No one wants a masterpiece knocking around when your own book is looking for attention.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There is no denying the aesthetics of a well-made, well-loved book.
Nobody wants to read a 600 page book in which the author is fabulous throughout.
Everybody's idea of a great book is different, of course. For me it's one that makes my jaw drop on every page, the writing is so original.
No one writes a great book every time out, or even a good book.
A masterpiece... may be unwelcome but it is never dull.
The fact is that in this day and age I don't think any novelist can assume that a book will get attention.
I get to show the reader the essence of the book without giving anything away.
Even now I try to make each page compelling for the readers to get absorbed in the book.
Nobody wants an ugly book.
The books that everybody admires are those that nobody reads.
