It will probably take a while to get through all these posts so don't feel pressured to check out my novel. Also I know how much of a struggle promoting is. It took me a while of constant promoting to even hit the first milestone! so I don't think you come off as desperate at all, we got to help each other hit our milestones! so I'll be happy to check out your novel and let you know what I think 
Also my novel is a fantasy based in some magic world where you follow the main character on his journey to discover his fate and he has to choose who he can trust.
