Ask people to do book swaps. 8)

It's a process, Lexi; sometimes frustrating. You're "competing" with thousands of other writers here and "out there".

First, and maybe foremost at this site: Make new friends. Ask them kindly, and with tact, to please read what you've slaved over:) Don't spam, though. One... Show more

Forgive me. I failed to mention the group, "The Reading List." !!!! Advertise there!

To Ad or Not to Ad By: Chris-Jean

I believe the ads do a dis-service to this site, & are not representive of our writing. I am also concerned that a few are inappropriate for our younger members and defeats the object of having the family filter installed.

Personally, I would rather pay a few pounds/dollars non-returnable set up fee/annual fee to showcase my stories. BookRix would accrue the funds they need & the few that are guilty may be dissuade from having... Show more

Thanks Rebecca, if you wish to delete the pics from my posts now that you have seen them I respect that.

RebeckDawn

I sent the links ahead - so you can remove them now if you'd like :)

Thanks once again, Rebecca. I am willing to leave the matter in your hands & have deleted my posts. :D

I believe, hopefully, that you are working on replacing the editing feature in our posts. As it stands now, we are stuck with deleting the comment and starting over.

Which leads me to the very aggravating "This comment was deleted" posts. Any chance on getting rid of them? Why are they even necessary? In longer, "Important Post" threads, they can pile up quickly and make things look...well...distracting (you might have had to... Show more

I reread what I have written to avoid this problem. I find it helps a lot!

J.C. Laird

I would hope everybody rereads before posting. But if I change my mind on the wording, content or the post as a whole, I have to delete it, thereby creating those pesky "This comment was deleted" posts.

Hi obsessed.,
Can you give us more details so we can help you? Is there nothing inside a book when you open it to read, or are you unable to click on books at all? Please be as detailed as possible and we will do our best to help you solve this problem.

Thanks,
-The BookRix Team

Great, Tanya!

I just created a new book (for friends only) just to see how the new feature works. It certainly isn't as complex as the old, and to my delight the upload from my files showed up exactly as I wrote them in Word! All indentations, all italics. It was a breeze. Good,... Show more

@felixthecat - We're so happy that it worked for you, exactly how we planned it to! To edit your title, you need to click on "Edit Book" and then once you're in edit mode for your book, you will see three big buttons - the middle one is "Edit Book Info" and inside of that you'll... Show more

Unfortunately right now we don't offer the 'cover link' to post the book on blogs and other pages. But it will be back soon. I will post an update in this group when it's back on. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Glynis Rankin

Alright, thanks for getting back to me.

I agree. It leaves you with a great workshop to work on your stories on site~ so you can pull or log into it at any time on any comp/smartphone/ tablet etc. I often create books for my eyes only that contain plot summaries, notes, maybe abstracts of chapters, character studies,... Show more

Along with using all those parts to create a finished project for sale.

We at BookRix are really happy to read this. :-)
We hope that future changes will add to this.
Thanks for your positive feedback!

Why can't I write a group message any more in my group, and what's with the Big White block on my page, that I can't remove? No need for a background picture if you got that blocking the view.

I stopped the sale on a book 4 weeks ago, the grace period was over yesterday, and now I see its back up for sale. I wanted to edit it, or at least delete it to start over, what happen?

Will we not be able to use HTML or any other code... Show more

Hi ripples,

No, I'm sorry to say that you can't send group messages anymore - but if you create a new post, it will still send a notification to all the members, just like the group message did.

The big white block on your page is to make all your info easier to read. A lot of... Show more

Hi everyone. From now on I will post updates from the BX development team in this group. While I'm writing this, we're doing the last steps for the launch of the new and improved BookRix. As soon as you will have access to this site (which you have when you're reading this ;-)), we are already working on a list that contains the next steps (bugs that will be fixed as well as further improvements). I will inform you about... Show more

PS: And please be lenient toward my English; unlike our Community Management we are not native English speakers, just a couple of German nerds working on that BX stuff. :-)
