A day after I wrote a post about asking people for what you want on Social Media, I finished reading Ginny Baird’s ‘The Sometime Bride’. Ginny’s was the first ebook in 22 ebooks I’ve read until now to ask me to engage with her explicitly.

I had fun shooting this one… Look carefully you can see my sneakers :D The location was amazing with a great night sky and painting the tent from inside with light was something I was trying for the first time…. A few attempts did it though :D

What do I like about this photo? Just the colours and randomness… :)

Amazon seems to be getting very restrictive recently both towards authors and readers. It seems Amazon is trying to increase sales and monopolise the market by forcing authors and sites such as GoodReads to link only to them.
