Okay, I have a confession to make. I don’t usually read my reviews. Call it neurosis, or burying my head in the sand, or just plain denial. But who needs the discouragement when the reviews are bad? And if they’re good, I sure don’t need to get all puffed up and start believing that I’m better than I am.
However, I was recently given the “keys” to my web site, and now I’m able to read all the reviews that my readers are leaving for each book. I finally took the plunge, and with one eye closed, peeked at them. And I was blown away. I found them to be so refreshing and encouraging, not at all the stuff that keeps me awake at night.
So thank you so much for taking your time to come on my web site and post a review. I’ll try to make sure they’re posted very quickly after you leave them. I may be forced to edit them down to clips in the interest of getting them all in. And if you leave a bad one or give part of the plot away, I reserve the right not to include them. But I thank you for those, too, because every one of them lifts me up, reminding me that the work I do in isolation is worth something, after all. That at the end of it all is a crowd of people who are reading it and actually enjoying it. Isn’t God good to raise up people to remind me of that?
God bless you, my dear friends. And keep those reviews coming!
