Dear Reader, thank you! Bette Lee Crosby
Hello wonderful fanfriends!
Thank you for all your support for my books over the years! Your support in my writing is what keeps me going. I love reading all your emails and messages and reviews.
In 2017 I am writing a new series for you to enjoy!
Bent Pine Publishing is the company that my husband and I formed to publish my books. It’s fun to share my books with my readers and the most essential part of this business is finding and connecting with readers. Finding readers who are interested in my writing and buying my books is what keeps the business going.
Here’s where my fanfriends come in:
There is one thing that every reader can do to help an author – write a review online. It’s really simple, and it really, really helps improve visibility for my books. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, iBooks, Kobo and GooglePlay are the distributors we use the most.
It's easy and fun to do:
Log in or open an account with any or all of the distributors listed above.
This next part is really important…
If you bought the book from that distributor (for example Amazon) then just leave an honest review.
You’re done!
If you got the book any other way other than purchasing it, when you leave a review you have to leave a disclaimer – I received an ARC copy from Bette Lee Crosby. If you don’t add this Amazon and other sites may delete your review.
Leaving a review is the best way to help a book reach new readers. Each review improves its ranking, its visibility which helps contribute to new readers being able to find and purchase my books. The book will start to appear as a recommendation to new readers and it will have a Verified Purchase tag next to your review which will be taken more seriously by readers.
It’s a positive, giving circle and it all started with your review!
Thank you for your continued support and look for more parties, more prizes, more fun, and more celebration in the months to come.
Best wishes,
Bette

Thank you Jeanne! I’m so glad you’re enjoying them. 🙂 Do you have a favorite?
Thank you Jeanne!
I just completed a marathon of reading your books. I left a review for all of them. Keep writing. I love the stories.
I’m so glad you enjoyed Spare Change Carey! I can’t wait to hear what you think of the other stories. 🙂
Dear Betty Lee, Thank you so much for the book Spare Change, I cried (Happy and sad tears) through the whole book but I just plain loved it. I saw your book on PBS, it wasrecommended at the end of the show, and I didn’t catch everything he said, just ‘highly recommended’ and I happened to download it, just happened to download it!!!!!! Funny thing is I didn’t realize that it was the same book until I was done reading it….
…. For anyone who has not read this book, please do. It is more than worthy of your time. I cannot tell you how many books a week I read, anywhere from 4 to 15 depending upon my schedule, and this is by far one of the best I’ve ever read, right up there with Anne McCaffrey, who has been a constant favorite for more than 30 yrs.
Thank you again, Betty Lee, this book really touched me. This is a book I’d like a hard copy of so I can reread it again and again. The characters are still so vivid in my mind and it’s been a few weeks since I read your book. I rarely leave reviews because most online stories are nice but I read way to many to comment on just ‘nice’. I can’t wait to read Stories, I’m sure it’s as wonderful as Spare Change.
Thank you for the free book, but I can’t wait to go thru EVERY THING you’ve published and purchase as many as I can………..Carey Elizabeth Davis.
Thank you Shelley! I can’t tell you how touched I am by your words. I’m so glad you liked the series. I’m working on a new one for 2017. Hugs!
Dear Bette,
Thus far I have read/devoured the Memory House Series, The Wyattsville Series and Cracks in the Sidewalk. Thank you so much for writing stories that present real people with true hopes and dreams and disappointments and heartaches. The tone of each story is sincere and loving and empathetic which draws a reader into the characters’ backgrounds and their lives. An aspect I truly appreciate and enjoy is that faith and God are present. What a blessing for those who do not know Him or have fallen away to find His love and compassion and mercy along with His accountability in your stories! To me, this make the characters and the plot lines real. The world is messy and hurtful. People sometimes reap rewards and sometimes suffer consequences of their choices, but through all this God is love and He loves us all. Please keep writing. I am telling my friends and encouraging them to read and grow from your stories. Thank you so much.
