Over 300,000 words?! SWEEEEEEET!!! More reading makes me happy!
@Michael - related to this, I am not happy with Amazon or Audible (on your behalf) about reviews.
One of the reasons you and many authors pre-release books and audiobooks (on other platforms) is to help generate reviews on the big sales platforms, before, at the time of or very shortly after the release of the book, to drum up sales and move the algorithm to suggest it to the right people.
Amazon and Audible both are blocking me from writing reviews, for the latest one, since I haven't either "read enough" of the audiobook on Audible, and it isn't in my library, or I am simply don't meet the "minimum eligibility" to write a review on Amazon,
I like your books, but I'm not going to pay for them twice to write you a review.
Any suggestions for getting around the review lock-out?
