Writing Tip:
Get a reliable water bottle. Doesn't matter what you fill it with. Just find a container that's big and reliable. Nothing ruins writing flow more than having to get up for the sixth time to grab a drink, and losing all that precious focus.

Why ask for book reviews?
We know each book review raises visibility.
After ~25 reviews, Amazon may include your book in the 'also bought'. It's rumored that at ~50 reviews, your book's discoverability is increased.

Writing Tip:
Don't assume that your editor/test reader is going to catch every error you've made in a current draft. Go back and go over the stuff they didn't give you notes for. Even if they say it's fine. Not obsessively, but with a keen eye.
