Patricia Anne Panahi replied to the discussion 'The Self-Publishing Debate - Opinions?'
"The issue is, self-published books are not vetted by anyone, so anything can get published - the awesome and the crappy. While there are some successes, the average sale of a self-published book is 75 copies. Dont' remember where I saw this…"

"Tina, My main character is female and she does grow and change in Iran. And this is a book geered to a female audience, so I guess I'll stick with Women's Fiction. Thanks for the advice."

Hi Patricia, I went to your beautiful Website and read your amazing bio and excerpt. I admire how willing you are to share your life story and certainly understand how the call to become a writer was a startling and even frightening revelation. I don't know if you're reading the other posts here, but just in case you missed it, my subject matter of my novel is childhood abuse--a story told from the point of view of the 12 year old child in third person. If you're still interested, let me know and I'll contact you through your site. The Best, jd
