Purchasing and reviewing other authors work then discovering they want to review mine if they can get the book free. In a business where we all depend on sales to keep our titles in the limelight, why do so many authors want to read and review your books only if they can get it free. I understand that reviews are important but we also want and need to sell our books. Trading books is one answer or we can all follow the lead of author Rita Gerlach and request that the reviewer pass the book on to the next person wanting to do a review, thus limiting the number of books we give away. Still it bothers me that when I am willing to purchase and review an author's material, they are not willing to reciprocate.
Have a great day, Beverly J Scott
