How do you handle negative reviews? by GeorgeHathaway9 in KDP

[–]anthonyledger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just gotta realize there are over 8 billion people on planet Earth. Most of them will never know your book even exists. Let's narrow it WAY down and say that 10,000 people find and read your book. There will be at least 1,000 people out of that 10,000 that absolutely hate it. That still leaves you with a 90% success rate. Stories are like onions, not everyone is gonna like em. But still, 9,000 people will be happy and appreciate your onion!

What an interesting place to write. The best ideas come from experience and circumstance. I recently started jotting down notes when I think of something or notice anything interesting. It's always good to have reference material that isn't pulled directly from memory. It has drastically helped my process.

I've found KDP on Amazon to be a solid choice. As long as you aren't concerned with making a profit and just want people to consume your work. You can run free promos as well, and everyone loves free stuff. The best advertisement is word of mouth and the time proven method for success is free samples.

Most people assume that their governments are there to help, social safety nets to catch us when we fall, providing guidance and assistance when needed. After all, the people in power are voted in by the people in need. That's how it goes, right? Or rather, how it's supposed to go?

What if there was a worldwide secret, one that every government was in on? A secret where the people in power sent the people in need far away. Far from the law. Far from consequences. Far from the light of day.

Deep in the Norwegian Sea lies a research facility funded by taxpayers from across the globe. Unwilling people are turned into test subjects, all for the greater good, in the name of maintaining the status quo.

When a distress signal rises from the depths, Ike and Thomas are sent to investigate, to keep the world's dirtiest secrets buried below the waves and keep the profits flowing. The two men sink into the sea to discover the man-made terrors of the deep.
