June will probably be even better. By looking at my daily sales, you can see when school lets out and starts back up again!<br /><br />As for the wankers, I think I'm disappointed in people's behavior more than anything. This business is very subjective. One person's success does not mean sales are taken away from another writer. In fact, it usually means just the opposite.Suzan Hardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04600258874634909988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5384027358660553150.post-41410746199157736632013-05-29T16:30:54.733-04:002013-05-29T16:30:54.733-04:00Yikes on the tanks - but I have no doubts things w...Yikes on the tanks - but I have no doubts things will go back up for you.<br /><br />No doubts.<br /><br />As for the wankers you mentioned, well, wankers will be wankers. That's why I call them wankers.The Happy Whiskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13438469476168485775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5384027358660553150.post-69227541283565203592013-05-29T11:12:07.303-04:002013-05-29T11:12:07.303-04:00Thanks, Angie.

It resulted in bizarre behavior from friends from both sides of the fence. I don't think I'm telling anyone about trad deals ever again.<br /><br />- For that matter, I know longer tell friends when I put up an indie story. I've gotten some asinine comments from supposed friends lately about how I write too fast so my writing can't possible be any good.</i><br /><br />I know you know this, but just for drill, and because it can be nice to hear it, I'll say it -- this kind of crap says more about them than it does about you. Ignore the idiots and do your thing, which is obviously working. {{}}<br /><br />AngieAngiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11920578701763415331noreply@blogger.com
