I lost my faith in publishing

 Why don't I join Writing groups?


There are many reasons why I rarely join a writing group online; though my friend in Seattle sends me links.
One of the main reasons is over the years, I have found many of the sites are a scam, out to make money of writers who believe the site will help them. The only people who benefit are the people running the site, you usually get asked to buy their books to help sell your book.
Another reason is I find the sites do depressing, when I read teports of book sales, and think how I struggled for over a decade before I realised the Draft2Digital network was keeping most of my royalty fees.

What I found offensive, again, is she assumed having large reasts, and in her case an oversize bottom was what I like In short, she has nothing of interest for me..

Many of the books are also signed, I never covered the cost I paid, my thinking is I may as well get something back as I never read the books, and there maybe someone who will read the book .
