Hi Colin
I am currently at No 12 with my Mary's Magic Muffins & Other Tales for Children. I am looking for support of it to take me nearer the coveted ED. I return reads with an honest feedback. As I think it is best to be honest. I will be here for a long time and will support anyone who helps me make it to the desk. Thank you for taking the time to read this message.
Brian.

Hello. How are you? I would appreciate to switch comments and feedback with you! Would you be able to do the same? If you want to read the rest of the book....it is finished and on Kindle and paperback on Amazon.com. Proceeds are going to mental health facilities and burn survivors. Would you support? I am so blessed to be able to help others with my story. I hope I will be able to stop even just one person from doing something drastic like I did. I will put your book on my wl and comment:)God bless!Bethany.

This is a great profile picture. The eyes of the writer reflecting the reader?

Hello Colin, not for the squeamish but I hope that you will take a look.
Of course, I’ll read your own book should you upload one and get back to you with an honest comment afterwards.

Short Pitch.

Big, Ed Riley’s paid his debt to society. Over four years behind bars. He knows who shopped him. Powerfully built and honed to perfection. Someone won’t sleep very well tonight...Big Ed’s out!

Thank you, Colin. I'll send you the story today or tomorrow. I have also deleted the message with your email as I am a strong believer in maintaining privacy. As you know, ANYONE can read messages on here.

Hi Colin,
I have found a story that might be OK for the collection. (If it's not, just ditch it.) When you and I are both online at the same time, message me and we can exchange email addresses. (I don't 'do' FB.) I shall delete your email from here as soon as I make a note of it and I ask you to do the same, please, to protect our privacy.
Bests,

Colin,
A big thank you for backing Still Waters. I appreciate it very much as the support is more than welcome.
Can you let me know when you publish Damaged Goods. I didn't get around to reading all the stories but enjoyed the three I did read.

Again, a big thank you,

Chris.

Hay :) I have not seen you around here before, I am looking for people who might help me improve my book by reading it and commenting? I can offer in return that I read yours, and do my best to return the favor. Can you message me if you would like to do this?

Hi Colin,
Thanks for thinking of me! That would be great. I have got a couple of short stories from a child's viewpoint. Not sure how strong they are but I won't be at all offended if you don't want them!
What sort of length are you looking for?
Quite exciting at the moment, down the ole homestead, as Broomsticks is just coming out as a paperback, too.
What is happening with Damaged Goods?

You are most kind, Colin. Thank you so much. I am truly happy to see your writing is moving onward and upward. If you ever upload any more of your short stories, please let me know.
Best wishes

Dear Colin - thank you so much for keeping my novel on your shelf. It's because of your backing that my numbers are improving and I am very grateful. It's slow going for me because I don't like spamming, but your shelving has been encouraging and helpful.
Best wishes

Thank you, Colin. You were one of the first, if not the first, to support "In a Cat's Eye" on authonomy, and your forum posts on the book gave it a big boost, without which the book might never have caught the attention of the editors.

Dear Colin,

Thank you so much for rebacking "In a Cat's Eye." You were one of the first supporters of the book, and welcomed me to authonomy when I first became a member.

"Damaged Goods" remains one of my authonomy favorites, and one story in particular is on my list of all-time favorite stories I've ever read anywhere. Until just now I did not know that a "Damaged Goods" story won the Writers' Forum first prize award. Belated congratulations; well deserved.

Best wishes,
Kevin

Dear Colin,
As a huge fan of Pete, I am delighted that Wilberforce & Grace made it through to the other side in its dubious quest for the ED. Very well deserved, Pete.
But I know that you will no doubt share with me the bitter-sweet sentiment, as W&G's ascension means that you have an empty space on your shelf to fill.
Ah, the angst.
Well, in order to help those such as you I have posted Fresh Meat, a comic paranormal novel set in the sunny tropics.
I know what you are thinking. You are thinking "I don't really like paranormal" or "I prefer paranormal novels set in places where it is cold and shitty the whole time" or "Did I remember to turn off the kettle?"
Well, fear not- most kettles these days turn off automatically. And Fresh Meat is a novel written for people who don't usually go for paranormal.
Won't you take a look? I can guaranty a laugh, or your money back.
All the best,
Maeve
