I do a lot of paid reviews for a company that I “think” has ties to Kindle. You have to actually buy the books you review, but you get paid for reviewing them. So far I’ve had free rein to give honest reviews. Good for the ones that deserve it, and bad for those that are bad.
I’ve recommended this site to several authors after reading about the protagonist slamming a clip into his silenced revolver. (OK, that may be a bit over the top, but not a lot.)
I’m hoping a thread by this title will direct such authors, and the folks who can help them, to a helpful and cooperative space. I’m hoping those authors who come here are truly interested in “getting it right.” My experience, so far, with this forum is people more than willing to help somebody really seeking help.
