I write dark fantasy, horror and science fiction. I've put up my first book: a sequence of interlinked novellas in a Lovecraftian universe, with the next installment on the way.Currently I'm working on a sword-and-planet novel set in the same multiverse, that draws from the likes of Henry Kuttner, Leigh Brackett, and John Carter of Mars, along with the Dying Earth genre of Gene Wolfe and Jack Vance.
I've been concentrating on the actual writing, but I need to do more to get some more traction for my first novel and my other work. I'm hoping to make some connections with other talented folks.
Hi, I'm Laurel and I write children's fiction (9 to 12 year olds) and a little adult fiction. Feeling a bit shy and amazed by this huge GoodReads group. Let me know if I accidentally break any rules. Thanks to the organizers for setting this up--It's amazing! I like to read middle grade books :) THIS JOURNAL BELONGS TO RATCHET by Nancy Cavanaugh, and A SNICKER OF MAGIC by Natalie Lloyd and I LIVED ON BUTTERFLY HILL by Marjorie Agosin are recent favorites. Other favorite books: epics like Patrick O'Brian's Jack Aubrey or M.M. Kaye's novels and stylish fiction like P.G. Wodehouse or Dorothy Dunnett's Lymond Chronicles. I like humor and don't mind complicated. Mostly I like to hear what my friends are reading and can't put down.
Hello Robert, Laurel and Cheryl welcome to the group!
Welcome to the group Robert, Laurel, and Cheryl!
Hello, to the ether versions of yourselves—hope to get to know some of the real versions of you soon. I’m José Anastasis the author of the recently self-published eBook “Star Invasions.” The obvious genre to put "Star Invasions" in would be Sci-Fi; yet, "Star Invasions" is so much more. Even it's: "An edgy, mysterious Sci-Fi adventure with non-stop action..." —DOES NOT do it justice as a description. The actual story narrative crosses into many genres, including Political Fiction, Historical Fiction, Romance, Suspense, Mystery, & others. Possibly the best concise critique thus far is; “Star Invasions” inspired one anonymous reader to evaluate this new literary work in this fashion: “Mysterious, captivating and suspenseful. I thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end. Wonderful and magical story!”
Hi, my name is Stephen Scarcliffe. I am an aspiring Scottish Crime Fiction author and have just recently started using Goodreads as a means of networking and building connections. I am currently working towards the eventual publication of my first novel Pure Angst and have just recently released a short story Charlie, which is available for review if anyone is interested. If anyone want's to know more don't hesitate to drop me a line. Also, my author website is now live at www.stephenscarcliffe.co.uk. Cheers for now!
HI Tana, I joined the group a couple months ago (maybe six weeks?) My book, Luck is Just the Beginning, was released by Floricanto Press late last year (Nov 2015) and has been gettting good reveiws. The ebook had to be reformatted and is good and ready to go! The genres are multicultural fiction (ethnic) and historical fiction. How do I go about getting it reveiwed? I will sign up on ARR program but let me know if there is anything else I need to do. BTW, I'll be interviewed on NPR in Sacramento, CA next week on Insight, a popular daily show if you want to listen on the web: http://www.capradio.org/news/insightLet me know! Cheers, Celeste Leon. I am a good reads author and my website attached to my blog is www.celesteleon.com

Hi, I'm Bobbi Romans. I write a little bit of everything. Paranormal Romance, contemporary, cross-genre, IR... whatever the characters tell me!Um, I wrote the Swamp Magic Series (meet a new breed of hero) White Tiger Series, I have 27 titles out. A little something for different moods. I also run Bobbi's Book Blurbs, Teasers & Tag Lines.
Raised in VA but am a Floridian now for a long time. (thus where the ideas for the Swamp Magic Series originated.)
One of my latest releases, Hansel & Gretel-Twisted was a riot to write. Truly had fun.
I have a huge family, have married two couples and been on a talk show and still fail to keep the pool blue through the summer. (huge pain in the a$$)
:) Bobbi

The audio version just came out last year, as I heard from long distance truckers how important audio editions can be.

Hello! I'm Caroline. Currently I have two novellas published in two anthologies (Propose to Me and Second Chance For Love). My real passion is teen fiction though. It's what I enjoy reading and writing. I've got a paranormal teen book that's going on 3 years in the works. I'm also a book cover designer, and I design author promo materials like bookmarks. I was even a finalist in 3 categories in the 2015 EPIC Ariana Ebook Cover awards.
You can find me online at www.carolineandrus.com
You can search me on FB and Twitter as well to check out my work.
As for reading material, I like YA best. Richelle Mead is my favorite author, but I like a lot of different books targeted to teens (and some targeting adults, though not as frequently.)
