Before the giveaway ends...

A scathing review has prompted me to post an addendum to the description of The Blogging Affair - not in defence, but in correcting my mistake of not setting the right expectations - an error I intend to rectify now.

This book is not for serious readers. It does not have characters one can relate to, the plot of the murder mystery is restricted to almost being an accessory, and it has no objective grander than to be a lighweight read. A large part of the book is devoted to elements other than furthering the plot. The writing style is patchy - from being all too-casual in depicting the incoherent, rambling thoughts, to almost too-formal for some of the 'asides'. All this is intentional. Editing errors are not and I can only regret about them. There is no defence for poor writing, and I will not attempt it.

At the least what I have attempted to do, is to be 'different'.
