-====== Rules on Reviewing ======
-First off, you should know I only have a limited amount of time, so I can't review a hundred novels at once. Sorry, but that's basic physics for you. If I agree to review your novel, you may have to wait a while for me to get around to it, and then I'll need time to read it.
-===== Rules =====
-  - If it's traditionally published, I'll probably buy it //(if I'm not broke at the time)//
-  - If it is self-published, or through a publisher that uses print-on-demand, you'll have to send it to me. Sorry, but I'm reluctant to risk my money on something that doesn't look like it's gone through the filters of an agent, publisher and editor.
-  - I rarely review collections or anthologies
-  - You must request a review - they don't happen automagically //(although sometimes, magic does happen)//
-  - If I think my comments would harm your career, I won't publish them. If you have a thick skin, you can get a personal copy.
-  - Don't get pushy if you begin to sense inertia. If I agreed to do it, I'll get around to it as soon as I can. I'll email you to let you know when it's done.
-To request a review, simply fill out the comment form below. Only I will see it. Don't forget to leave a real email address or it'll be difficult to talk to you.
-//* I don't store email addresses on this site, or, in fact, any publicly accessible server, unless you have specifically subscribed to a discussion in order to get automatic notifications when that discussion is updated. Addresses are obfuscated for security.//
