Strange world we live in. If you counted the hours I have
spent writing and re-writing Zachania, I could have probably built a house in
that time. Then just as things were beginning to go well a guy comes along and
absolutely 'slaughters' me with a bad review because of my 'grammar' mistakes.
Ok if I look at it truthfully I can blame no one but myself. Yes I uploaded the
book with the mistakes and yes I left my ass hanging out! My sales have now
fell to 180.000 from 22.000 and to say I am 'fuming' is an understatement on
the scale of King Kong! At first the usual negative thoughts of 'poor me' and
'why does it always happen to me' sunk in. But then I thought, let's look at
this on a positive level.
The bad review has kicked me into life where I 'did' get
round to fixing all the grammar mistakes. And guess what now I feel confident
that whoever reads my book can never hit me with the same home run again. It’s
a strange feeling where I want to 'send the boys' over to see the 'smart ass'
but then again I want thank him for giving me the determination to further
myself as an author.
They say Love and hate are two horns on the same head, I
think I am beginning to realise it!
