It's hard not to love them. After all, they hold the fate of your indie book in their hands. When you're an indie published author, you scrape for every bit of publicity you can get. Every mention on the internet can result in one or two sales, every 10 or 20 sales can result in one more review on Amazon. One more review on Amazon can result in 10 or 20 more sales, repeat infinitely...
So, it's daunting, when you're out there looking for people to review your book, and you Google for indie book reviewers, and the top hits show a list of indie reviewers, but by the time you click over to their sites or their blogs, they've already hung out the "Do Not Disturb" sign. They're so inundated with requests from authors to review their work that they've stopped accepting new submissions.
But the quest goes on. I try to find at least one place a day to submit my incredibly awesome, utterly spellbinding novel. Conceited you say?
Well, someone has to say it.

Better late than never? I wrote earlier about my book, Vampires in Paradise, being available for the next three days as a FREE KINDLE DOWNLOAD. Then there were legions of mixups with Amazon getting that done. It is finally listed at $0.00 on the Amazon page for Kindle download. Sorry for all the mixups on this. Here's the link:

Live & Learn...
If you're one of those folks who still want to hold the book in your hand, turn the page and all that, and are planning to get a paperback version of Vampires In Paradise, I would appreciate it if you would purchase it through my estore at CreateSpace; HERE.
I make about double the royalty through my estore. Something that would have been nice to know before I steered everyone to the Amazon site.
CreateSpace is an Amazon company, but the Amazon store carries it's own additional overhead cost to me and so I earn less if you buy it through them.
It doesn't affect Kindle sales. The only place you can get a Kindle version is HERE.
The more I pay attention to all of this, the more it all comes clear to me how it all works.
Thanks, and Happy Reading!
