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.
