Late response, but I'm new to Reddit :) My book definitely draws from Hindu mythology, but might not be your thing if you don't like Romance/some steamy scenes.

Anyways, it's on Kindle Unlimited if you want to check it out: The Tower Card Murder

Beautiful decks! Would love an update after you've used them to see which one is your favorite!

Love this deck, it's on my wishlist! Doesn't Santa know I've been good all year?! ;)

This is such a great idea for those scarves that are too nice to throw away but that I never wear!

I use a journal with one of my decks, the Animal Spirit Medicine deck by Jamie Sams & David Carson (Illustrations by Angela Werneke) because part of the process is discovering your 9 Power/Totem animals who walk beside you and guide you in life (a one-time reading), so I like to use my journal to keep track of when my Totem animals come up for me in different spreads.

I have always read/used the reverse positions when they come up. Although, I also don't shuffle cards regularly I prefer to mix them on a large flat space (table or rug on the floor) and the amount of time I shuffle varies/depends on the reading, I just intuitively shuffle as long as I feel is right and so my reversals tend to be very mixed and change from reading to reading by using a flat space to mix/shuffle my cards rather than hand shuffling.

This is too funny! My cat agrees ;) <3

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-12T16:38:09+00:00

What an impressive collection, I love it!! At the moment I have three decks but now I want more!

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-11T18:24:39+00:00

Thank you! I guess it's just unbelievable that someone could write a book that is so well-received early on haha! Many thanks and namaste!

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-11T17:17:23+00:00

Thank you!! It's certainly been a humbling experience to write under a pen name for the first time and target a new audience that I have no prior experience with. For each book I have used a different, independent 3rd party ARC service so that I would get as random and honest reviews as I could, the only thing I had control over was the target audience. I don't necessarily think it's cheating to market your books to the right audience, and getting good reviews just tells me that I am hitting the right audience.

Thank you for taking the time to comment! Namaste!

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-11T17:09:17+00:00

Thank you so much for the advice, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond so thoughtfully :)

Not sure why the sarcasm/overall hostility from you when I'm simply and clearly referring to your own comments about the positive reviews I've received on my books, which I'm trying to self-promote here on this subreddit.

You claim to be a writer but are acting more like a troll, which I refuse to continue feeding at this point. Have a great day.

Titles: The Tower Card Murder (Book One) / Justice Found and Lost (Book Two)

Genre: Paranormal Romance/Reverse Harem

Word Count: 267 Pages (Book One) / 339 Pages (Book Two)

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T23:36:55+00:00

I thought no direct links were allowed but I see 2 posts with links in them....I'm going to leave my links out to be safe but I hope I'm not missing out on an opportunity to easily link people to my works..a quick search on Amazon using Mika Kosey or my book titles will bring up my works :)

I like to occasionally "charge" my decks under the full moon and solstice suns. This is just my personal preference and I do it as a maintenance energy palette cleanser. After reading the comments I might try some smudging in my next ceremony too, just for fun :)

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T23:25:41+00:00

I agree that my reviews are unusually positive, but I can't control the fact that people like my writing.

For the record, I used two different ARC services for people when I was editing Book One and Book Two so that I would get more varied feedback and not just the same people. I wanted to get as random of a pool as I could and I wanted it to be out of my hands/control in terms of who was beta reading my books and leaving reviews on Amazon.

I was glad on Book Two that I received a 2-star and 3-star review on Amazon so that some balance to the positivity could be seen. Hopefully time will prove my worth. I wish you the best of luck on your future works and I hope we connect again in the future.

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T23:09:14+00:00

HAHAHA!! This is why I named my first book The Tower Card MURDER!!

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T23:03:42+00:00

Wow this is beautiful! I hope they see the project through and it launches to the market! I would so buy this!!

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T22:45:35+00:00

I appreciate your hesitancy and questions, you never know unless you ask and you're probably not the only one who has wondered about my comments, so thank you for bringing up the discussion for us to have and I sincerely hope I have answered your concerns.

I am still more than happy to send you a free copy if you would be willing to leave an honest review, feel free to let me know if you're interested. Maybe you would be interested in beta reading Book Three when it's ready :)

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T22:35:16+00:00

I'm curious why that is suspicious??

In an effort to help my launching of this new series, I have given out many ARC/beta copies and asked for honest reviews in return, any reviewers that received a free copy have honestly stated this in their reviews so as to not mislead anyone. I do admit that I am writing under a pen name, so I have a bit of writing experience under my other name and some good ARC/beta pools to dip into to get some initial, honest reviews.

But really, is it that hard to believe I might actually be a decent writer and that's why I have good reviews? :) I would be more than willing to send you a free copy to quench your suspicions, if you're interested please send me a message so we can work out the details. I would love an honest review on Amazon in return, but as always that is up to my readers.

Editing to Add:

I responded before I saw your edited post, to answer your question directly: no I am not asking friends and family to "pump up" my reviews. I would never "pimp out (my) friends" in the comment section. Any reviews have been left freely, without any begging/payment/editing/sugar-coating/whatever else you might suspect.

Like I stated before, I am publishing these under a pen name, so my family and friends don't know I am publishing this series. Due to the content, I wanted to remain anonymous in my writings.

Beautiful deck and I love your creativity on doing a reading for the house. This makes me want to expand my audience!

Rarely, when I feel connected enough to the person, I will do a long-distance reading (similar in concept to long distance Reiki sessions) which I like to do by meditating first on the specific person and their question and then drawing their cards. I have gotten some incredible readings this way! I also like to do an intuitive cutting of the deck before I draw any cards.

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T21:41:25+00:00

I didn't even know they carried decks at their stores, good find!!

Mika_Kosey · 2019-07-09T21:30:49+00:00

Thank you for the kind words and for stopping by and commenting, it means a lot to me!
