And I'd hate to have all my hard work be slaughtered by some nutcase who'll ruin my rating. <br /><br />Congrats on another book coming out. Now that my schedule has finally slowed down (who knew the beginning of school would take two months) I'll finally be able to get at the computer with a dedicated schedule again.

I was using strictly to record my books but the interaction between rogue readers with a mean spirit and wounded writers has become too weird for me. Anyway, sounds like a feature that could be useful. I have used the preview sample feature on my Kindle before.
