Want To Help An Author? It Costs Just Two Cents
Okay, you've purchased a book by an author, or you read a book by them several years ago, and you enjoyed it. Maybe you loved it. And you, being the joyous, giving person that you are, have begun to wonder, 'Hey, that author who rocked, I sure wish I could do something nice for them.'
Well, you can. It's simple, takes just a few minutes, and can do WONDERS to help that favorite author reach a wider audience. And what is this magical act that YOU can perform?
Leave a review of their books that you enjoyed. Give your opinion. Your two cents (there is the post title tie-in in case you missed it).
What does this require? Nothing more than you going to Amazon, or Barnes & Noble, or any site where the author's books are sold, and write an honest review. Do you really want to help? Post a review on EVERY website where their book is sold. If you've read and enjoyed more than one, review all that you've read.
Remember, if YOU enjoyed the author's books, it's likely others will as well. Your reviews, coupled with others, will help that author's books rise in rankings and gain notice.
Hey, how convenient. I'm an author! Have you read and enjoyed any of my books? If so, you can go to the AMAZON, BARNES & NOBLE, or SMASHWORDS pages for my books, click on any you've read and enjoyed, and leave a review and rating.
This truly helps, and will make an author love you. Seriously love you. Like 'bear your children' love you. That's the power of the review.
