Are you in the state of emotional fixation?




Do you know the feeling when you wish to be with someone, but it is not possible? The reasons might be various. He is at a big distance. He is not single. He doesn't love you back. The conclusion is the same. He can't be your partner.



Despite all the obstacles, you still want him. I obsess you with the thought to be with him, even for a short. If you can get only a moment, it would make you happy.



Emotional fixation is a state when you focus on a certain person, but you know that is only an illusion that will not turn into reality. Making a dream with open eyes is your escape from the daily routine. 



Why you are doing this?



You feel alone even you are in a relationship.
Your life did not justify your expectations.
You have a strong imagination.
You can be alone with yourself.


The object of emotional fixation is a person you like. In your imagination, he is a hero with a magic stick who will make all things perfect. 



Emotional fixation can be dangerous for your mental state.



He said no; you are not listening to him.
He is ignoring you,; you are seeking a conversation.
He never meets with you.




When you waste time with your obsession, you forgot about people who care about you. Your precious moments are in your imagination, and you are not on the ground. Sometimes is good that the object of your obsession cut the connection harsh because it will help you leave him alone.



Also, you can be the object of someone's emotional fixation. It happens when someone sends you friend requests many times, stalks you, or calls you on the phone. In both cases this is not loving, this is despair or escape from loneliness and you should not accept it for your own sake.

The book based on true events

  A paperback version is on Amazon.  Genre: Contemporary romance, young adult short novel Place of action: Croatia Alert : based on true story The blurb:   Valentina lives in a small town. The priorities for women are to get marry in twenties.  Fighting with prejudices, Valentina has an open relationship with a local hooligan. The love story will develop in a wrong direction. Valentina will learn important life lessons. The review: Clear, sharp, legible, written in Kristina's recognizable style. An interesting, powerful, instructive story - when an intelligent woman falls in love with a bad man. This is a real-life story that happens to many women. The story shows that intelligent women and common sense are not immune to falling in love with bad men and the thought that they can change them. A love story that is not really a romantic story. Love is one-sided. Love is stronger than reason, but until a moment when everything has changed. Purchase link:  Seduced by...

Swapping books - a devil's deal

  "I will read your book if you read and review mine." This is an example of author's deal when it comes time for reviews. Reviews is hard to get. If you sell books, it is still not guarantee you will get reviews. If I could get a review for every book I sold, it would be great. People will buy book to collect it on the shelves and leave it un-read. Or, they will read but not rate it. Many reasons are for not getting reviews, but some people don't know where and how to write reviews or are not eligible. That is the reason why authors will turn to other authors, with a proposition for review. The danger of such review is on Amazon rules: author can't review other's author books on request. I love to read indie authors and they inspire me, but I have my circle and I never accept offers to read someone I never heard about. Once I got a proposition :" Hey, I saw your review for XX author, can you write it for me, too?" I ignored it. When you have a deal ...

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...
