Thank you for your review. You credentials are very impressive. What advise do you have for me to improve this book? Constructive critique is would be most helpful. I was thinking about adding more stories. Would that help?

Hey Ed, Sorry for the delay in answering. I had 2 doctor appointments yesterday and was busted. Trust me, I'm just a writer like you, struggling to find answers and help on what to do with the books I've published. The industry is fast-paced and changing daily. There are a lot of book-sharks out there that promise a lot and give very little for a lot of money. Beware. I loved your book. I wish you could give people a 4 1/2 or 4 3/4 because that is what I would have done. Having worked in Hospice 15 years, I see a huge benefit for this book to get out to caregivers and those struggling with their illness and faith. The only, I mean only, thing distracting is it needed some editing. I realize you were dealing with other people's stories, but editing them and not changing their story would have helped. But to be truthful, I don't think the majority of readers would even notice it. No, I think you just need to market this book and get it into the hands of people that will definitely be inspired and encouraged by it. Have you thought about coming to the Pamlico Writers Conference in Washington, NC next March? That's a good way to meet other writers and to sell your book. I would also get a free book in every home health/Hospice/hospital lobby I could put it in. If you have a couple of nurse's that work in geriatric that you could persuade to read the book, I think they would also help promote it.
