The pro and cons, to be or not to be...
When wondering why and if I have to continue with this blog, I received an email like this one:
"Greetings and respect from a gay leatherman who finds your reviews truly excellent
Dear Signora Rolle,
I wish to express my sincere thank you and my profound respect for your wonderful and discerning reviews. I use your reviews to select what M/M fiction I will like best and you never, ever let me down.
You provide a wonderful service, taking your passion for M/M fiction and sharing it primarily wih female readers but also with gay men.
I also love the beautiful male images which you have collected.
You are a wonderful person, a wonderful and expressive writer. I both admire and respect you. Thank you so very much."
I received this email weeks ago, and also in a moment when I was a bit down. Then I read it and decided there was a reason for doing what I'm doing. Then again yesterday I wondered again; maybe I should let other people doing that, other reviewers with more experience... why a straight woman should read and review gay romances? but now, when I will wonder again, I have the above letter to give me a reason to continue.
