Sup from Detroit.
Every once in a blue moon I check GR to see how readers respond to my work. I have tough skin, taking the good with the bad and even the DNF's and rude talk that comes with it.
But here's the thing, I DO NOT write to make a living (although that would be tits) I write because I can't not write. But there are author's that do (lucky them) and maybe one day that will be me. But that day is not today.
So when a review goes from critical to cruel I do take issue with it. Especially when I catch on that it's on behalf of others. Ladies, gentleman, aliens... whoever reads me chill the fuck out.
If you haven't caught on yet with titles like BRUTAL, BRAWLER, BERSERK and wait for it... BALLISTIC I write over the top. I write things that I wish I could do. Take the law into my own hands? Fuck yeah, if I knew how but I don't know how so I make shit up.
For me if I don't write a part of me dies.
A character fizzles out and I get pissy.
I write in the first person with dual POV's, my work will have mistakes (because lighten the hell up) oh and as I've said before, it's dialogue heavy. In my head the words run like a movie with subtitles and I can't help that, won't help that because that's how I write.
So if you haven't read me and are considering it, there now you know I write like I do so you won't be shocked by it.
If you are a repeat reader picture me giving you a world class lap dance because I love you for it.
Be kind to each other,
KS
