Don't worry about stats on the page.
It isn't the whole
Story. You can
Take all of those numbers and
React in a very
Aggressive way....but it won't help.
Can you see my point of view?
Try to write for yourself
Instead of worrying about
Ovations and pennies in your account.
Now, get to work...

It is more of a competition than about money. I want to be better that you, to think that my story is better than yours , kind of a thing. A contest. I keep saying, write for the love of it. But deep down, everyone wants the icing on the cake.
Thank you for liking my Father's Footsteps story!
