“We're all the same in the dark.”
J.J. Murray, Renee And Jay

“many romance authors seem to recycle their books and only change the cover, the characters’ names, and the settings. The plot, dialogue, and even some of the so-called ‘plot twists’ all seem the same.”

I'm glad you have some help! It shouldn't take too long for them to get back to you. I don't remember exactly, but I would think you should see the new features when you sign in very soon.

I am not adept at this. My 11-year-old has been helping me. He knows his stuff.
