BOOK REVIEWS – DO NOT CHASE REQUESTS!

Hi everyone,

I am going to pop this into my review guidelines but PLEASE do not keep chasing me once you have submitted your review request as it really winds me up! I know that a lot of authors seem to routinely do this, but there is no need! If your book has been accepted onto the list, it will either be:

Reviewed or not reviewed!

I know this sounds blunt. However, reviews are done free of charge in our own time. I am extremely busy with life and other commitments and it totally depresses me to login to my emails and be confronted by several people chasing up reviews. 9/10 I don’t respond. Sometimes I delete the original request. Sometimes you might even get a snarky reply. I don’t want to be sending snarky replies or deleting review requests!

Please, if you are going to send a review request – great. Send it. I will acknowledge this. Then all you have to do is follow my blog and keep an eye out for the review. If it appears eventually, fabulous. If it doesn’t, well, no harm done!
