Love the Meet Cute! Just goes to show you never know when or where opportunities will find you. Very helpful about reviews, thank you, Phoebe and Sally!

My agent said to me not to read the reviews but it’s near impossible for an author not to. The ones that bring down ratings are from those who receive damaged copies and such but the ones that hurt my heart are from folks who seem not to have read it. I’ve not pushed much for folks to leave ratings or reviews and the books continue to do well but perhaps I will. Thanks to you both for this interview today.

Yea it’s soooo hard not to read. It’s like comments on a blog. That said, it also feels like a helpful and meaningful way to engage readers who want to support you! I honestly didn’t think about how much they could matter.
