1 Star Reviews and What You Should do About them

Stupid, hokey, awful, unbelievable, stinks, worst book ever, gibbering descriptions, ridiculous, dumbed down.

Yes, these are words used in the few 1 Star reviews I've received for "Sundered."

Why would I share them with you? Because we all get 1 and 2 star reviews, no matter our genre, writing ability, years in the business or how dang nice we are as people, we get them. And if you want your  books to be read by a lot of people, get used to the idea that those people will share their opinions with you and you can't make everyone happy.

Now, on to the good stuff.

Young, green and impressionable or sensitive authors take note as arguing with reviewers is a SERIOUS NO-NO so don't do it.There is only one thing you can do as an author when you receive reviews like this . . . .
 
 
 
Write another book; prove them wrong, and your fans right.
