I know some authors dwell on their reviews, soaring to great heights with the raves, and plummeting into despair over the harsh vivisection of others. I generally try to use them as a collective gauge. I know not everyone is going to love my books. I respect feedback, based on personal preferences and tastes….
Lately, probably because my brain has been frazzled (that’s a different story though;), my reading pool has been pretty narrowed down. I really do need to explore new authors.

I’ve revisited the opening for Borrowed Luck so many times. First time, there was too much setting. It took too long for something to happen. Then… I jumped into the action too quickly. Why do we care about this guy who’s getting into a fight? Then I reworked it.. to show Kirrin running an errand…
