Spate
First received a spate of low-rated written reviews the past couple of weeks on Amazon. How many in a spate? Three, in this case. Yeah, I know it’s not that many, but remember that most people don’t leave written reviews. There are times where a few weeks go by and nobody writes anything. It’s been interesting to see how why those three people don’t like the book, while others have compared it to some of the top writers in SF. I guess there’s a happy medium in there somewhere. I do realize that anything I write isn’t going to make everyone happy and there will be people who don’t like it. I guess this month, at least so far, I wondered what was happening with the dislike. I don’t know, maybe just luck of the draw. Don’t get me wrong, First and Next Time both have received dislike along the way, just not in a rapid-fire fashion. Nothing I can do about it and I try to only worry about things I can control. The good news is that the book maintains a 4.4 rating with 613 ratings as of today. I can live with that.
