WHEN THIS BOOK WILL BE OUT ? I AM REALLY NERVOUS THAT WE'LL WAIT A FEW MORE YEARS LIKE THE PREVIOUS BOOKS . LYNCH AND ROFUSS ARE NEXT ON MY S*** LIST : FELLAS THERE IS A FINE LINE BETWEEN ADMIRATION AND DISAPPOINTMENT IT TRULY IS .
Raven Waiting is frustrating, but authors aren't machines. They need food, water, sunlight, human compassion and friends. Life gets in the way sometimes. Do…moreWaiting is frustrating, but authors aren't machines. They need food, water, sunlight, human compassion and friends. Life gets in the way sometimes. Don't forget you speak to a person when you speak to an author. Someone who is already under a lot of pressure. Someone who may have had a loss, or be dealing with things emotionally, financially or physically. There's also the fact that books are a work of art, they can't be rushed or they won't be half what you wanted and you'd be even more upset. My advice is to fill your library with many authors so the lack of one work is filled by another.

Don't forget when you speak to each other you also speak to people too. I think we forget these things too easily when we go online and it's starting to bleed into offline contacts as well. We value each other and our feelings less and less and we talk or act before thinking through whether an action or word is necessary. Whether or not we have tried to understand each other or found where frustration comes from and marked each other as rude or mean. Sometimes we just...don't think first, we just go with a feeling and because we feel it, it must of course be true and right. (less)
