    That sounded like a lot of work…purchasing, writing , linking, commenting, quoting, and recommending….so maybe it IS easier to criticize an author….just saying..

      Hi @Coffee with Joan Well, all those things do not happen at one time. If you truly appreciate an author, then it is not work at all. Just sayin…

    I don’t think you have to do all that. I would appreciate an author by looking them up, to see what other things they’ve written. Having enjoyed a book is enough appreciation an author ever needs. For some authors they’ll need to know you paid for it though.
