With my lack of knowledge of technical things, I seemed to have sent the book out without saving my changes of mistakes on the drive. My daughter read the mistakes and couldn’t find them. My fourteen year-old had an opinion…not!
“Did you like the book, and did you see the errors?” I interrogated. My daughter rubbed her nose, squished her face, and ran her fingers down her long smooth ponytail. Then she answered, finally!
“It’s okay, as it held my interest, but I don’t prefer romances. I think a romance girl will like it, but a science-fiction girl…nope! However, if I wanted to read a romance, I might start with yours!” And I took that as a compliment.
“What about the errors? I don’t know what happened. I corrected them, but I guess I saved it wrong. I know I saved it, just not on the right device maybe? There were some strong typos!” She shook her head.
“Didn’t notice them. You’re fine. Put the blog out and let people find it and read. Like I said, if I liked a romance I think I’d want to read that one. But seeing as how I don’t, I can only be your fan, but not your reader! Put it out there Mom, it’s time!” She left me standing there with her earphones now blaring probably, a drink in her hand, and a new syfy under her arm.
I understood that she was done; she wasn’t going to read any more of my book, and that was okay with me. It had to be! To get that much of a response out of her, well, let’s just say whale watching in Iowa might be a more substantial request. So, with that little tidbit of encouragement from my daughter, here it is; the book that can be downloaded on the ‘Kindle’ app. Just read it, and the sequel will be following soon. The second one is done, it’s ready, and it’s better! But one step at a time in That Part of Arkansas! Enjoy! V.M.Jenkins
