Felix Long asked Alistair Potter:

Dear Alistair, How are you? Oh how I miss Edinburgh at this time of year. I am new to Goodreads and am always looking for something interesting to read and review. My own novel, 'To Conquer Heaven' may be of interest to you. Please PM me for a free copy. Best wishes in 2017. Regards, Felix Long

Alistair Potter Hi Felix, when I got your message I was just 'finding my feet' in Goodreads and wasn't sure about responding to every contact. Anyway, Edinburgh is fine - with the new excitement of a 20mph limit in many streets. This is causing various melt-downs with naturally impatient people, who haven't yet worked out that getting to the next red traffic light before everyone else is not any faster than those that just cruise along. I'm currently reviewing within "Genre Specific Review Groups" - they seem like a nice bunch. Regarding your 'free copy' approach - how has that been going? Have you drummed up any reviews or sales increase? I'm probably in the same boat as you, trying to get some traction and exposure, so any useful hints would be appreciated. Cheers, Alistair.
