Good Job Spuds!!!   I've written stories...Mostly for High School or College, and I've started 2, ..Wait make that 3 books...But to seriously see it through to the end ... Seriously,  and I cannot stress this enough,  I am impressed!   The thing here is...I, sometimes anyhow, prefer the independent, DIY touch...I knew (vaguely) this actual published author, writing romance novels for women,...and it just seemed so formulaic.  She was waiting for one book to be published (her 3rd book), and if it was a hit she would keep her pen name, otherwise she had another book in the wings to be published almost instantly under another pen name (Her 3rd pen name,...All at the direction of the publisher)...It was much more, ... , planned, and canned (Hey I rhymed!) than you would ever think...Like, she might as well have been in a Boy Band (Ha!) as far as things being manufactured and contrived were concerned...Ebooks, whatever the godforsaken hell that is, have really helped independent thought get a foothold and maybe have helped to level the playing field,  even if just a little...I hope I sometime find the time to read what you have worked on...Best of luck with it!!

^God!  This Dillweed sure knows how to make a reply way too long!
