#WritersCoffeeClub Oct 16
How do you feel about people reading your works without buying a personal copy?
Getting it from a library? Great!
Getting a copy from a friend who purchased an ebook? Fine. Please review
Pirating? Feels frustrating after all the effort & money I spent to put out a good book, plus they don't cost much. They can at least make an effort to leave a review somewhere so other people might buy it.
I currently have one of my books available to read for free on my site.
