I may just add it to my Kindle list soon. But keep going and keep writing. We are our own worst critics, so don't be too hard on yourself.

I'd much rather sit and chat with you about YOUR book, or your grand kids, or you new book. What are you working on next, btw? <br /><br />Hugs, <br />JenJeanette Levelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12898750484193832082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-34641742125058068842015-03-01T17:59:56.855-08:002015-03-01T17:59:56.855-08:00I haven't published (yet!) but I'm taking ...I haven't published (yet!) but I'm taking notes. To me the challenges of marketing for the introvert has to be one of the hardest aspects of the process. But it's good to be stretched, right? It makes us grow a little bit more. Thanks for giving us insight into what it's all like :-)Kenda Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12972218446945404475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-15353343491953230632015-02-28T12:46:27.930-08:002015-02-28T12:46:27.930-08:00Ah yes, I learned all these things very well by th...Ah yes, I learned all these things very well by the time Uncut Diamonds, my second book, came out. Since I had such a positive reaction to my first book, Farm Girl, it was a real wake up call to get negative response and one star reviews on my second. None of that bothers me now. I just keep writing and moving on. There's always some people who will love our work, others who will hate it. It doesn't stop me from writing!Karen Jones Gowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11378428503220197256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-85023757244902197532015-02-28T06:44:17.112-08:002015-02-28T06:44:17.112-08:00it's all true-good luck!it's all true-good luck!Great Grandma Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791149428495689835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30652620.post-86079704389193181582015-02-27T19:18:43.602-08:002015-02-27T19:18:43.602-08:00Hey Terri -

As you've discovered, being published and marketing takes a lot of time. <br /><br />Please be patient with me. I will read your book. (Friends books go to the top of the pile, but I have a lot of friends!)<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Susan :)<br /><br />P.S. Would you like to do an interview/book spotlight on my blog. I'd love to help you. Contact me via email or Facebook Message. Susan J.

Fortunately for me, my memoir was published at a time when so many people were blogging, and that's what I did, constantly. It paid off. Things have changed, though. My success might not have happened today. And yes, not everyone loved my book. Some of them HATED it. But LOL I survived.<br /><br />BTW Terry, I am a slow reader and life gets in my way, but I'm reading your book. Though I'm not too far into it, I'll keep reading it because I think it's good, and I like it. You've done a fine job. (Yes, we find those little "mistakes" e.g. misspellings, etc. Some of which could be an editorial problem.)<br /><br />KEEP WRITING !!!
