Hi there! I'm Shelby! I am getting ready to publish my first book. Thriller/Suspense. Hello fellow writers and readers! :)
Hi there, If you're looking for some vampire romance Guildhall Guardian: Thamesian #1
Shelby, what's the title of your book? :)
Hello fellow writers and readers! My name is Shelby K. Morrison and I just finished my debut novel, Shattered. It is a thriller/mystery with a touch of sci-fi. Currently searching for ARC reviewers and plan to publish on May 3rd. Excited to be here! :)
Hello everyone.Thanks for letting me join. I'm a newly published author (as in 10 days ago)and for the past week I've been chatting with fellow authors, readers and book fans alike.
In my status, I mentioned I like helping other authors with reviews. I thought I'd mention it here as that seems to be a good topic of discussion. If anyone wants me to review a book, and doesn't mind returning the favour, send me a message.
Otherwise, hello everyone. I look forward to being part of the group.
HelloMy first book, Sea of Dreams : A Book of Beginnings is out in ebook and, in shortly, as real, old-fashioned paperback!
My interests are in speculative fiction, particularly when it's grounded in present-day reality. It doesn't have to be hard scifi though. As you can see from my book, I am interested in myth and 'realistic fantasy' (my newly coined genre).
Looking forward to meeting you.
Hi, My name is Dave and I just started writing children's books for Kindle. Ive never written ebooks before, so this is kind of an experiment to see if I can better my craft as I go along.
I like to read, mystery, adventure, and history, but am up for reading/reviewing just about any book if someone needs the review.
Im still new here so trying to figure out how things work.
Hello everyone,My name is David G. Johnson and I am an author but also an avid reader. My genres are faith-based Fantasy and Sci-Fi (as far as what I write), and I am a huge fan of most all Speculative Fiction. I have a blog site I have recently launched about Speculative Fiction, which can be found at www.otherworldwindows.blogspot.com and I hope to be posting some reviews and maybe some author interviews on there are part of what that blog offers.
My debut novels just hit the market in February. They are the first two books in my Chadash Chronicles series, Fool's Errand (book 1) and Mystic's Mayhem (book 2). Paryn's Gold (book 3) is still in the process of editing and I am deciding whether or not I will publish that one via the same publisher or not.
I look forward to being a part of this group, meeting other Fantasy/Sci-Fi authors, interacting with bloggers and reviewers, and having a chance to talk about upcoming projects as they arise.
My family and I normally live in Asia, so am not able to physically promote my books in the States save for once every two to three years. This is why reviewers and online sites are important.
Will look around for the proper posts, but anyone willing to do a read/review of my books, I will be happy to send a free electronic copy in exchange for an honest review (not necessarily a favorable one, just an honest one). I have them available in PDF, epub and mobi format, so you can just message me if Fantasy is your thing and I will get them to you.
Blessings,
David G. Johnson
Hi David, welcome to the group!

Hi Jackie, Mods & Members!I just joined and wanted to say Hi. This looks like a very active and organized group! I'm an avid reader and a self-published author, and look forward to participating. I'll be browsing and 'lurking' for a while on the boards until I learn my way around all the topics and categories. Cheers!
Hi! I just joined, I haven't found my way around yet - I followed my good friend and amazing illustrator Isis Sousa here.I currently have two books out and a third due in a matter of weeks. The books are epic fantasy adventure, with a subtle theme of atheism and pragmatism.
I'd love to do interviews or guest blog posts, and I love reading and talking about books almost as much as writing them!

Hi, I'm Noel Coughlan. I am Irish. I write epic fantasy and science fiction. I have published one book A Bright Power Rising, and I am currently working on the sequel. I also write short stories.
Welcome to the group!
Hi everyone!My names Kyle Scott. I'm a horror author and something of a genre obsessive. Aside from writing horror fiction, I run my own blog - reviewing and editorialize on all thing horror - called The Horror Hotel.
Looking forward to getting to know the group. I always find it extremely inspiring discussing the genre with like-minded fans, as there are few communities more caring, intelligent and passionate than those which horror inspires.
Now for some influences...
From a literary standpoint, my work is my play. The authors I read are both a source of inspiration and a passion that I really can;t get enough of.
I could list many, but to give an idea of my influences, here's a small list :
Richard Laymon
Brian Keene
Jeff Strand
Blake Crouch
Jack Kilborn
Edward Lee
Joe Hill
J F Gonzalez
My first release is called CONSUMED VOLUME 1, and is firmly fixed in the horror genre, although it does contain a lot of black humor and social satire.
Anyway, hope you're all well, and.....hello!
Kyle
Hi, happy to be part of the group. I've written three crime novels, a steampunk YA, a collection of historical/erotic romance stories and a bunch of short stories across genres. My first two novels, Bone Machines and Kali's Kiss, are out as commercial audiobooks, but with my YA steampunk novel, The Mechanikals, I've gone down the self-publishing route with Kindle Direct - I am seeking reviewers and also beta readers for stuff I'm working on now.

Hi all! I'm Elizabeth Einspanier, and I've been writing for years. I have a short story and a self-published novella under my belt, and I'm always eager for reviews.
Welcome David and Elizabet! Glad to have you! :)
David and Elizabeth, you're in the right place. Welcome!
Hello,I'm Mandy and I'm a book addict.
I'd like to be friends with anyone that will read some of my reviews (we can still be friends even if you don't). I tend to read and comment or like on most of the reviews that show up in my newsfeed of friends. So I will read your reviews as well.
I read a lot of ARC's that I get from various places. (romance junkies, netgalley, edelweiss, read for review programs...) If you would like me to read and review your book send me a message and we'll see if I'm interested and have time.
Hey guys,I'm Mack (pen name), and I've only been goodreads for about a month. I've been looking for cool groups to join and found this one, which seems awesome.
I'm an addicted speed-reader and I enjoy writing reviews for just about everything, especially indie stuff. Glad to be here.
Hello, This is Lucie. I originally joined Goodreads to promote my first book which is coming out in a month. But then I started writing reviews, usually when I notice a book I read in the past.
It is fun, remembering and writing the reviews. Mind you, because until I started writing, I read about a book per week, it would take me a life time to review even half.
SO I have no system, it is all impulsive.
I still work full time as a doctor and with the marketing of my book A Woman with (no) Strings Attached starting soon, I have not much time to read.
Reading Goldfinch. I could not get into it, but I like it.

Hi everyone,I'm Jacqui, I have been writing for years and published my first novel, Darkness Forbidden, in 2012 with the sequel due for release later this year. I was once an avid reader, though writing, publishing, editing, and running round after an active 2 year old restrict me from reading as much as I used to. I also work as a freelance copy-editor and proofreader.
Looking forward to being a part of the group :)
Ciao all!I'm Michael, and I am an award-winning author of dark fiction currently in the middle of a series based on el chupacabra. Go goat-sucker!

I think the Goodreads giveaway has great potential. Some times it works but it can Fizzle :o)
