Amazon Exposure Day - A dream shared by many authors, myself included...

"I think we should write Amazon and encourage them to have an 'exposure day' once a year. That day they lift the veil and everyone gets to see who bashed you. Heck I think they'd get a ton of traffic and probably even sell a few books, the papers would report on it. Of course there'd be a brief peak in the homicide [and] suicide rates shortly afterwards, but whatever. Its all in good fun."
~Christine Conners
Author of:
From High Heels To Bunny Slippers: Surviving The Transition From Career To Home (Coming Soon!)
Lost! Is Your Child Prepared?
Lipsmackin' Vegetarian Backpackin'
Lipsmackin' Backpackin': Lightweight Trail-tested Recipes for Backcountry Trips

As an author myself, having had at least one totally bogus review that was probably made by a competitor, I think the idea of 'exposure day' is great.

I've never met Christine, having only communicated with her via email. I'd bet that her books are just as humorous and fun to read as her emails are.
