It serves no purpose whatsoever, except to make us wonder why a reader left an 'ok' ranking while another decided we might be 'poor'. I'd at least like to know the basis of their decision. I haven't purchased any of my own books, but I know once you purchase A book on fictionwise, it goes into your record, and you cannot rank the book again. At least it keeps people honest in that respect. All I know is that rankings do impress people. My first novel rated a four by the Romantic Times magazine, which I considered quite good, but someone on Fictionwise decided it was poor and I never got another ranking on the site after that. I doubt I got many sales either. People pay attention and make decisions based on what other people think. Sad but true. :)<BR/><BR/>Ginger<BR/>P.S.
