Man! I hate self promoted books!


With a great premise and a well written promotional post. Only to discover the book isn't anywhere close to what it could/should have been.

I'm not going to embarass anyone, but doggone! If you can SELL a damned old book on MR, you ought to be at least able to write the thing to a minimal level of quality.

This isn't the first time I've wasted money and TIME on some junk. Sorry folks, but I'm going to assume all self promoted books are crap until the overwhelming evidence indicates otherwise. We are talking about my sanity here. My hobby isn't finding great new authors in a crowd of hacks, it's reading good books.

(i know, I know, someone will write in and claim they have found some real gems in this forum. But they never say just how many frogs they had to kiss till they found the prince!)
