Slow Progress in Posting Reviews
I apologize for my slow progress in posting reviews. I have been under the weather and up to my *** in alligators in a dark swamp of despond (See swamp on the left.) Some of the books got soggy, hence I've been unable to do much reading. I do appreciate all the submissions I've received and I promise I'll get them read asap. However, I have chosen the winner of for the best 2006 book I reviewed and will announce it as soon as I can get the review written. I do appreciate your submissions, many of which are pretty good writing and a few excellent, and don't despair or give up on me.
About My Reviews:The books being published by the mega-list conglomerate publishers do not include a great deal of very good writing published in alternative presses, specifically Print-on-Demand (POD) and conventional self-published works. Although I review books that do follow the traditional route to publication, I prefer to review self-published books and those published by small, independent houses.
If you would like for me to review your book, send me a copy to read. If I review it, you will be a finalist for the $100.00 prize I am offering for the best book I review published in 2006. Rules for submitting a book are at my Web Site
