 I have a huge old style satellite/radar dish in my back yard. Do people still buy these or even just come get? it is on a pole, that is anchored in the ground and would need to be lifted and moved, but I would like it gone... Keep it Because you can use your Microwave and convert it into a Ham radio and use that dish to talk accross the world. |

Anchored Assurance: Bestseller, Blockbuster Or Both?
Picture the blurb in the movie opening for Anchored Assurance, a storm in full sway, thunder and lightning, then a deep masculine voice saying:
“Things were dead calm…until the storm came. Who do you have surrounding you in troubled times?
Is your faith strong enough to withstand when testing times come? ... First, the letter came, and then the disappearance and finally the tragedy. How would they make it through the testing times, and how deep was their trust in God?”
What makes a best seller, blockbuster or both? Creativity, uniqueness, luck, public opinion,
positive reviews, inclusion in the top 10 list or money? Novels that you just have to finish and draws you into the storyline would be top of my list. Being an ardent fan of fiction novels and movies of the romantic/mystery/thriller genre, I personally believe a bestseller or blockbuster has to leave me thoroughly entertained, laughing, guessing or hiding behind my cushion or at least have my heart in my mouth, well that's just me, maybe the ‘experts' are looking for something else that's not immediately obvious to the discerning movie goer or novel reader!
Does the size of the novel determine it's bestseller/blockbuster status? Or, are books having
similarity in storylines, what Hollywood is looking for? The fact remains that bestsellers and or blockbusters should provide escapism for the customer whilst retaining an element of reality. You know it's fantasy, however, you can totally relate as you see the ‘reality' through the protagonist's eyes.
Anchored Assurance is such a book, as stated by one reviewer:
“The style of writing that the author employs serves to increase the impact of events described. Although the central theme of the text is religion, the development of the plot is not limited by this factor. The reader is able to identify with and relate to many facets of the characters' personalities, to the extent in a lot of instances, the fact that the protagonists are Christians is forgotten. The author succeeds in making the characters believable to the reader, making the text accessible to all.”
Other comments confirm the best seller/blockbuster potential of Anchored Assurance, see below:
"I enjoyed the story line so much I couldn't put the book down, it was very good!"
"I was captivated and finished it before going to bed. It was enjoyable and interesting to read
and had a good storyline."
If that's not sufficient to meet the criteria of a best seller or blockbuster, the author has
since 2007 been keen to raise money for charity, mainly World Vision, Release International, and now most recently Smile of a child and Rescue Life, through the sale of her novel. A £1 per every copy sold goes to charity, imagine how much could be
raised by a £100,000, £200,000, £1,000,000 copies or more and all donations are
gift aided!
In my opinion, Anchored Assurance comes tops in title, story line, uniqueness, perfectly blending fiction, thriller, mystery, humour and tragedy with the right dose of reality. Is it material for a bestseller, blockbuster or both, you decide? Remember, your decision today to purchase will have a twofold effect, pleasure for you and much needed assistance to the aforementioned charities.
Anchored Assurance: Bestseller, Blockbuster or Both? You decide.
