So, I wrote my first blog post a couple of days ago...... now I have the fear of what to write next.

How do I keep people interested?
What can I write that sets me apart from every other blogger out there?
How do I get people to read it in the first place?

These are just a few questions that have filtered through my brain for the last hour or so. I don't have the answers to the questions, and I probably never will do. Everyone is different, and everyone has different interests. As someone who is an unknown, and only recently became a self-published author, I guess I am not going to be that interesting. If one day I become a household name, then I shall refer back to this post and encourage others to blog, blog, blog!!

Anyway, as I sit here and sip my cup of coffee and ponder what I should write about next, I guess the obvious answer would be: my book. Of course I should blog about my book. Won't that get me more sales? Won't a blog dedicated to my book entice more readers?
No. The answer is, no, it won't. What it might do is annoy people in which case, no one would bother to read my blog anyway. As much as I want to promote myself, there is only so much of that I can do before I start to get bored. (As a self-publisher, promotion takes a lot out of you so excuse my honesty on the fact that it bores me rigid after a couple of hours!) I am unsure if I should be admitting that, but hey, that's just my view.
Of course I love my story (Perfect Stranger) but I can't force others to read it no matter how much I want them to (although did you like how I added the link in there. A cheeky bit of promotion that is starting to come naturally.... see, I'm learning!).

On that note, I have decided to write about another book (and no, it isn't one of mine.) I am currently reading the Gender Game series by Bella Forrest. I have read the first six books, and I intend on starting the final book this weekend. If you haven't already read these books, then you are missing out!
This book series has had me hooked for the past month (give or take a few days). It has everything. Action, intrigue, underlying romance, heroes, plot twists.... you name it and these books have got it. I won't give any spoilers away as if you haven't read them then it would be a shame to spoil it for you.
What I will say though is that, this author has drawn me into her fictional world. I have engaged with the characters, and at times, I can almost feel the emotions that they are experiencing throughout the books. I have already recommended this series to a friend, and she has sped through the first book as she can't put it down.
A part of me is sad to be starting the final book, but at the same time I can't wait to see how it all ends!!
Bella Forrest, thank you for creating this fictional world!!

Much love,
Lindsey.
