Happy Writemas!
I have many plans for 2018. My hope is that I accomplish them to share. What I thought I would do is write a post about a new feature that I am going to include - Indie Author Review. As an Indie author myself, I know the importance of being seen, reviewed, and heard. Take, for instance, Amazon. Amazon requires 50 reviews on a book to be included in many promotions and newsletters. Most Indie authors do not have this. And, unfortunately, there are issues with Amazon taking reviews off of books that they feel are bought or from someone close to the authors. I hope that this helps some authors in the future.
This feature will be separate from the Author Spotlight. There are plenty of spaces available for 2018 if you would like to view the Author Spotlight page.
I have been checking out some books on Createspace, the publisher I like the most. And I have to say that I have found some great books to review. The first set of books I am going to review come from the romance, the poetry, and the fiction genres. I have set up a schedule for Indie Book Reviews.
What this will entail is:
1. Purchasing an Indie Author book on Amazon.
2. Reviewing the book on Amazon.
3. Providing a review on my blog.
4. Providing some details and links on my blog.
In the coming weeks, I will release some information on the books for review. If you are an Indie author and would like to be considered for Indie Author Review, please email me at smchatton.writer@gmail.com or visit my author page on Facebook.
