What's stopping you from tossing it up on the Kindle store for a couple of bucks and seeing what people do? Isn't it much more validating to know that the general public actually likes your book (as measured by sales), rather than some smarmy suit who'll ignore your phone calls and pretend you don't exist once the sales dry up?

If only there were things called "reviews", where authors could read what people have to say about their works ...
