Please Introduce Yourself, Let's All Get To Know Each Other
Welcome to the group Sue! You sound like you are quite busy. I am also disabled and not wheelchair bound. I also read books for review which I just started doing this past winter. I only do a few a month and then I read for pleasure, not that it's not a pleasure to read the books for review. Writing isn't my strong suit.
Welcome to the group Michelle and Mark. And thanks for the introduction Sue although you have been here for a while.!!
Hi, Sue. Your "Welcome top the Family" URL is Surfin' Safari-The Beach Boys-1962: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FS7SU...

I know you have been a member quite a while, so thanks for your support.
I don't remember if I've ever seen Sue1958 around at all, Sean.
Mod
But good to re-introduce yourself....LOL
OK. I'll take your word for it since I have a notoriously lousy memory.
Thanks all, glad to be part of such a friendly group!

Hi Sue, great to see you in this group.
Sue, we've been together here so long, and it's nice to get to know you more! Thanks for writing an introduction!
Hi all, I'm Adam. Not much to say really but I live in the UK & am retired. I have just fulfilled a long time ambition to have a book published (though on amazon not with a publishing house). I'm just feeling my around at the moment but hope to settle into the group quickly.

Hello everyone! Glad I found this cool group. I love thrillers and grew up reading them. I write them now. About me: Married 18 years, six kids, deliver global training events, systems, and technology for Amazon, write books. I garden too. I was born and raised in a Scientology splinter cult, which I finally was able to leave when I was 17.
My favorite thriller writers: Robert Ludlum, Stephen King (he's not just horror), Dean Koontz, Matthew Reilly, Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, and Clive Cussler.

Why thank you. Subinita is a Bengali word and it means a very good girl and this name was chosen by my father. it pronounces like Soo-bee-nee-taa only not too much emphasis on the vowel sounds.
Hi everyone , I've recently joined goodreads , and as a thriller fan , this group sounds perfect so thankyou for having me .
I live in Devon in the UK , and for any Agatha Christie fans out there , she was born just down the road from where we live.
Looking forward to chatting with you all.

Welcome to the group Ian. Is it a museum where Agatha Christie was born?
Hi Paula , sadly her birthplace and family home has now been replaced by a block of flats , but her home later in life , Greenway , is now owned by the National Trust and is a visitable musuem. Its just down the road ,too. My dad worked their as a National Trust volunteer .
Hi Ian, well at least they saved one of her homes for a museum. Some day my husband and I wish to visit GB and that would be a must see for me.
Hi, Ian. Your "Welcome to the Family" URL is watchmojo.com's Top 10 Sci-Fi Television Series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1IOe...
Paula , you can't go wrong with a visit to "The English Riviera", and Greenway is a lovely house on the banks of the river Dart .
Welcome to Subinita and Ian. I hope you both will enjoy our little family!!
Mod
Yes I spent my youth growing up in Torquay, well Maidencombe, which was beautiful, now in Jersey, Channel Islands.

Howdy! I'm Cosmos, a high school student from North Carolina. I'm a huge horror/thriller/mystery fan and read one book after the other. I'm currently camping with my family.
Hi Cosmos, welcome to the group! Glad you found us. I also read one book after another, always have. Do you like Stephen King? That's my favorite author to read when I go camping, especially when we go camping in Maine.
Thanks for the welcome Lorrea, subinta and Sean.Sean , You must know the thatched pub on the way down to the beach at Maidencombe . I used to spend a lot of time when i was growing up at a cove near Maidencombe called Watcombe.

I am sue, married to Barrie for 34 years this year. We have 2 grown children who still live at home with us in the UK.
I am disabled [not wheelchair bound.....yet] and I am a care giver for my husband and daughter.
My free time is lived around reading a book, reviewing a book, accepting books, promoting books LOL
I've read to review since the 2008 and leave my reviews all over the place, on my blog, amazon.co.uk, .com and sometimes in other languages too. Bookstores or anywhere I am asked to really. I am quite obedient!
I stay at home a lot, so my window to the world is via my Internet and I have got to know and chatted to a few that are bookworms like myself.
I belong to just a few groups on Goodreads and run with a friend 1 facebook related group and 2 book related pages which can keep me busy. I love to help authors and feel I am giving something back for all the pleasure they bring me in reading their books.
Thats about it really
