The notes on the monitor in the previous post...those are coding reminders for the Woman. She can never remember how to make InDesign auto-flow text from the first page to the last, and she sometimes forgets how to make it show page numbers. So she keeps sticky notes on the monitor where she can see them, and then every time she needs to know that information...well, she forgets those notes are there and starts saying things from the bad word list, and she digs through books to find out what to do, and then starts to make new notes. When she sees she already had notes? Yeah, more bad words.Other thing we're contemplating today...book reviews. I used to get a lot of reviews on my books, but lately...none. There's only one review on Amazon for Ozoo. I know people are reading it, because they email me about it. But no one is leaving good reviews.
This isn't just about me or the Woman. Indie writers especially live and die by the reviews they get, and we know a lot of indie writers (you might be one of them.) The fewer reviews, the worse the sales become. It doesn't take long to write a review, but the impact it has is pretty big. So if you buy a book and like it--anyone's--please take 2 minutes to review it on Amazon, especially if it's by an indie writer.
Why Amazon? Because it's where most book sales occur, especially digital books.
In other news today, I have successfully opened 27 more links on Reddit by rubbing my face on the computer, and I have a special knack of finding the X-rated things. The Woman is so proud. And newly educated. But she keeps asking me why the hell I can't just open cat pictures...it's not my fault the things she looks at have links to nekkid people. I'm just really good at finding them.

You're right...if we've enjoyed your books, we owe you a review. Consider it done
TBT is a simpler soul. He has a sticky note for the difference beween "its" and "it's" (which we never pay anny attention to). And we dont rub the keyboard but we do walk on it. OUR talent is changing the display settings. Sometimes it takes TBT a while ta figure out what we did. We turned the whole screen red one time!
Thinks do not come quickly to when the beans have a lot to do. It's just the way the woman is and I would probably need more. I forget to look at the notes even! LOL
