@Cheri a lot of this disturbed me: his wife’s compulsive binge-reading habit, and the way he describes writing and reading—again, like fast food, all salt and fat and no taste. I’d rather read a classic from the library than pick up a book by someone who is churning out six a year. Yes, I have got stuck on several good series before, and rushed through them they were so good (Robin Hobb books; The Expanse series). But they were also well written, complex, with great characters and series arcs. So much of this self-Publishing lark is odious.
