Lita Marson Hi, my name is Lita Marson. I am from Latvia, a country in the Baltic region of Northern Europe.. And I want to tell you my story, because I am searching for help in any possible ways.
My family lives in a municipal building with a black mold. I want to buy some little apartment without such problem, because black mold can cause serious issues to our health. Latvia is not a very prosperous country. Here we have some opportunities for hard work, but even many years of hard working don`t give us a chance to buy an apartment.
My mother is 80 years old, she is a retired lady. My father passed away 10 years ago. For many years he was disabled and bedridden. So our family is not wealthy and we don`t have wide range of options. One of my sisters has epilepsy for 30 years, another sister has serious heart issues.
Also my sister is allergic to the most black mold cleaners and removers.
I decided to sell my books on Amazon to earn money that way and to help my family. I have ten books published on Amazon in different genres, both in printed and electronic format.
I don`t ask for money, grants or other finansial support. My idea is to spread the information about my story and my books among kindhearted and empathic people who are willing to help me, who would buy my books. Every reader is a big value for me. Here is a link to my profile on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/stores/Lita-Ma...

message 5059: by Bethanie (new)

Bethanie Hi there! I'm teacher Bethanie I’ve been working on something I’m really excited about and wanted to share it here. After years of teaching and creating resources for parents and teachers, I just finished a new writing workbook for 2nd graders (or kids around that level).
I love helping kids—especially those who struggle—become confident writers who actually enjoy writing. This workbook even comes with a little Parent Handbook to make things easier for you. It’s perfect for beginners or kids who just need a little extra practice.
If you’re curious or know someone who might want it, let me know! I’d be happy to send over the PDF. Writing should be fun, and I’d love to help make it that way for more kids. 😊

kaleigh (semi hiatus because reading slump…) Hi everyone,

My name is Kaleigh and I've been an avid reader since the year of 2021! I enjoy reading all genres of YA books, thrillers, fantasy/pnr, romance, and historical fiction. I'm fairly new to the ARC side of reading, but I enjoy it so far! Physical books are my favorite thing due to me being huge on annotating, and I'm proud to say I won my first every Goodreads giveaway physical copy over the past week🤣I'm not quite sure what else to add because if I were to talk any more about books, this messsage would go on forever.

Happy reading!

Scott Gordon Hi All

I'm Scott Gordon, author and avid reader. Been on Goodreads for less than a year and am working at becoming more active here--lots of starts and stops. I'll read anything well written, but recently I've been gravitating toward humorous literary novels.

My debut novel, Head Fake, is on Giveaway for the next couple of days. It was 'Named to Kirkus Reviews' Best Books of 2024."

Would love to connect with authors and readers.

message 5073: by Damsel in Delight (last edited Mar 14, 2025 05:19AM) (new)

Damsel in Delight Hi!
I’m Lottie, a YA reader and blogger who has just started this year and would love to meet more people and get more book recs! I have a book review blog and website called Damsel in Delight where I review YA, mostly fantasy, sci-fi and dystopian.
All my reviews have expansive content warnings because I really hate it when I stumble across something triggering that is unwarned in books! I also have romance and violence ratings that are on every review so people always know what they are picking up.
I’m also on NetGalley and Book Sirens for ARCs but also would love to receive them separately on places like Bookfunnel if authors want me to review them! I also frequently review books on Goodreads and Storygraph (my personal favourite because I can add content warnings!)

message 5076: by AndaReadsTooMuch (new)

AndaReadsTooMuch Hi all! I am a lifetime reader and lover of books. Reading is my favorite hobby and how I carve out time for myself. I’ve just started to get into writing reviews of what I read and this year’s motto/theme is life is too short to read bad books! I’ve also recently joined Netgalley and BookSirens to read and review ARCs which has been super fun! I’m a mom with two kids (three if you count my husband) and the world’s most stubborn dog and cat, along with a very energetic hamster named Steve. I hope I can meet new friends and followers, and well, read more good books!

Geoffrey Jonas Hello everyone.

I am a first time author from Northern Canada. My book 'Being Broken' was only recently published a couple of weeks ago. It is a memoir about childhood trauma and abuse my sister and I had to go through which ultimately ended with her death from fentanyl poisoning.

This is all new to me so I'm just connecting to the community.

Thank you!

message 5082: by Ostap (new)

Ostap Vyhovskyi Hi everyone, I’m Ostap 👋

I’m 25 years old, a Christian, and currently serving in the Ukrainian military, where I work as a cook. It’s been three years of service, and in my free time, I’ve been searching for something meaningful and creative to focus on — that’s how I discovered the world of children’s books.

Before the war, I worked as a financial advisor. Now, writing brings me peace, purpose, and hope.
As a beginner in publishing, I’m still learning and growing — so I’d truly appreciate any honest feedback you’re willing to share on my books.

Please don’t judge too harshly — but do be honest 🙂
Thank you for reading and supporting!
— Ostap 🙏

Linda Sanchez Hi everyone!
I'm Linda, and I’m really glad to be here. I’m an author and the founder of Legacy & Light Publishing. I recently released two books—my memoir Lost & Found: The Journey of Socorro, and a novel titled Elena’s Quiet Revival. Both are deeply personal projects that explore themes like identity, healing, motherhood, and second chances.

As someone who was adopted from Mexico and later reconnected with parts of my story I never knew, I’ve found writing to be a powerful way to process, reflect, and hopefully encourage others through shared experiences.

I’m looking forward to connecting with fellow writers, creatives, and storytellers in this group. Feel free to say hi or share what you’re working on—I’d love to hear about it and cheer you on!

Warmly,
Linda

Yani Doodle Hey everyone!

I'm Yani, and I’m really happy to be here.
I’m an indie author just getting started. I try to create fun and joyful screen-free time, so my books are activity books, journals, and planners.

Right now, I have a few books out — all about mindfulness, stress-free living, and adding a little fun to everyday life.

I’m looking forward to connecting with other authors and readers and learning as I go!

If you’re into journaling, planners, or just love creative books, I’d love to chat.

Thanks for having me!

Veronica Sinclair Hi everyone —

We’re reaching out to a select group of readers from across Goodreads with something we believe you’ll connect with on a deeper level.

How I Almost Ruled the World is a newly launching political fiction novel that explores how systems slowly erode — not through chaos, but through quiet consent. It’s unsettling, timely, and surprisingly hopeful. The kind of story that doesn’t just entertain — it lingers.
We’re offering early digital access to a limited number of readers ahead of the official release.

This 60-second trailer is already giving people chills — and it’s just the beginning → https://pokeyquillpublishing.com

We’ve had a lot of interest in early copies, so we’re keeping things simple — just send us an email at the address below to be considered:
📩 launch@pokeyquillpublishing.com

Because once you see the truth… you can’t unsee it.
