I think there are some people that have vision problems that make a black background with white letters hard to read, but there are also some who have a hard time focusing on the ordinary black letters on white, so there's no way to please everyone, lol. You just have to make it how you like it. I know I'm about to change my colors or background again because I can barely see the black font on my About Me and right side links with the current background :(Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15165210377903518274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-26728472032846851962015-06-07T23:39:36.787-04:002015-06-07T23:39:36.787-04:00Hi Chrys,

Too bad about the 1 star. You can't please everyone all the time. Chalk it up to someone having a bad day.

I noticed a couple of those reviews on your books and down voted them for being silly. It's not like you hid the fact that you had gay characters in your books.

There have been a lot of stories that I stopped reading because I wasn't in the mood for it at the time. I never rated them though.<br /><br />I'm not sure what happened to the dedication. I don't think it was cut for being too long because the dedication for Witch of Death is fully intact.<br /><br />Gina is okay. I've talked to her recently.

It's not a big problem for me. And I know green is your favourite colour so please use it more often! I like the current font choice. Reading your blog is comfortable. (And I wish the anonymous person, however well his initial intentions, had been less rude.)<br /><br />I have had a reader drop my book because it just wasn't the right story for her at that time. And I was okay with that. I'm a reader and I've had to drop books, too. Doesn't mean they were bad stories.<br /><br />And I'm sorry about the dedications. I'd rather my editor tell me before publication that it was too long and needed to be shortened instead of finding out it'd been cut later on. (By the way, have you heard from Gina? She hasn't been around for a while and I tried tweeting her. I just hope everything is all right on her side ...)Yanting Guehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04788603550626277974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133489888936435050.post-28960715638511478052015-06-04T19:17:41.540-04:002015-06-04T19:17:41.540-04:00Thank you!
