I just wanted to quickly say I'll be closing my Goodreads account early next week. I enjoyed being part of this group and I learned a lot of valuable information. You're all really nice which is rare for an online group. I've just decided I want to spend less time online, and when I was using this site I was constantly checking things like if I had ratings and reviews, and I found it made me feel terrible. Anyway, I just have to finish up a couple of paperback giveaways I have currently open, and then I'll be going. Bye! :)

I feel that way about checking my stats on amazon. I don't do it very often anymore. At least here I feel like I'm doing something that might have results. But have fun with whatever it is you do next!
I too went through a time when I had to make a conscious effort to cutback on my internet presence. I hope you find the right balance.

Thanks for the well wishes everyone. I'll be sad to not be part of this group anymore. I decided not to just go dormant because I know I'd still log in to check stuff, and I'd look at what my friends are reading, and there goes 3 hours :)
That is a shame, Mona but I understand totally why. I really appreciate all the help you gave me over the Smashwords nightmare I had:) If you want to keep in touch I think you have my email or drop me a PM and I will give it to you. If not fair enough and best of luck with your writing:)
Thanks Valerie, Alexandra and Scott :) Bye :)
