I'm desperately seeking readers too!!! We all are.
Wishing you luck in your quest, Matteo!
The same to you, Maggie! But I was kidding, I actually stopped seeking readers. Nobody wants to read my work, not even friends and not even for free. It's amazing. I guess they have some magic faculty and already know it's boring without even try to read it.
Marketing! Marketing! Marketing! Awesome and powerful God of Marketing, who sees everything and knows everything, bless us all in your infinite mercy.
I feel your pain, Matteo. Marketing is a lot of work and not nearly as fun as writing. I've spent the morning trying to garner nominations for G-1, and my efforts paid off as it surged into the Hot and Trending group - for today at least.At some point, most authors hope they won't have to do promotion, but I have to say that's not true. It's part of the game from indie writers all the way to those with Big Time Publishers.
I've been writing for publication for 20 years, so I am confident in what I'm putting out there, story-wise. The challenge is in connecting with readers of my new genre, science fiction. I came to this Kindle Scout campaign with mystery and romance fans. Thankfully, some of them are willing to follow me down another hallway.
Sorry to hear about your problems finding people to read and review your books. I am new to goodreads and have been looking for books and have only had the chance to do two if you need someone to read and review please let me know and I will be pleased to do that for you have always loved science fiction. My email is [email protected]
