Mark Young replied to Jean Henry Mead's discussion Those nasty, rude one star reviews!"I just ignore it, Jean. Sorry you experienced this. I find that the more books I giveaway as free, the more nasty comments seem come back."
"A truly objectionable review is a sign that you're doing something right, in my opinion. You've upset someone with your art, and only the master can make someone really angry like that. Take Picasso -- he is a stylist of great genius, and…"
Jean Henry Mead replied to Jean Henry Mead's discussion Those nasty, rude one star reviews!"B&N allows comments but this person just leaves a one star and moves on to the next book. I've never seen that done before."
"I assume the fact that this sick person leaves no comments on B&N is because they don't allow comments? Yes, some of these people need to be blocked from all sites."
Jean Henry Mead replied to Jean Henry Mead's discussion Those nasty, rude one star reviews!"When a reviewer keeps changing her name so that she can repeatedly attack a book to ruin it's rating, I call that sick. An inexperienced writer might be so disgusted that she would stop writing entirely. I have a publisher, but like so many…"
Jean Henry Mead replied to Jean Henry Mead's discussion Those nasty, rude one star reviews!"Debbie, there are constructive 1 star reviews and there are downright nasty comments such as "You may think you're a great author but you're not. lol."

"Well, there are authors who have trained their "well-meaning friends" to promote as well as to object to bad reviews. It may be clever and productive, but all such manipulation leaves a bad taste behind.

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”
Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."
Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"
Book Synopsis:
The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.
Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.
The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.

I gave my husband the Sony e-reader but that's not backlit. I use an Ipaq (which is backlit) and love it--I even read the news on it downloaded from Avantgo.

- Thanks so much for the congratulations. I have Dick Powell as Philip Marlowe and William Powell as Philo Vance. As you probably know, most of these detectives have been portrayed by more than one actor (some of them abominable choices), but the ones I put on here are my personal favorites.
