My book : What does it mean to be black sheep?

Having a problem to fit in, I was searching for solutions.

I wrote a self-help book about different level of rebellion.

Whatever you believe, you can live if you don't accept conformism.

Feeling that you don't fit in?

Everyone turns back to you?

You are blamed for everything?

You are a black sheep and accept your label.

The review:

Ever felt like you don’t fit in? Don’t worry, help is at hand. This great self-help book by Kristina Gallo is all about being not fitting in and feeling like the “black sheep.” Kristina teaches us that you don’t have to change yourself to fit certain situations and people. When we do this, we start to lose a sense of our true self. Fitting in can feel like the easier option, but does it challenge us to do new things and grow as people? I recommend reading this book if you’ve ever felt like the black sheep in your family or place of work.

There’s a great chapter on how to build self-confidence where the author talks about her past struggles with self-esteem and how she stopped comparing herself to famous women such as Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez. Of course, being the black sheep is not a pleasant feeling, especially because the term has rather negative connotations. However, Kristina Gallo teaches us that belonging to a “herd” doesn’t make you happy: Have the courage to find your way.

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...

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 ...

Why is refund 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...
