A Future Outlook
I don't know how to explain this without possibly making me sound like I've lost my mind.
I know Lesbian Café is supposed to be extended. I know some readers were expecting it. Trust me, I had an email from a lady who also wanted it to be extended. My husband Larry and my best friend Amber did too.
Problem: The story has ended. I can't add more to it without losing the audience. My best bet would be to make a short story later with spice if wanted and like a better feel to it. That is all I can/could do if in the right direction.
All I can do is press forward. I do have new contents in the works. I can't go backwards for anything when my future is brighter. I have to make the right decisions for my career even if it's going to bite me in the ass. When I took down Lesbian Café on my reading apps to prepare for the extended version my audience disappeared in an instant. No one wanted to read my other books, they didn't want what they already have for the book, and who knows what else.
Now, yes, I did receive a rather 3.0 review on Audible recently because they judged the book. The book is fully edited. I went through WeInk because they have Grammarly to check for everything. It's part of the team building they have. I can't control what an Virtual Voice computer says that is out of my hands. It's also in 3rd person, no where in that book is it 1st person.
Am I stung by this review? Just a little. They can keep that opinion and buy the book from Amazon if it makes them feel better. I don't giving a flying crap what any reader thinks to be fairly honest. You can hate/love my books fine and dandy. As the Author these are my stories.
But, once a story is finished and has an ending. I can't change what is already there. I tried that with She's My Kind Of Country, I felt unsettled to change it. I couldn't do it. Sometimes a book is at it's end. The End. That is all.
It's back to the drawing board for my next 2 Novels. Facebook audience already knows. LinkedIn does too, I think.
So, this is my sincerest apology for those expecting an extended version of Lesbian Café. I'm so very sorry from the bottom of my heart.
Amber
