“It seems that you’ve been living two lives. One life, you’re Thomas A. Anderson, program writer for a respectable software company. You have a social security number, pay your taxes, and you… help your landlady carry out her garbage. The other life is lived in computers, where you go by the hacker alias “Neo” and are guilty of virtually every computer crime we have a law for. One of these lives has a future, and one of them does not.”
Agent Smith to Neo
~ The Matrix
Your book does not have a future in the Bookstooge world. So take that blue pill and wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe about your book, because if you took the red pill, I’d rip your book to shreds and make you wish you’d never entered Wonderland. So for your sake, there is no red pill.
Okay, so now I see that I have been approaching this entirely wrong 😉

Hi Bookstooge.
Thank you for not reviewing my books. I think their little pages are getting scorched, just standing this close to the fire!
Looking forward to trading quips on the blog and not seeing my babies burned to crisps.

I’m glad you read this page. After the debacle that was the Gods of the Mountain, I just don’t have time for that kind of thing…
