I know it can be hard to find reviewers for self-published books. 

Here is a list I've compiled on my website of Blogs that review Spec Fic self-published books specifically.

Hope it helps all you wonderful indie writers.

Canada prepares for an Asian future
By Ayesha Bhatty Vancouver
View of Vancouver Nearly one in five of Vancouver's population is Chinese

Chinese immigrants have flocked to Canada's west coast and transformed Vancouver into Canada's very own Asian metropolis. The days of concern over the city being turned into 'Hongcouver' have gone. What does the future hold for Canada's Asian population?

Shoppers stroll casually past a Lamborghini store in Richmond's Aberdeen Centre - a major Asian mall in this once sleepy Vancouver suburb known for its farmland and fishing village.

Outside the shopping centre, people are queuing at the many Chinese restaurants. In the local supermarkets, butchers are picking live seafood out of fish tanks, chopping off the heads, then gutting and packaging them up under the watchful eye of customers, almost exclusively Chinese-Canadian.

Richmond is North America's most Asian city - 50% of residents here identify themselves as Chinese. But it's not just here that the Chinese community in British Columbia (BC) - some 407,000 strong - has left its mark. All across Vancouver, Chinese-Canadians have helped shape the local landscape.

Weekend success! It was nice having a real weekend for a change, and also doing something new and different from the routine during it. WHEE. I did really well anxiety-wise too! Hit some regular triggers (car related and social related) but got through them without any attacks and just some discomfort (that I think is probably perfectly normal for most people). Something unexpected - being in a new place didn't phase me at all for once. I didn't get dizzy or anything!

Yeah, things are not perfect, but I still feel like I'm hitting all these highs lately and things feel like they are actually improving. Still a long long long way to go but I feel like I am making progress and it's just.... exhilarating, honestly! It feels like it's building on itself too - like all these little successes are making me more confident and willing to try things that are tough for me. So I guess the "vicious circle" can run backwards and be a good thing too.

Andandand <3 Zack is awesome and I gotta thank him for carting me around and yapping with me and making everything wonderful.

Not bad for something done off the cuff.

Next up, the Solar Twilight with the jackal.

Cloudy all day but fairly warm, even with the wind- did a load of laundry and it dried in record time! Wrote the boring Sunday article, had massive holiday breakfast, listened to cars go around in circles (and am *still* listening, since Fox, in their infinite wisdom, has decided to show a Nastycar race instead of the usual Sunday cartoons), and removed a metric ton of weeds from the garden. Except for one grass that has decided to go to seed a month early this year, I’m staying ahead of them flowering and dropping seed. Now I am going to try and get one of this weeks articles done tonight, while being pushed out of my chair by two very stubborn cats.
