I REPEAT: WE’VE GOT OUR FIRST BOOK ANALYSIS!
- It all started some days back, when a company called Allwrite Advertising & Publishing (who’s a Facebook friend of us), launched a Following Contest on the above-mentioned social network, on YouTube and on Twitter, the winner being promised a free book analysis. They’re from Atlanta, Georgia, and have a pretty impressive portfolio in the publishing business.
- So, like the panther I am, I jumped my accounts within seconds and finished the contest first!
- Then, I let All Writers know I participated and they congratulated me for being the winner. Sent the book (with my heart pumping in my chest) to them and we got back the results in no time!
- And I’d say they are EXCELLENT considering this is a first novel written by an author who doesn’t have English as native language (but who owns in nonetheless: D).
- Next in line, All Writers offered us a very affordable fee for stepping to the second stage of the process, the book review. I wrote them telling that we agree and now we’re just waiting for their feed-back regarding the money transaction (seeing that Andrei is currently in Tampa Bay, Florida)
- As I said, I’m so proud of him and the book, you’d think I was the one who wrote it!
- Hope to come back soon with even more good news!
- PS. I’d like to thank a very special friend named Oly Saldinger, the drummer of Raizing Hell Band, (Bucharest, Romania), who offered me some moments of his time to calculate the means for every sub-chapter analyze and to give me back the overall results. He did that because I was too tired and busy to calculate, but mostly because he’s a great, great pal!
- So, (in order not to keep you any more in suspense), things look like this
- On a scale from 1 (which is very bad I guess) to 5 (very good) CRUX was rated as follows:
