It seems like every time I turn around there is something else to learn about the publishing industry, and there are more and more restrictions on what authors can’t do.
Nothing’s free. Not really.
Another thing I’m confused on is giving complementary advance copies of a book and ask the person to give a review. I’m a bit hazy on the particulars. I can’t really force anyone to post a review when I’ve given them a copy. I can request that they post a review, but I can’t mandate that they do or that it be a positive review. Also they need to say they received a complimentary copy and that their review is their own opinion and they weren’t required to post a positive review. That all makes sense. I’d want to know as much when reading a review.
There is just so much to know and learn. But, with persistence, I’ll get there.
