A ranting queen on the loose
Since I got my Kindle I have downloaded roughly 100 books--I'm a slow reader--which resulted in a deleting marathon.
Those who have been following my blog, know that I hold a Ph.D. in ranting. Be it about self-published authors and their behaviour in social media, or the mediocre to non-existent quality of self-published books. Not all of them, but certainly the ones I've deleted.
To help lift the overall quality, I decided to do what I do best: write a lengthy rant about my observations and experiences, followed by suggestions on how to make it better, and a few additional tips and tricks. Beware: it's not for the faint-hearted.
Whether you are a suffering reader or a self-published author, I hope you'll get a giggle and some useful advice, or maybe even both from this book.
This book is a 25k-word 'educational rant'; divided in two: 1. the rant 2. the editing advice. Available at the Amazon store.
You can sample the section 'dialogue' below.
