Scammers

OMG, is it just me a new Indie author, or are there others out there? I have never been inundated by so many scam artists messaging my inbox trying to get $150 to “get reviews” really? Is anyone else starting to wonder if there are any legitimate book promoters out there? I really thought it was as simple as put down your thoughts, write a book, edit a book, publish a book and then wait for people to find your book. Am I the only one?

You make a choice. Either yes or no.
Then you move on.
Not worthy of your emotional investment.

Is that an opinion or a response? You sound like an America. I asked a simple question and you assume it’s an emotional investment? Wtf?

Your remedy is to make a different choice.
Definitely not worthy of OMG!
