My Inappropriate Book!

Loved this book. It was like candy for the mind. To read it you need to suspend disbelief and any detective tendencies. Just buckle up and hang on. The ride is all that matters.
I found the above review this morning on Amazon. It's rare I anyone buys one of my books and reviews are rarer. I'm used to gut kicking one star rants. Finally I have a book readers enjoy.

This is the last book I published. I stopped writing after this one. After a decade of rejections from New York literary agents and editors, I took this one straight to Indie publishing. I struggled with my long time critique partners, as always, and after I left the group because I had a day job and they refused to meet when I was available, they would not let me back into the group last year. Because I never took their advice apparently. That's not true. I took about 5% of their advice, but they didn't notice. They never liked my heroines, thought my casts were too large and I refused to follow the logical formula with my plots. I finished the book without them and had it edited by an editor pal. I sucked it up and made about 20% of the changes she wanted. Mostly grammatical. I did pare the cast down slightly but I refused to get rid of all the characters and sub plots and twists that would have streamlined the story and made it acceptable.

I now have four 5 star reviews on Amazon, and one 3 star for this book. And only one of them is from a friend. Strangers like my book! My kooky, convoluted weird muse has been accepted on some plain by readers. Halejujah!

I'm going to write a sequel. It was on hold because what was the point in writing another book nobody wanted to read. I'm so touched. And excited! Thank you readers.
