I'm new to this group, as well as to Goodreads. I'm doing both A-Z Title & A-Z Author. Those completed are starred. Because of time constraints & 2 months gone already, some books will be on both lists where applicable. It has been interesting just compiling the lists. Here's the Author list.

c. *Coulter, Ann [Guilty:]
d. Davidson, Diane Mott
e. Edgerton, Clyde

Okay, I'm probably going to bite off more than I can chew considering my writing projects and the release of my book "Rebekah Redeemed" (available on amazon), but I like this idea of A-Z authors as well a couple of other challenges in this group. I really like seeing what other people are reading. It helps me professionally and personally. I'll get working on my list and post it. I'm also doing the read unread books on my book shelf at home as well as the A-Z for titles.

Jumping in here for Jan 09-Dec 31 09. I'm also doing 50 books a year challenge and this one may guide it a bit:)
