Hot chocolate is the best! I love the smell of coffee, but can't stand the taste. Tea and hot chocolate for me please!

Looks like we have something in common. I don't like coffee either Alexis and Erica. But like Erica I do love the smell of coffee. Tea or hot chocolate would be great for me.
OMFG coconut flavoured hot chocolate- I haven't seen that in years. I love hot chocolate. I drink tea very occasionally. I mostly drink coffee from my environmentally unfriendly coffee pod machine.

Please share.

Coconut flavored hot chocolate?! I have never heard of this. Off to begin my quest in search of this heavenly nectar.

When you do decide to pitch your book to a blog- look it over and make sure your books will match their style. Check their posts and see what kind of books they like to review. Don't send a romance to someone who likes science fiction.
Also, pitch the book without sending it. You have to ask them if they'd like to look at it. Don't presume and just send it.
Getting them to write about you takes usually requires sending a copy of the book.

1.0 out of 5 starsI am satisfying with its quality.
ByHoney Galbraithon September 16, 2017
Format: Paperback
I do not watch a lot of satisfaction, but a few days ago a friend recommended I think Amazon's products, I feel very buy used rods in other sites. Very functional. Love how easy it is. These are wonderful---magical EXACTLY WHAT I WAS HOPING!!! Rare for these items. Well designed. Great product. Just wanted I was hoping for and more.
Can you guys report it as abuse- It drags down his average and I have no idea what she is talking about.

Carole, where is this review posted...I can't find the book.
Alex wrote: "Here's the review, Ted, https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-re...

Thanks, Alex. I was searching under the wrong author's name LOL In any event, I said the person was high on drugs and what he wrote was junk. Should I have been kinder?

Which reminds me about that old joke as to why seniors don't interview well:
Interviewer: "So, tell me a little about yourself."
Senior: "Well, I do tend to say what's on my mind."
Interviewer: "Well, I think there's a lot to be said about be honest with people."
Senior: "Who gives a S$%^ what you think!"
Alex wrote: "Lol. I'm not a senior but I do spend a lot of time saying nothing because I'm sure what I'll say will be unpopular, or at least not received well by those likely to comment or respond."Let me tell you, the older you get, the less you care!

Carole, I don't see that review - maybe Amazon removed it.
Can't get to it in my phone. Will do it later. As we say "what's that got to do with the price of cheese?"I'm with Alex. I have got myself into real trouble with my opinion over the years. To the point where my job has been under threat.

Carole wrote: "Thank you , guys!! They removed it!!!! I'm delighted. She wasn't even a verified review!!"Booyah!
Excellent. See. Nothing to do with the price of cheese!

Congratulations to everyone on their success. I have one to share but not really sure it's legit. A woman claiming to be the president of a book club said she would have her members order both of my books(50 members). She was seeking information about myself and my publisher. I have had a small book club read my book but this sounds too good to be true and my publisher felt the same. We are waiting to see if she is who she says she is and will order the books. If this is legit then great for me but even if it's a lie then nothing lost.
Mod
Hoping you find it is legit. Congrats! Keep us posted. :)
I look forward to hearing you have lots of sales!

Carole, I got a reply to a post on my blog that was similar to that review. What the person said made absolutely no sense. Fortunately, Word press allows you to mark comments as spam and delete them. Don't we wish Amazon would allow that? LOL!
Mod
That is crazy when the ones we are discussing are so clearly not even about the book. *sigh*

Thank you, Carole!
I started reading 'Navigating Indie World' and marvel how this type of book is fascinating reading. I would be much further in my reading, but I've been immersed in a couple of new projects. However, letting you know it will be my pleasure to write a review when I finish it.
