Another review of my book!

I am so grateful for my fans and the people willing to do reviews. Even when I reviews that say my book is trash I still appreciate the honesty because it gives me suggestions for improvement. I have probably annoyed the heck out of people like my family and friends talking about my book but I can honestly say I am grateful. Grateful for people taking this time to help me. It's great really! So to everyone thank you o very much.

Self publishing: is it good or bad?

Its funny how so many people give me trouble for being a self-published author. I wish I could submit my work to a traditional publisher but the problem is I need an editor. An editor costs so much money. I couldn't afford such a thing. Plus traditional publishers take so much time and u have to submit a query letter and so much more. Most tradionational publishers won't accept anything without a literary agent. God knows what that would require. Most stores won't accept self published books on their shelves unless they make it onto a best seller list. All i can hope is that with publishing in the future those requirements will challenge.

Steve Weber (one of the best authors I know) suggested in his book that if you are an author this is truly one of the best sites to register on. You can make all kinds of contacts on here. I should know I have done so.

Its funny..,,

All these years I like to believe I have built an immunity to people saying things to me that hurt my feelings. Half of the stuff they say I know they dont mean as insults but either way... That in addition to bad reviews. My parents always told me that even if u hate it u got to take the bad with the good. So last night although I had fun I wasn't like the most well-liked person there. But hey at least I showed and had a good time. Worst part is ever since my break-ups (yes it's plural) I have been feeling really emotional vulnerable. I know it's not possible and stupid but I wish I could live a thousand miles away from people that way I wouldn't have to worry so much about the way I act or about my feelings. I wouldn't have to change to suit other people's needs. But hey that is life I suppose. On the positive side although I made a bad impresion on the Johnsons last night at least I still had fun and helped to promote my book. In addition I called the Weisslers apologizing and they got back to me today and said it was okay. I may piss people off but at least I am good at making it right.
