I believe in a lot of cases, you get what you put out.

Some people put so much energy into being negative and mean, and trying to get other people to act that way, too. I admit, I have my bitchy ranty days where I wish things were going better and I can be competitive, but I would never ask my readers to start a slam campaign on my behalf or attack another author’s work simply because they were my competition. IMO, that’s just bad form and that is not how I want others to treat me. Please think before you act, or encourage others to act–is this how you want to be treated in return?

Instead, here are positive ways I ask my readers to help:

Ok, I’ll beg. I’ll beg so hard it’s embarrassing, because I do need your help as an author.

1. spread the word about my books and tell people why you love them

2. leave honest reviews where you bought the book (reviews are a HUGE BIGGIE, they don’t have to be long or sound like they’re written by a English professor-just be you.)

3. Word of Mouth: vlog, blog, post, like, share, tweet, plus, link, omg please yes, etc etc

Heck, even simply sending an email that says, “hi, love your work, ok bye” can be a huge pick me up to an author.

Know I appreciate you, readers, I really do.
