Hi everyone! My name is Autumn. I am a new reviewer and bookstagrammer (@the_bookish_raven) and am hoping to join the community here on GoodReads! I love fantasy, fairytales, sci-fi, YA, romance, etc. I do not have very many bookish friends so I hope to make some by joining this group!

Hey, I’m Jody. I’m a voracious audiobook consumer, fiction and non-fiction. Some of my favorites are Kristin Hannah, Brené Brown, and now Susan Cain. I particularly enjoy books read by the author. I used to read “real” books, but when I have extra time, I usually focus on writing, usually late at night (thank goodness for dimly lighted screens). I like to write poetry and short stories, and recently published a book about the messages we tell ourselves about money and finances, and how that plays out in the quality of our lives. I wrote it mainly so my son has a bit of me with him forever, but my big dream is that the book will open real, authentic conversations in book clubs, mastermind groups, and small group discussions about self-help, mindset, work, and purpose in life. If anyone wants to drum up discussion on self-publishing, or doing audiobooks, let me know! I’ve had some great mentors, but would love to soak up information from anyone who has been around the blocks a couple times!!

Dear friends, I have been busy making ultra mini video trailers on tips for writing a book. These are succinct and practical based on what I learned along the way. It's called AUTHORSHIP & can be found on Instagram/ FB.Monique lol

Hello, My name is Skyy and I'm from Waco, TX (home of Fixer Upper). I have fallen in love with reading again after getting distracted with starting a career and a family. I've really enjoyed getting back to reading and I'm excited to discover new reads in this group. I'm open to book recommendations and would love to review books!
Happy reading!
Hello! My name’s Yonnie Garber. I’m an Indie author with my first YA novel, “CLASH OF THE TOTEMS: and the Lost Magaecians” now on Amazon (in paperback and on Kindle). Although I’ve been on Goodreads for a little while now, I’m still navigating its workings and clapping my hands on finding this group! Thanks for having me! I’m juggling writing novels with marketing them which is a totally new concept for me. Any and all advice will be welcome!
OMG, Yonnie! Welcome, congrats on your book, and understand that you are not alone. Thank goodness for groups like this to bring authors and readers together. Most readers don’t understand how an author has ripped his heart and soul open to birth a book. Then, he must walk miles and miles to introduce this baby to the world! I wish you all the best of luck and keep in touch with your journey.

I live on the edge of the world. In Tasmania. A few years ago, I called myself a dentist.
Then I had a stroke.
Then I decided to rehabilitate myself by running a marathon.
Then I decided to write.
Run Around the Block
Hey Alan, any chance you will put this in audiobook? I would love for my dad who had a stroke to listen to it. I’d love to give him inspiration!
Jody,I don't know anything about audiobooks.
I know of one lady reading it to her mother. I know they are both enjoying the process. They are enjoying the time they spend together and hopefully the book. And I hope they are learning something.
Hi, I’m Kelly. I am new to Goodreads and recently released my first book in a YA Cozy Mystery series. While I am hoping to increase my reader base, I am also excited to get great recommendations and engage in some conversation about fun and enticing stories. Asbury High and the Thief's Gamble
I also love all book recommendations---as does my newborn son😊
Thanks and Happy Reading!

Hi!I am new to Goodreads, my name is Manu and I am from Austria. Ijust started with writing german reviews- but I do read in english as well. And I want to write my reviews based on either the english or german Version of a Book.
I think it may sometimes help to read a german review just to know if you are interested in the book when it finally hits the shelves in Germany/Austria/Switzerland. I love reading YA and fantasy!
Welcome to the group Skye, Ivette, and Manu!

Hi! I blog book reviews at notyouraveragereaderblog.wordpress.com. I created (not your) Average Reader solely for book reviews and reading related content. My reading tastes are pretty eclectic and include personal choices from libraries (I belong to three), books chosen by either of the two book clubs I belong to and books for review from publishers and authors. I really heavily on Goodreads for organization and work diligently to support authors by sharing my reviews on this website, Goodreads, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Hello Everyone, My name is Rick Chromey, and I have written over a dozen books educating people everything from how to lead in the boardroom to the classroom. I love history, documentary, biographies, I am fascinated by people. My recent work that is now an eBook, (and if you want the ePub to read and possibly even review I am happy to give it!) will be in print on May 26, 2020, called GenTech: An American Story of Technology, Change and Who We Really Are (Since 1900) is a great historical romp - and if you think we are generations based on when we are born, then you might want to reconsider. My argument is that our generation should be based on the technology we consume during our "coming of age" years, between 10 and 25. This is a really amazing work and I hope you will like it! We are actively getting ready to set off a campaign too on Amazon with a 99 cent sale - so message me for that too if you would like information. We are doing all the things we think we need to do, to get the attention the book deserves. Fifteen years in the creation... yep. I look forward to hearing what you are working on and what I can read and review. I love reviewing work as I know the love and time that goes into the writing and love to honor that in kind. Talk soon!
Hello to Everyone,This is my first time as a Goodreads member, and I'm looking forward to connecting with as many book lovers as I can.
After 9 years at the keyboard (on and off), I am about to release my first historical fiction novel. Book One of a 2-book set is due for release 20 June, 2020 and my dream, as anew writer, is to have a following for my work .... don't we all!!
Watch for me, and I look forward to meeting with you among the pages.
Cheers,
Liam

Hi! My name is Belinda I'm just starting out as a self-published author, already have some stuff written on Inkitt, Wattpad and Tapas, reaching a little over eighteen thousand reads across all platforms.
I still have a lot to learn as a writer, teaching myself how to write and pursuing Uni this year.

A pleasure to get to know you all! :)

Hi Goodreads Family,I am excited to be joining the group. I am new to everything as a new author and learning as I go.
I started this journey just wanting to give back and be a blessing. I want to help as many people as I can with some of life's challenges.
I had to find a way to share my experiences and inside knowledge in the mortgage industry. Give the public access to me as a mortgage underwriter & processing manager to ask questions. I decided to start with a book and eventually I will start a YouTube channel where I can share a lot of tips.
Please if I do anything wrong let me know.
Looking forward to the next chapter of my life.
Sincerely,
Kassondra
