Help From Above (Second Edition)

Great story! Overcoming addictions is a favorite topic of mine :) My only advise so far is to break up some of your dialogue with some narrative :) It's great that you get right to the action, but I think some description would make it flow a bit better :) Hope that helps and best of luck with this :)

Shayzzee,

Thank you so much for your feedback. When I read, I enjoy dialogue more than narrative, which is why I tend to include more dialogue than narrative when I write my own novels. That said, I have listened to your feedback, and I think it could include more narrative, so I'm working on that. As you said, it probably would flow better.

Hi Misti, An uplifting story although there are complications when Ronald finds Kara and their reunion is with the drunken George. It's ironic how Ronald has his father but George is floundering and needs the support from above. Sometimes the story could do with some transitions - a little stiff in moving from one scene to the next. It's an inspiring read. Shelved - Katherine (The Swan Bonnet)

Misti: we all need help from above. This works for the Christian genre. BACKED! and good luck on here.

I can use your comments on my book when you get a chance. Cheers!

HELP FROM ABOVE
This is an interesting story. The idea of a personal angel being assigned to help someone recover from alcohol abuse is intriguing. You have good characters in both Ronald and George because they’re such good contrasts to each other. I think you’ll find an audience for this among people who are hoping angels are real so want to read this to see how it all plays out for Ronald and George. I’m adding it to my shelf.

Dear Misti,
Looks like you have put words to a generic book cover brilliant, well done with this. So your pitch both long and short are what drew me to your book. They promised me a good read, and guess what you did not disappoint, your book is a well crafted book that I could not put down. I have not read it all, but you dont have it all up, but will carry on. Your characters are painted so real with your art that they truly seem to be part of my life , well for the time being then you can take them home. This is about the best compliment I can give you and I wish I had half your talent.
BACKED BY ME FOR SURE
I do hope you will review my book, comment and most of all BACK it. but either way the BEST of luck with yours

Dear Misti, I love your sending an angel (Hebrews 1:14) to help your hero. :) Your pitch is excellent, so set the hook for me to read your book. :) When you use short paragraphs & lots of dialogue, it makes me want to keep reading to find out what's going to happen next. I'm backing your book. :) Could you please take a moment to back my 2 memoir books? Thanks. :) Love, Susie :)

I see you have been online a while, but since it took me months to figure out the system, I'm includin below authonomy's info:

This is information from authonomy (so beware of any other untrue information you may receive that is spam & not quotes of authonomy):
"When you back a book, it only improves the ranking of that book, not yours. However, the author whose book you are backing may decide to back your book also, in which case yes, your ranking would be improved"
"Every time you place a book on your bookshelf, your recommendation pushes the book up the rankings. And while that book sits on your bookshelf, your reputation as a talent spotter increases depending on how well that book performs."

Has another week gone by? Well, the weekend is upon us. What a great time to grab a cup of ice tea, comfy chair, and help us noobies get noticed by reading our work. If you are interested in this, please pick a book and let me know what you think. I would appreciate all comments and help . . . blessings, Pam

Hi Andrew W.,

Thanks for commenting. I'm glad you're enjoying the story. I will be adding more chapters as I complete them, so keep watching for the additional chapters -- there's many more surprises to come, and yes, George will continue to make it tough on Ronald.

I will be sure to head over and check out your book.

Blessings and best wishes,

Hi Misti,

This is a lot of fun and it gets straight on with it, there's no complexities around the way heaven works, just story. You do dialogue very well indeed, attribution is very effective and never over-played, you write the unreal in a very real way that lifts this guardian angel book above the ordinary. Ronald is a great character and I get the sense that George is going to keep him on his toys!

Best wishes and good luck
