[La Tonya]

Welcome Diana. Will enjoy getting to know you.

[Patricia]

Hi Diana. I like your list of authors, although I have to admit that I haven't read Baldacci yet.

[Kelly]

Welcome Diana!!

[Gopal]

Hi Diana,

Welcome to the group.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

Welcome.

[Mikaela*Bookworm*]

I am from Virginia, born and raised. I have been married almost 7 years to my high school sweetheart. I am 25 years old, and have two little boys(3 and 4 years old) that are my world. I read every spare minute I have. My favorite author is Stephen King. I love anything with a good scare, or mystery.

[Gopal]

Welcome Mikaela

[Patricia]

Hi Mikaela

[K.L.]

Hey there Mikaela, King is a favorite of mine as well, though from time to time he can get a bit wordy. I swear he always says when he finishes a first draft he then cuts it down 10%, which blows my mind when I think of how long some of his works are.

Hi Mikaela,

welcome to the group

[E.]

Hi Mikaela, I'm currently re-reading Gerald's Game (after 20+ years) for a Stephen King group BOTM. Still creepy after all these years. He's a favorite of mine also.

[Paula]

Hi Mikaela, welcome to the group. Enjoy! I like reading Stephen King too.

[Kelly]

Welcome Mikaela!

[La Tonya]

Welcome to the group Mikaela. Enjoy the group.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

Hi, welcome.

[Dawn]

I had unexpected house guests pile in on me for 3 LONG days and am just now able to focus on something other than the mess they left behind. OMG!!!!!

Anyway, hello to all our new members; Maxine, Pat, Rob, Michael, Jennifer, Lara, Antoinette, Roger Juan, Stephanie, K.L., Ana Angelica, Yas,Diana and Mikaela.

Welcome to all of you and I hope you enjoy the group.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

Hi Dawn. Just thought I let you know several of us from the group will be dropping by for a couple of weeks....

[Janet , Moderator]

Yeah, Dawn, be ready!! ;-)

[Dawn]

Ha, Ha, Ha!!! At least you are giving me a heads up! They just rang my doorbell and had their 2 small children with them.

Come on over; I will get everything ready for you guys. I love sleep overs if I know I am having one.

[Brenda]

Dawn, should we bring you a book or a bottle of wine?

I agree with you. He does get wordy at times. I couldn't imagine reading a first draft. I am currently reading Doctor Sleep and just finished The Shining (second go round). Next on the list is IT again.

[Mikaela*Bookworm*]

Thanks everyone!

I really enjoyed Gerald's Game as well. I haven't had the chance to read The Stand yet, but it just came in the mail today. After I finish Doctor Sleep and IT (second go round) I am going to start on The Stand.

I have to say that I really was surprised how much I enjoyed Dr. Sleep. To return to a familiar world and yet flip the script the way he did after 30 years. King is a master.

[Skye]

Hi Mickaela: welcome

I really enjoyed his book "On Writing" Beginning in high school, he wrote some works that got him into some trouble. I was surprised to read that he was drinking heavily while writing some of his early books. Then...the accident.

[David]

I can't keep up with this thread. Too many new names to mention, so to avoid the risk of leaving anyone out, here's a generic 'Hi' to all new members. Join in and enjoy.

[David]

Not too bad, Aaron, thanks. Yourself?

I have a full days writing planned today, and just taking a ten minute break on here.

[David]

I self publish, Aaron. You can check out my titles here: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show...

One thriller of psychological persuasion, with another in the planning stage. And four fantasy titles, currently writing the fifth.

[David]

It is Aaron, I only wish I'd done it years earlier. Having said that, my writing has improved with age.

Is your sister a member of this group?

[David]

I see she's doing well there, with a good number of reviews.

[Brenda]

I see that storm is going to stay south of me, but I'll be thinking of you. Try to stay inside and read if it's BAD!

[Skye]

I like that genre, too, Aaron.

[Erik]

Im the author of the book

[Jenni]

Hi, my name is Jenni Boyd, I live in Australia, I have four published books, and hope to release #5 soon.

I would like to ask a question, of other authors, hopefully it is okay to do so on this post. What are your thoughts on Smashwords, is it true their focus is more on Romance & Fantasy?

[Mike (the Paladin)]

[Alan]

Good morning!

I am Alan and I live in a small town in east Texas with my wife, teenage daughter and my basset hound. Besides reading I enjoy fishing, a good cup of coffee, cooking and BBQ.

It's great to be part of a group that shares the same love of reading that I do.
