The Authors Heart
No-one ever speaks of this and it's time to be shared.
It's hard being an author and giving your heart hoping to help and uplift the reader.
I don't write for the money, as I make about $1.50 per book or sometimes less. Unless hundreds or thousands are sold, an author makes nothing.
I have spent out much more getting my books on the shelf than I have ever earnt.
So why write? and why give away my books for free?
Because everyone likes what they don't pay for and you hope that at the very least, they will write a review saying what they thought of the story, either good or bad.
At the moment my heart is discouraged. I have been unwell for a long time and just beginning to pick up.
To see my books don't make a difference, and don't make the person who reads feel good, is a letdown.
I am unsure whether to keep trying or give-up as a failure?
This is in Gods hands.

Widow of Raymond Isaac Lindsey..... And an author since 2012 and retired Specialist Registered Nurse. I reside in sub-tropical Queensland, Australia, with my two little dogs.
Late in 2008 I began to explore and enjoy the realm of creative writing. This is something which has always been an interest yet until now,I haven't found time to indulge.
God is the cornerstone of my home and heart. He is my life and my breath, for without Him I am nothing. My desire is to edify His existence in my daily walk through life. To inspire and encourage the broken hearted. And to assist in the knowledge that EVERYTHING has a reason and a purpose under the Heavens.
We are reminded through our faith in Jesus that He will, "Turn our Mourning into Dancing and our Sorrow into Joy." Psalms 30:11. Having personally experienced tough times I know, there is truly no gain without pain.
