I came to this forum because I heard it was the best place to get your book reviewed. Good reviews would be best, but you can learn from even bad reviews. I'm not afraid of bad reviews, if they are meant well and want to tell you how to do it better next time.

My first book was a rating disaster. I didn't write Th3 Reborn to be a best seller. I wrote it to figure out how to write best sellers and what I wanted them to say. I got the idea when I read my favorite author's first story that he could not even get published in a magazine.

Robert A. Heinlein's first story contained so many ideas he would later create into terrific books. I wanted to do the same. That's why I created Th3 Reborn.

It was a story written in first person narrative, containing a shit load of scientific conjecture to create a universe the character (Th3) could discover over the course of billions of years and how he survived that long to make those discoveries. The storyline was a synopsis of a brief outline of the books I wanted to write based on each chapter of Th3 Reborn.

As a reviewer you can obviously tell that kind of book is not going to be a best seller. But I went to this place where writers go to tell their stories and get feedback from other writers.

I got their feedback on Th3 Reborn. A few liked it but most did not. But I didn't go there only for Reborn. I went there to get the beginnings of my first book based on those chapters in Th3 Reborn.

I got their criticisms and looked at their writing styles. I figured out I was missing a lot of descriptive adjectives and scene description. I took my thoughts home and worked on my writing style and read a lot of popular books to see how others authored their stories.

My first book based on Reborn turned into 200,000 words with another possible 100,000 words to go. The first 100,000 words pretty much stood alone and formed the basis for all of the other books meant to follow.

So, here I am trying to get reviews on my very first REAL book meant to be read by others and I was about to tell you the story about how Debbie Roth https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/8... became my first reader and reviewer, on Kindle for the YA version, and you should definitely look her up and get to be her friend because she is a good one... seriously.

I was going to beg someone else to be the first reader and reviewer on Kindle of the Mature version and discovered that Tanya https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1... had done it already! Thank you so very much too, you are another good friend and you have made me cry... Thank you!

Another special thanks to Fergus, Quondam Happy Face https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/7... the first friend on Goodreads to review it here. You should become one of his 17.7k followers.

James Michael https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1... gave it five stars though he didn't say why I thank him too.

Thanks to all who read this explanation, and I hope you will read my book too. I can't explain how important those reviews are to authors and I'm looking forward to getting back to the second book in this series meant for you to read... If there is something I can do better in the next one let me know! Thank you either way.
