This isn't a super big deal, but it did brighten my day!
I self-published a book a little less than a year ago. An old book of mine that I just didn't want to see trunked. Had it professionally edited, and had a professional cover done, and put it up!
It wasn't getting much of a response. Some lukewarm ratings on Goodreads here and there. I publish under a pen name, so I don't have any friends or family to read and sockpuppet for me, haha.
Anyway, in the last few days, I just got two reviews (MY FIRST) on Amazon---one 5 star, and one 4 star! With actual words about what they liked! I'm particularly honored because one was a review by my target age group! Yay.
And like I said, I don't have anybody in real life who knows I write, so they're actually genuine reviews!
This is just so exciting for me...
