What is a self-confident reader? A self confident reader is someone who is the master of their own tastes. A self confident reader does not need to follow the trend and only read what thousands have recommended. A self-confident reader decides what they like and they move the trends.

Is This Job 4 You?

Lipstick Traces by Kathlea Azzurra Rowland is exactly my type of emerging literature.  The characters have some smears around the edges like lipstick traces and the story is rough in parts, like a newly mined gem.  This novel awaits self-confident readers ready to absorb, appreciate and perhaps smear lipstick traces as they lick fingers to turn the pages.  In some respects Lipstick Traces seems as ‘chick lit’ which fits my most recent trend, but the lifelike characters and darkish theme puts it into the emerging literature category too.  (How does emerging chick lit sound?)

Unlike most novels offered by big publishers, Lipstick Traces has not been ‘laundered’ to remove any possibility of causing any reader offense, which conversely, only flushes away the book’s inner truth.  A truly self-confident reader though, finds the sometimes tart flavorings keep a read from being bland.

A few furthers note to ‘self-confident readers’.  I want you to bookmark this clickmylit.net site and offer your opinions.  Here is a literary mathematical equation: self-confident readers+self-published authors=a bright future for emerging literature+a healthy literary marketplace.

Beat Back Writer

Oprah started out as a self confident reader but it seems that from the dizzying height of her high ladder rung, she’s lost touch.  Was Oprah’s selection of ‘A Million Little Pieces’ really her own self confidence?  Millions of people bought it, read it, and not wanting to go against Oprah’s opinion, they said they really liked it.  Later though, when allegations emerged of the facts not being completely true, some readers I spoke to changed their minds. ‘I didn’t actually like the book’.  But because a supposedly self-confident reader, Oprah, had recommended it, the hype surrounded it and millions of people read a book that really wasn’t all that worth while.

I want real self-confident readers here stating their own self confident views.  I would like clickmylit.net to be what Oprah’s book club perhaps should’ve been.

We are certainly living in a time when confidence building is critical and when building confidence is most difficult. I found this book on building global confidence while panning through Amazon for literary gold nuggets.

Global Confidence Building: New Tools for Troubled Regions

I haven’t read it and I likely won’t. I’m linking to it to discuss a topic. Where is the global confidence that was supposedly being built? I don’t see the confidence building as actually having built confidence. Maybe that’s why the price of this book has dropped from $89 to $6.  During this troubled period when we lack global confidence, maybe we should start building confidence in ourselves instead.

Build up your Personal Self Confidence

Peak Confidence

People are not confident that they will still have a job next week. Many hold little confidence in whether the politicians are really trying to solve the problems, or just lining their pockets and filling their friends’ wallets with cash. The one person that you really need to have confidence in is yourself. Building your self confidence will get you through difficult times.

This post is just intended to be an inspirational boost for your confidence building but I’ll talk a bit more on the Global Confidence Building book I found. The book’s description begins with “After every major war, perverse problems and heady opportunities present themselves in strange and variable mixtures.” Really? But what shows over the longer term is that the truly ‘perverse’ part was the war itself and the ‘perverse’ and competent politicians that showed their utter lack of diplomatic skills by engaging a nation in the war. A war doesn’t ever build confidence, it destroys confidence and it only builds animosity. Peace is confidence building.
