Success for a writer can be defined in many ways. For some, success can only be defined in monetary terms. For others, world-wide recognition and fame are the incentives. But every once in a while an unsolicited review from a total stranger can put all my time and effort into perspective.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the most emotionally moving books I have ever read. July 28, 2013
By: Mary Lou Transue - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Drop Out (Kindle Edition)
Since I am 82 years old I read this book rivited to the story line with so many deaths. I have had most of my friends pass and many with Hospice Care so I was attracted to learn what Hospice does to ease the end of life.
The book was fast reading and very very moving. In a way it was extremely spiritual and it made me realize how lucky we all are for every breath we take and every day we live.
Although I have been depressed lately this book actually cheered me up. We create our own happiness was something I have known all my life but it brought it back into focus for me.
I do not rate many books five stars.. So to award this book that star rating and write a review is indicative of how I feel about it. Buy it and read it. You will not regret it.
Even though, a celebrity sells easily. So in a sense, becoming a celebrity today is paramount to having monetary success. You know many established authors are not as good as indies and vice versa. It is not the fact you're established that makes you good, and some become established and think they can get away with anything. So I usually read the beginning, if I like it, I keep on reading, regardless of who the author is. However, I know many people go by the celebrity status or other reasons. I'll check out your book.
