Free ebook in exchange for review.

Hello everyone,

My name is Amelia and I’m a new author. I’ve released my new novella ‘Tabous Trois’ on Smashwords and I would love to get some feedback. It’s a collection of three short incest/taboo stories.

If there’s anyone here who would be interested in reviewing it, I’d love to arrange for you to download a free copy. Once you’ve read it, if you didn't hate it and would like to post a review, I would be eternally grateful.

You can preview it here: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/331404
Please email me or PM me if you're interested.

Warmest regards,
Amelia

Hullo dahlink, welcome to the board.

You must take your email link out of your signature - it is not allowed, although I think there is a place somewhere you can provide it, and people's feedback to you will go to your email address.

You may want to put this thread in the Story Feedback board. Bear in mind though, that when we writers do read each other's things, we usually read stuff we publish on here, not on other sites. We ask each other secretly by PM if we want to get someone to read something we have on another site.

When you publish stories on Literotica you are entitled to put a note about a book you published elsewhere up on the thread in the Stickies above. I'm not even quite sure you are supposed to post about Smash stories on the Story Feedback board but you could give it a go.

Thank you Naoko my love.

I've taken your advice and posted one of my stories. One of the first ones I ever wrote. Hopefully it will find a kind audience here.

I'll also be looking at the Story Feedback Board as you suggested.

Just to nitpick, but the implication I'm getting is that you're looking for only favorable reviews. In my experience, if you ask for a review, you're putting your skill and pride on the line and have to accept the fact that the review may not be a favorable one.

You can save the coupon with me. I looked at it, it looked good so I bought it. I don't mind an occasional $3 to support a fellow indy author.

I'm interested that the three stories total to 31k

Most incest stories on SW are pure stroke and average 4k or so. I'm hoping to find some story with the kink in yours.

Yeah, good point. I see that a lot.

I used to think asking for reviews was tacky, bu am thinking of going this route myself.

Reviews are far and few between on both SW and Amazon. I'm lucky to get one a month and that's on a decent amount of sales.

Do this and get rich: Compile a writers self-exam of explicit components good-better-best stories must have. Make it clear and concrete, so that the rest of us can contrast and compare our stuff with your examples. The quality of your writing is beefy enough to do it. And you really don't need reviews now that you've passed the HOW'M I DOIN MA? stage,

I write tons of reviews and attract lightning from Amazon writers and readers. Writers want their heads patted and their asses smooched.

Oh my. I just reread it and I can see your point. That wasn't my intent. By which I mean yes, of course. But no. LOL!

Personally I know that I would REALLY have to dislike something to actually post a negative review. If it just wasn't to my taste then I wouldn't want to influence opinions one way or the other. I don't think anyone would dislike it that much so I'm okay with rollong the dice.

Of course I'm always grateful for favorable reviews!
