Is there a demand for an affordable, professional editor/proofreading service? Or do most of you do it yourself or through alpha/beta readers?"

There probably is a demand among writers who don't have a lot of writer community around them, so someone who can afford to advertise with publishers, etc, could probably pick up some business.

I know. I'm leaning toward traditional, though I may choose a small press if they'll have me, rather than a big company.

I love the pencil trivia!!

Victoria wrote: "What would be labeled as a contemporary book?"

A book that is set within the last ten to twenty years, generally. Authors that are currently writing books set in the present day, in other words.
So, fiction, thrillers, mysteries, romance, and so on.

A couple other indie authors that weren't on Sarah Grace's list are
Elisabeth Grace Foley (western, mystery)
And
Erika Mathews (fantasy, etc)

Hahahaha!! :)

Sarah Grace...do we need to post links to our reviews or ratings as we finish each book?

Not sure if this is going to shape up this way in the end, but here's a stab at what I'm considering:

Classic: The Circular Staircase

Fantasy: The Trumpet of the Swan

Contemporary: Hope Harbor

Indie: The Ranch Next Door and Other Stories

Non-fiction: What to Do When You Don't Know What to Do

1901-2000: (So many in this category! Maybe...) A Lady Unrivaled

1801-1900: A Haven on Orchard Lane

1701-1800: Burning Sky

1601-1700: A Place in His Heart

1501-1600: ?

I joined earlier today but didn't have time ....buying a house. :)

I'm Hannah, and I work more than I read, but somehow I've still managed to read almost 150 books this year! I work in the accounting department at a Christian nonprofit, teach music, and work a day or two a week at a bookstore. I also write books...though nothing is published yet.

Yes, emojis work on GR! I ❤️📚!!
