Indieview with reviewer Debra Martin, at Two Ends of the Pen

“I think people love to get lost in a story and forgot their own problems for a while.  Reading can transport you to so many wonderful places and meet great characters.  I would be terribly sad if for some reason, I couldn’t read anymore.”

Cover for Quarter Share by Nathan Lowell

“I’m a binge writer. When I go on a binge, I write 12 or 14 hours a day. Nothing else happens. I snap at my family. I order a lot of pizza. I’ve described the feeling  as “I wait for the first reel of the movie in my mind to start and then I type like mad trying to keep up with it as it plays.” When the closing credits roll, I stop.”

Indieview with BigAl, of BigAl’s Books and Pals Reviews

Posted on May 14, 2011 by | 15 comments

“When I was making the initial plans for the blog this was my biggest struggle. I seriously considered not including ratings at all. Assigning a number to something that can’t be measured seems wrong when you consider how subjective such a rating has to be. I’ve personally made many purchases based on one and two star reviews that described something I would like that the reviewer didn’t.”

IndieView with indie reviewer, Barbara Hightower, of Bab’s World of Books

Posted on March 23, 2011 by | 4 comments

“When I am asked to do a review I always tell them up front I am honest and I never fudge – if I like it great, if not, I am still posting a review.  That being said, I have never and will not write something so derogatory that is makes the author look bad.  It is the book you are evaluating not the author.”
