Reviews!!!

Why are reviews so hard to get?

That’s what I would like to know!  It seems as though Amazon won’t let someone leave a review unless they have spent a certain amount of money on the site.  Also, family members and of course the author can’t leave reviews either.  I wonder why some authors have reviews that straight out mention that they are related and right there in the actual review! I don’t understand!!!!!!! Why are certain reviews being removed while others aren’t? I am trying to make it as an author in an honest way.  I’m not trying to manipulate the system or take advantage by using illegal tactics which are clearly stated and defined in Amazon’s TOS. I guess in the end, God will have my back. Karma’s a “B” I appreciate Amazon for allowing me to publish my work and I know that they are trying to regulate fraudulent reviews but some that I have seen on some #1 books in certain genres are ridiculous. Also, I have noticed a lot of review retaliation which in the end will only give more exposure to the book.  A 1 star review can possibly boost your sales 10 times over or more, so never let those stragglers get you down. Have a wonderful day! I’m off to revise book 1!!!

The American Opioid Epidemic and Mental Illness

Someone Like Me-Is there a connection between addiction and mental illness? I say there is! Some people say that addiction is a choice, but I know for a fact that it’s not. Mental illness plays a big part in a persons decision making process and lifestyle choices. I am now in the middle of writing my 7th book and I will explain in detail how my chemically imbalanced mind thinks and reacts.  Well, at least how mine did before treatment anyway! Sure, I am no pro and I am not a doctor, but I have a genuine real life experience and a story to tell. I hope that you will open your mind to the possibility, or shall I say the reality, that addiction is indeed a disease and not a choice.

My Name is Susie and I’m a Comma Addict

Editing a manuscript is like editing your life! Search for the mistakes and fix them! Book One of The Sweet Melissa Memoir Series has been revised!  No worries! I’m sure it has plenty of commas stuck in the wrong place! It also has dialogue and a more descriptive value including what? EMOTION,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,#Recovery #Adiction #OneDayAtATime If you need to hire an editor/life coach then do it!  If you’re stubborn like me and you want to do it alone, then be prepared for the criticism. Go through the pages of your manuscript/life one word at a time.  Find an easy flow. Don’t make it complicated with terms you don’t understand and ask for help when you can.  There’s one thing I’ve found to be true, and that’s putting comma’s in the right place.  I habitually overuse them .  I guess they are my “NEW DRUG of CHOICE” and sometimes I follow my own rules of punctuation. If I need a pause or a break, I shove one in!  I am a comma addict, but I’m

Behind Blue Eyes

Book Seven will be out soon! I have an editor now and everything is going as planned, just a bit behind schedule. I am going to expose a certain something that I didn’t intentionally leave out of my other books. I think that you will find it interesting and as always, I hope to inspire and help at least one person.
