Write What You Know and Experienced

 



I was a Human Directional (Sign Twirler) since 2012, except during the pandemic when many companies closed. The sign twirling job was my part-time job. Recently, I’ve become a supervisor which is a step up, and better for my tired feet. I am writing an eBook related the job.

  I will slightly change names of people and companies, that I worked for especially the recent company. The motivation for this book is to write down the experiences I’ve had as a sign twirler/supervisor while eagerly awaiting for the time I can apply for early retirement and end my employment with these companies for good. The book will be filled with pros and cons of the job and my interaction with coworkers, management, and the clients (realtors at the offices). Don’t expect any spicey, sex scenes, there is none, just information and my personal experiences that I had while working as a sign twirler. Yes, some people will be irked, but it doesn’t matter, for I am real and true to myself. I will be publishing under a pseudonym, not the usual pen name I use and I will not publish the book through Amazon Kindle (KDP). This book will only be available through Google Play and Apple Books.

Other books:

I am working on the hardcover version of Omega: Chandra’s Quest book 4, which will be out next month. Thank you, readers--those who have taken an interest in my books. Read, Rate and Review.

How I View Global Rates & Reviews

 


I recently noticed that one of my books received a global rate of 3 star. The book is the Spanish version of Secret Diary of a Gypsy Heart. I am not irked by it, in fact, I say thank you. The way I see it a 3 star rate is good. A 3-4 & 5 stars are considered good but a 1 & 2, is not. Global rates are fine but when a reader rates a book, 3 and below, constructive criticism should be added as a review. A 3 star means that the reader liked the book but there is something they didn’t like about it too.





 In this case, constructive criticism is important not just for other readers but for the author. I am pleased that someone took the time to rate the Spanish version of a Gypsy Heart, I thank the person. 



In the coming months Chandra’s Quest (the first book) will be available in Spanish as well, Saints and Sinners, & The Other Side of Things, will be converted into Spanish too. It takes time to convert a book into Spanish. Below is the list of books that will be available in Spanish in the near future:

 

Chandra’s Quest

Twisted Embers

Immortality

Omega

In the Company of Elves

Saints and Sinners

The Other Side of Things

I am still debating if I will make a Spanish version of The Stranger Things. All Spanish books will only be available as an eBook.
