If possible, as you gain expertise, would you mind updating your blog with extra information? It is extremely helpful for me.fatimashaikhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18076065329148808767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6351306725040869389.post-1216095975048497872012-12-31T10:03:18.411-08:002012-12-31T10:03:18.411-08:00Scalzi's blog is named Whatever.

Amazon will review them if enough people do that. This past year, author John Scalzi had several of his books ripped off by someone who had the chutzpah to self-publish the rip-offs on Amazon. Scalzi asked his readers to spring into action, and it worked. See his blog, Whay=tever, for details about how to word the objections so that Amazon really reads them.sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08373027426802320587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6351306725040869389.post-25308885698242638182012-12-31T00:50:21.542-08:002012-12-31T00:50:21.542-08:00Dave, thanks for your actions.

Perhaps I banned you in error; if so, I apologize. But I don't recall the incident, and I don't remember you personally, so I can't comment further. Regardless, the issue here is quite different. I've never gone on anyone else's Facebook page and left a message similar to what's being left on some authors' books in the Amazon section. If I did, I wouldn't blame the person for banning me in the slightest.<br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11125677714330767458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6351306725040869389.post-89765116658884913502012-12-31T00:36:43.595-08:002012-12-31T00:36:43.595-08:00I made one comment on your page.

Someone threttened to leave your page after not liking something on it so I said something like "LOL why say something like that instead of just unliking the page" and I got banned for that. Pretty trivial if you ask me. Now you are complaining about posts on Amazon. Quite a few of the positive posts on those books are just as vague as the negative ones.

You, however, seem to have a serious problem with the author. Perhaps you're this "Sissy McMillan" person in question? Maybe you should, perhaps, move on? Or do you revel in vetting your anger upon a captive audience like some immature child screaming for attention? I, however, will move on. I'm done with you. Good-bye, and may Goddess move you into a path that is less angry and negative.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6351306725040869389.post-41177885236589656822012-12-31T00:30:38.722-08:002012-12-31T00:30:38.722-08:00I have no idea who "Raven" is, but I do,...I have no idea who "Raven" is, but I do, from time to time, remove people from my Facebook page - just as I feel justified in removing people from my home if they're rude to me.

No worries...you can delete this one as well if you wish, seeing as how it was in relation to the one you removed.<br /><br />Incidentally - the comments on Amazon that were 1-star, I reported most of them for abuse in that they were targeting you specifically without contributing anything useful toward the review of your books. Only 1 I left untouched - it was just someone that didn't like your book (boo-hoo) but actually seemed to have read it, and wasn't targeting you specifically.<br /><br />Blessings for the coming New Year!!!<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6351306725040869389.post-1364284472156751432012-12-31T00:24:28.569-08:002012-12-31T00:24:28.569-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Ravenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04455594433495275070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6351306725040869389.post-12941137517112517482012-12-31T00:21:16.956-08:002012-12-31T00:21:16.956-08:00What??
