Group 92 Clean Mod K.A.

[Emma]

Hi Douglas, apparently you just submitted the order of the pheonix by J K Rowling....

Its a glitch that happens every now and again, but its always J. K.s book that gets substituted.

[Douglas]

I have just fallen off my chair with laughter! How the hell did that happen?
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

[Douglas]

I don't even like the damn book:)

[K.A.]

It is funny that when this does happen (and I've seen it a few times before) it always seems to be a Potter book. I wonder what the black-box algorithm is behind that?

[Noorilhuda]

I have reviewed Douglas Wallis' book 'Just Recompense' under Indie Review Initiative group.

[Gloria]

If there's still space to join, here's my Author profile https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

This is the book I'd like to be reviewed: Birth Formations: What Multiple Home Births Teach about Living, Laboring and Mothering in the Now

The only person who has reviewed my work before is Gloria Piper.

Thanks.

[Emma]

We now have ten people signed up BUT there are a huge amount of review clashes to work through to work out if I can fit everyone in the group.
As usual I will attempt to fit people in, in the order they signed up, but I can only guarantee places to those that have no clashes (Stephanie and Alex - I love you two!)
I currently have a lot of scribbled notes that I'll be trying to work through after I've had some more coffee.

These are the clashes I'll be attempting to avoid, seeing that everyone has to review 4 people, and four people have to review each participant. If I've missed something SAY NOW!!!!!!!

G J cannot review Noorilhuda
Noorilhuda cannot review Ibiloye
Loralee cannot review Tamara
Ibiloye cannot review Loralee
Gloria P cannot review G J, Noorilhuda, Loralee or ibiloye
Tamara cannot review Loralee
Douglas cannot review Noorilhuda
Glora Ng cannot review Gloria P.

Headache pills anyone?

[Emma]

Right, I've done some juggling, and it just doesn't work.
In order to include the maximum number of people that have signed up as possible in this group, I'm afraid we are going to have to lose Noorilhuda.

Therefore, we still need 1 member.

This person must not have been previously reviewed by:
GJ, Loralee, Ibiloye or Gloria P, as they will be reviewing these four authors.

The new member will be reviewed by: Stephanie, Tamara, Alex and Gloria Ng. So they cannot have already reviewed these people.

If this is you, please wave your hand in the air ASAP and we'll get this clean party started.

[Douglas]

I cant see anything I have reviewed above Emma.

[Emma]

You're already in Douglas. I'll update the list at the start of the thread in a minute.

Unless Douglas is another alias/pen name then this link is in error - it goes to Harry Potter!? :-(

Slow off the mark there Graham.....

Yeah I wish I knew how she does that, I would use the same trick for my book! See comments above with correction. Thanks.

[Ronesa]

I'm ready for another round. :)
I've reviewed G.J. Griffiths before, but a different book.

My book is Light Love Rituals, non-fiction.
Light Love Rituals: Bulgarian Myths, Legends, and Folklore

[Emma]

Welcome Ronesa, That's our ten everybody. I'll update the list and post who's reviewing who ASAP.

[Emma]

START DATE: 4th Feb
END DATE:28-Apr-16

Round 1 – post your review by 25-Feb-16
Round 2 – post your review by 17-Mar-16
Round 3 – post your review by 07-Apr-16
Round 1 – post your review by 28-Apr-16


Please remember the commitment you are making to your fellow group members.. If you pull out after the start date for any reason it is the other members who will be faced with the problem of finding a replacement, or missing out on reviews, through no fault of their own. Please don’t ask the moderators to chase after replacements as we just don’t have the time.

It is the responsibility of the author to get their book to their reviewer in a format the reviewer can manage. Everyone must be able to both provide and receive at least PDF. Many of our authors also use mobi and epub. There are no set dates for the start of each round. You can each work at your own pace, within the limits of the round deadlines. All reviews must be posted by xx.

When you have posted your review on GR please post a link to your three reviews in this thread.

All reviews must be posted to GR, Amazon .com and Amazon.co.uk.

Postings to any other sites are by agreement by both author and reviewer.

If I’ve missed something that results in you being asked to review someone who has already reviewed you, please let me know asap.

My advice is to use PM to give email addresses to each other (save the chance of spammers getting your addies from this open forum). I'll stay with you to answer your questions then Kathy will take over as your group moderator. Happy reviewing, everyone :)

Hi Gloria,
I am due to review your book in G92, how and where would you like it sent?

[K.A.]

Hello, folks, jumping in as mod. I'll be keeping track of who has reviewed whom and finish dates from here on out. Please PM me or post here if you've got any issues.

Remember that it's the author's responsibility to get their book to the reviewers. The best way is to PM the reviewers and ask where to send it and in what format. I suggest you DO NOT post your email address in a forum open to public perusal.

Ready - set - go!

Kathy

[Douglas]

Excuse my dimness.....how do I send a PM?

[Ronesa]

Douglas wrote: "Excuse my dimness.....how do I send a PM?"

Click on the link for the person's name. On their profile page, click on the arrow to the right of the "Follow Author" link (it's right under the profile picture). You can click "Send message" from there.

[K.A.]

Thanks, Ronesa!

[Douglas]

Thank you all:)

[Loralee, Admin]

Hello!
Ibiloye, as soon as possible, will you send me your book via the email I sent you in the PM?
Alex, would you PM me an email to which I could send my book? I have mobi, epub, and PDF. Let me know which of those three you prefer.

[Douglas]

Here is my review for Tamara's book (may she forgive me)
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
As usual I await Amazon's confirmation for the link.

[K.A.]

LOL! Thanks, Douglas!

What? You mean I didn't break some obscure rule on etiquette? Thats a relief!

Douglas, you will also need to leave a review on Amazon UK.

[K.A.]

Thanks Ronesa!

Have done Loralee, but they seem very slow confirming they have accepted it.

Ah! Here it is.

Thanks Ronesa. I like it lots!

[K.A.]

Thanks, Douglas. I've had the same issue with Amazon.co.uk - it's fine to just post the Goodreads one until the others come through.

[Loralee, Admin]

Ah! My mistake. My apologies, Douglas!

I still haven't gotten a PDF of Iblioye's book which is supposed to be my round 1. So I'll just go ahead and post my reviews of Gloria Piper's Water Pearl, which is my round 2 review.
