The Downside to Having Your Book Published.

After the excitement and joy of having my novel launched on Tuesday I discovered there’s a darker side to the publishing world. Of course I was aware that the world isn’t a perfect place. Though, I wasn’t expecting this to happen to my newly published novel. Who am I? I’m just a very small fish in a ocean of bestselling authors.

I have a habit of googling my name and the title of my novel. It started really when I came across someone reviewing a book I had a story in by chance. Not all reviews are posted on Amazon or GoodReads. Okay, so some may see this habit of googling oneself as touching on being vain, but it can be very interesting to see what unexpected articles you do come across by chance. Unfortunately, it’s not always good things you find out.

I don’t know whether to be flattered or pissed off
