Careless Mistakes on the Kindle

Hey, this book really fascinated me. I started reading it on my kindle but the careless grammar mistakes make it intolerable to read. This is not the first time something like this occurs to a book in my kindle, I really believ amazon should look into that.

Re: Only one that keeps Journal/Diary entries?

some things are best forgotten :lol: no, just kidding. i think it's a fantastic idea, one i'm too lazy to implement but i noticed that when you post at a forum like this one over time, you can go back and read old threads and get a similar feel for how you might have changed. I see, it's kind of th...

Re: Only one that keeps Journal/Diary entries?

I have kept an diary on and off since I was a teen (so a while now). I don't use it as an aid for my writing, but it does help me to release some of the stresses of the day. Also when I look back on past entries, it helps me to put into perspective an issue that has been worrying me. That's true! I...

Only one that keeps Journal/Diary entries?

Also it'...

Re: 50 Shades of Grey Trilogy, Bestseller? HOW?

I have not read "Fifty Shades of Grey" or its sequels. I asked my daughter if she had read it and liked it (We discuss books a lot - she put me on to "The Hunger Games"). :) Her response: "It's okay, if you like BDSM porn." :blush: Hahahhaa :lol: BDSM :p. Anyways, I al...

Re: Kindles and iPads and Nooks, oh my!

There's are all good points. Another great advantage of all the ebook devices available today is that a lot of authors are able to self publish their novels :)

Re: 50 Shades of Grey Trilogy, Bestseller? HOW?

Welcome to BookTalk. It's a great place for readers and writers alike! First of all, I am happy for any indie author who makes it big. I see the great success of 50 Shades as encouraging news for all of us indies. I have not read the novel, as erotica (or soft porn) is not a genre I am in to. Howev...
