The Reading of Reviews…

To date, I have but a handful of reviews on my novel’s Amazon page. It’s an interesting thing, to read a review of one’s work, and I admit I have done so with my heart in my mouth! Do people like what I have written? Is it compelling? Does the plot have any major holes that I have missed? These are all questions that race through my mind when I imagine people reading my work. So far, people have been generous with their comments, and this has given me much encouragement to continue with my writing. Constructive criticism is always important to me too, as I strive to hone my creative writing skills. So to all of the people out there who take the time and effort to write reviews once they have finished reading a new book, you are definitely doing something worthwhile.
