As I understood the biggest complaint I got over at The Other Board, there were two issues: one was writing style, that I'm rather more wordy than modern children's books tend to be these days. The other (as I'm understanding it) related to vocabulary. Well, one person's "wordy" is another person's "charming" so I'm not letting that bother me, but I do wonder whether I should run my stories through a reading level program and see whether I am expecting too much from my audience.
On the other hand, children's indy books are a hard sell anyway, and non-illustrated ones an even harder sell just in general, so maybe I should be pleased that anyone at all is downloading my books.
