Reviews-how to become better authors.

During the last few days I have had several reviews on a few of my books and I think they have been very helpful to me.
Sometimes people just write a sentence or two, saying things like “a good read, but would have liked it to be longer”.
The latest ones I have got have actually been very thought out and the reader tells me what they liked and what they didn’t like. I think that sometimes we writers are a bit too proud to want to make changes to the way we write, but this is wrong. Who do we write for? Some will say to ourselves which is true if the story ends up in a drawer but as soon as we put a price tag on it and sell it, we write for a reader.

We can continue to write the way we have done but I think we should listen to our readers and take note of their suggestions, especially if we want to keep them coming back and buy another book.

I for one will make some adjustments to my writing for the next books.
