Why everyone want to be the influencer?

Many girls are publishing their photos on Instagram every day in the hope to get money. Recently Italian Influencer called the police because it deleted her Instagram profile. She said that is like murder because they killed her business. She said that she spent her money quick on Gucci products.

When I finished the college, I was working voluntarily for one year on the court. I got only travel expenses, but I worked as others, paid employers. Later on, I waited a year at home to get a real job; I sent 25 requests for the job; I was on 10 job interviews and it took a lot of nerves and patience.

Nowadays many young people are lazy, and they want to get money easily. It spoils those who succeed, and much news is about addictions, suicides, or heart attacks that affect people in their twenties. They don't know to appreciate money.

Those who can't succeed are disappointed and complain about a stroke of bad luck. It is not pleasant to take your photos several times, expose this on Instagram, and get haters later. I got a few times a dick photo in my inbox. I pity those perverts.

They can't find a girl in their country so they think Instagram is a dating site or a view from Red lamp street in Amsterdam. I wonder how many reports they get from girls. Really, what someone expects by showing his underwear in the inbox? That I will praise their size? Or heal frustrations because of abstinence? Or to remind someone about their manhood?

Many women use filters so nobody recognizes them in real life if someone sees them. I wonder I am the only one who has eye bags? Why so many faces are with no pimples and so white and pale, like vampires and aliens? No wonder guys are searching for what is natural, and what is only the masterpiece of Photoshop.

Also, taking half-naked photos will make the wrong impression. You never know which kind of pervert you might attract. Instead of fame and money, you need to deal with sick brains; it is difficult, isn't it? For whom you showed a bra and a half-naked butt?

Every young person should see the value of money, they need to work on a real job. Once they experience how to be rich, they will fall into depression because it can't last forever.

Also, if you wish to be the influencer, you need to have strong nerves and a good stomach. You need to deal with haters calmly and save your peace. Don't neglect real people around you.

If you get drown in this virtual world of Photoshop, you might forget those who are near you or lose their affection.

Should we respond to negative reviews?

Recently I had a discussion in my social media about negative ratings. There was a situation in Goodreads, where I got two negative reviews on my two books. The point was in the way how the ratings were set up. First rating for my book "Body in the waves" was placed under 5-star review from another reviewer. While the reviewer praising my book, the troll came under to say "This is really bad book." Second rating was described as " Poor author needs writing lessons." Both reviews broke standards of reviewing, because there is no visible evidence that book was downloaded in Kindle unlimited or purchased. It was a clear troll act from a new page, without a profile photo and with a nickname. I reported this to Goodreads and they responded me they are processing this. Meanwhile, I heard from other authors that Goodreads failed to do anything about trolling. In these terms, Goodreads should delete such profiles and forbid the access because of breaking rules. T...

Why the refund is damaging indie authors?

I understand someone can be disappointed with a book. It is like I was disapointed with my trousers online and returned it. What makes a difference, my trousers were 40 euros. The book was 2.49 cents. This makes return funny, because what can you do with this money? Some readers don't understand story behind the refund. The author will get minus royalties. - 0.13 c in my Kindle report, that will vanish when someone else buy the book. The situation happens. Someone accidentaly clicked and bought a book. A random customer wants a refund. Maybe it was not a random move. Maybe the customer clicked, bought and did not like the book. When you don't like the book choose another options, instead of damaging authors. Write a negative review. Write negative one star rating. Don't purchase another books from this author. Or, maybe to reconsider and read it, again? If you write negative reviews or rate it with 1 or 2 stars, you are making a favor to authors. You are moving algorithms i...

Five myths about promo sites

Recently I asked for a featured Bookbub deal for one of my books. I got response that my book should be free priced and my expense would be 230 dollars. This is really funny, because I could expect people grab my book for free and give me one star (as it happens when books are available for everyone). To pay such amount of money would be waste and without a purpose. I am mix of traditional and indie author. Having a publisher, but not bestseller books, I am looking for ways to increase my book sales. Promo sites like Bookbub are very expensive and they offer their deals for 25% books from authors who applied for this. I had an insight to author's books who grabbed Bookbub deals. It works will authors who are already selling a good amount of their books. In general, promo sites are not working for favor of indie authors. These are five myths about promo sites: Promo sites give many readers. It is not true, because you will get visibility and many trolls, but not readers. Promo sites...
