A Novel
How many novels have you read featuring a character with social anxiety?
In CULTIVATING A FUJI, launched four weeks ago, the main character, Martin, struggles with it all his life. I'm delighted this novel is getting noticed. It was after being on this forum for several years that I became passionate about raising awareness of social anxiety. Here are a few of the comments:
You can find it on Amazon as kindle or paperback. Here's the link to the UK site: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cultivating...dp/1094806749/. I also wrote a non-fiction book about social anxiety, and that, too has received some great reviews: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Social-Anxi...dp/1974208540/. |

Re: A Novel
Is it well written? I'm a dreadful snob about things like that.

I couldn't possibly answer that myself, choirgirl, but I can quote from a review (http://www.booksarecool.com/2019/cul...iam-rewarding/):

Re: A Novel
I've recently finished reading this beautifully written and touching novel and can highly recommend it.
I think you have done a fantastic job in raising awareness about social anxiety and the struggles of living with the condition I wish you continued success Chach P.S. I'm rubbish at writing book reviews but I have left one on Amazon. |

Re: A Novel
Thank you, Consolida! I'm so glad you liked my novel.
I don't know which review is yours, but there's no such thing as a rubbishly-written book review. Authors appreciate every positive review - the more the better. It doesn't matter how long (or short) they are. The fact that a reader has bothered to record an opinion is really important. Thank you so much for your review. |

Re: A Novel
As I may have said before, I can't rate your book 'Cultivating a Fugi' highly enough, Chach. It was a great read
Btw, my review on Amazon was by a 'random reader' Do you have plans to write anymore novels? I hope so |

Re: A Novel
In that case, Consolida, your review is excellent. If you think it isn't, that's due to a lack of self-esteem - something we probably all struggle with.
My current plans are to work on my first novel, which has now left my publisher, before searching for a new home for it. I'm also working with another author to complete an unfinished trilogy. I definitely want to write more novels, but I probably wouldn't choose to have another main character with social anxiety. |
