Joshua Grant | 38 comments Hello there word wizards! That’s right, I’m talking to you oh great and powerful author. Over the past year, I’ve been creating a community of support for people just like you. I’ve designed a space where you can get honest reviews and a connection to readers. On my site Diabolic Shrimp, I buy a book each week from our list of authors, which I eventually review on Amazon and Goodreads. I also buy a book each month to give away to our readers, hopefully connecting that author with a brand new reader. It’s all free to join and I don’t hassle you with a bunch of e-mails or anything. If this is a tool you think might be useful, check it out at www.diabolicshrimp.com. I hope to see you there!

Robin (robingregory) | 30 comments Hi Joshua,
I love your website. It's beautifully designed, easy to navigate. I also admire your commitment to charities. Does the 10% donation come from a review fee?
It looks like you read/review fantasy. Are you interested at all in magical realism? If yes, what MR books have you enjoyed?

Hey Robin! Thanks for the kind words! I don't have any fees on my website. I set out to make a free space where authors can get support. My 10 percent comes from the sales of my personal books. I'm actually really enjoying the review process since it allows me to branch out to some new genres I normally wouldn't read. It's been a real eye opener and I've had a lot of fun with it. Not sure if I've read any magical realism yet, but I love all things fantasy and sci fi so I'm sure I'd enjoy it! :)

Erica Graham (erica_graham) | 3 comments This is a great website! Fun newsletters too. :)

Joshua, when I originally submitted my information, my Facebook page was my main page at the time. I have developed a website since then and keep meaning to ask if it could be updated on your site? The webpage is talkingtalesbooks.com
