It is absolutely fantastic Peggy, and I am proud of you.

Thank goodness my sons are out of college, then again, one text book costs about the same as a Kirkus Review. I'm just glad it was positive. Can you imagine spending all that money for them to tell you your book is lousy? Thanks to all for the congrats.

I think you need to sell 1000 books to even try. I'd like to go for Publisher's Weekly review--Kirkus is way over my head. Anyway Peggy, congrats to you and I hope these reviews make a difference in your sales. I was thinking of going for the Pulitzer lol--I like to start at the top and work back down. This was a big help and I've saved the sites you listed.

I'm sure you're right about the necessity of a professional editor, as well as a credible review, as requirements for a self-published book. I'll bookmark this blog post and refer to it again when my book is at that stage.<br />I'm looking forward to reading A STOP IN THE PARK.

I used Beaver's Pond Press, which is self publishing and traditional publishing. I have been very happy with the company.<br />My non-fiction book is "Outshine: An Ovarian Cancer Memoir." It came out in early March 2012 and is available on many book sites. I feel things are going well, but it is a lot of work. I have one biographical novel that is ready to be published, but I am going to wait a few months.<br />I will look for your book on Amazon. Good luck and again, thanks for sharing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
