I've not counted up how many books I've read since 1973 but I do know that since I started writng I've had less time to do as much reading as I'd like. This year I've vowed to read more and so far I'm keeping to it. I'm honoured to be on your list of authors you trust - thank you. I always try to make sure I don't disappoint. Sometimes the trouble with blurbs is that they can make the books sound so similar, when as experienced readers like you know, the individual styles and writing each author puts in makes them very different.

Since blogging, though, I now buy based on the author's name in that romance line. I try not to read the blurbs or excerpts because I might think I've already read those books before. Now there is no need to read them, as I trust those authors on my list - including Melanie, Kate, and numerous others (as I've read 250+ books/year since 1973).Laney4https://www.blogger.com/profile/06990122242183752771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726997166333278629.post-1322823629551825632013-06-06T03:04:52.499+12:002013-06-06T03:04:52.499+12:00Kate, it's nice you've found an imprint th...Kate, it's nice you've found an imprint that fits with your style of writing.<br /><br />We do torture our characters, don't we?Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726997166333278629.post-55762964018128073492013-06-06T01:04:03.537+12:002013-06-06T01:04:03.537+12:00Your book sounds wonderful!

You need to know that the reviewer is on your wavelength and even then it can be hit and miss.
