticed a vast improvement on my new books. Many thanks to that
reader out there that was kind enough to lambast me with a horrible review, but
it was just what I needed. It really helped me in my writing. He was brutally
honest in telling me my writing lagged, but that’s what a writer needs to hear.
It makes you re-evaluate yourself, and if you can’t handle being criticized,
then you better give up writing. So please, feel free to lambast me with your
opinions on any of my works.
One day, I will be a well known and popular writer;
it’s just a matter of time.
