Hi folks - I'm a bit hit or miss online theses day, but I try to keep where I can. Busy, busy!

/u/PaigeLChristie/

[Amelia]

I keep forgetting to log into Goodreads. Hello, I'm /u/AmeliaFaulkner - I know, very incognito!

I smoosh Urban Fantasy and romance together to make a glorious unmarketable mass of spec-fi. I won't touch you with the romance cooties unless you ask me to :D

/u/PaigeLChristie - stealth is not my super power

[Rosalyn]

Hi I'm /u/rosalynk I'm an indie author, first fantasy novel Melokai published in October. I mainly lurk, but looking to get more involved :)

[William]

Hi, All! I'm /u/plane-walker/ -- nice to be here!

[Dyrk]

Hello everyone, I can't remember if I've done this yet: I'm /u/UnDyrk

Hope you all are enjoying the holidays!

[Mauricio]

Hi! i'm BlackyUy in the reddits :D

I read quite a bit of comics, and used to read a bunch of books, but for some reason i fell off rythm for a while. This april i decided i wanted to go back to reading, and I'm kinda catching up on stuff i had missed

[Simon]

Hi! I'm /u/KvothesTemper on reddit.
Mostly a lurker on r/fantasy. :D
If you want, leave a friend request on Goodreads. Always good to know what other readers enjoy right now. :)

[J.W.]

Hello! I'm /u/AuthorAlden on Reddit. I comment occasionally, but mostly I lurk. I've been using Goodreads more lately, so I figured it was time to join the group! Feel free to friend me, as well.

[Nikkie]

Hi, I'm new to Reddit, u/garnetgirl1985, but for years have found myself lurking in the shadows reading posts. So I decided yesterday to finally join and now it's already getting completely out of control as I sign up for Goodreads pages with the aim to join in book clubs and discussions.

[Keegan]

Hello! I'm /u/Anakin_Groundcrawler and lurk in the /r/fantasy subreddit. Feel free to add me!

[Tim]

Hello everyone, I'm /u/Koldun31, and I've been on the subreddit for a while, and joined this group only recently.

[Chris]

G’day, username CapNitro here. More of a lurker on reddit since most good threads on the Fantasy sub have run their course by the time I wake up :-P

Hoping to find some good recommendations following this group!

[Lauregul]

Hey, I'm u/Lauregul and I'm lurking on the fantasy subreddit. I'm hoping to find even more good recommendations here.
Feel free to add me :D

[Michael]

Hey, username /nonsense_92 lurker on the sub, starting to become more active as of late. Don't generally leave reviews for the books I read but would be more than happy to talk about any books we have both read! Always happy for some discussion, feel free to add.

[Kathy]

Hey all! I'm /u/mistywhaler on Reddit, because I'd been playing too much Dishonored and Night in the Woods when I made the account, and also "skywhaler" was taken. I just made my first big post on the subreddit and still reeling from that.

I'm into all genres but fantasy is my bread and butter. Happy to receive friend requests!

[Karatics]

Hello all, I am /u/CrazyMinxi on Reddit and Sassy Minxi #4511 on Discord. I will use this group for recs, where the thread I will use to discuss, and the Discord to just chat. I am currently an aspiring fantasy author and I am kinda interested in all genres except YA and romance.

Some random facts about me are that I knit, lover/reviewer of tea, and I am getting my BA in English Language and Literature to become a professor.

[Daniel]

Hi everyone - /u/dsmgriffin on Reddit. I'm trying to get more involved in good book groups online because I'm tired of being a lonely book reader! (and I find f2f book groups very cringeworthy most of the time).

[J.C.]

Hi, I'm /u/jckang on Reddit. Joining now because I'd LOVE to talk about Jade City!

The traveler draws cloak tighter about him. The cold wind blows across the desert sands. All about stretches a red dust infinity of dune and bone, ruin and shattered stone...

A blood-stain of a sun falls towards the horizon. Behind the traveler, come faint howls. Wolves? Wind? Ghosts maybe, of ancient book clubs, forgotten web-pages of bad lit-chatter. Horrible undead remnants of civilization, shadows of fantasy staining the clean wasteland sand...

DSM hurries on. A light in the distance! He sees figures huddled about a cheering campfire. Telling stories. People still do that?
He considers. Might be cannibals, or mutants, or grim-dark zombie types. Editors, even. But the fire looks warm and inviting...

[Mark]

Hi everybody, I'm /u/markjszy on Reddit. Just started adding more fantasy and sci fi to my reading list and am looking forward to discussing Jade City this month!

[Alexia]

Hi! I'm /u/Daydreamer97 on Reddit. I joined mostly because I enjoy the discussion on r/Fantasy and I'd like to see the book discussions here too. I'm here to get opinions on which books I should get and read. At the moment, I'm reading The Great Hunt by Robert Jordan. I mostly enjoy epic fantasy so I'm pretty glad there's a lot of that on r/Fantasy.

[Kathryn]

Hi, I think I failed to post here when I joined this group awhile back. Since I think I just volunteered myself to lead the April 2018 book discussion I thought it might be time to fix that!

I'm /u/Tigrari on Reddit and I read almost exclusively SF & F.

Thanks to r/Fantasy my TBR has exploded in recent years, but it means I'm never at a loss as to choices of what to read next!

[TinyDooooom]

Hi I'm u/TinyDooooom over in r/fantasy (surprise!) I'm doing bingo for the first time so joining up here to participate.

[Caleb]

Hi, I'm u/CaRoss11 on r/fantasy.

I'm here mostly to participate in more discussions about fantasy novels with like-minded people and am excited to be part of more groups involving that.

I frequently comment over on r/fantasy, and sometimes post as I just enjoy being involved in a community like this.

[Mel]

Hi! I'm /u/nigfutons and I mostly just want to use this group to talk about different books with other people - not many people in my actual vicinity share my love for fantasy so I'm hoping to get that here!

[Phil]

Hi, I'm u/Phil-Parker. I'm an avid reader of all forms of speculative fiction but mainly any type of fantasy. I'm an independent author, my trilogy is on Kindle. I use GoodReads to get the recommendations I need to find new authors as well as to stay up-to-date with all things fantasy.

[André Luiz]

Hi guys,

I'm u/Dragon_break and really love fantasy. Hope make friends here and share books and discover new ones.

[Nate]

Hi, everyone! I'm u/GrimdarkDM.. Longtime lurker on /r/Fantasy and a passionate fan of anything involving wizards, dragons, and/or dice with too many sides. Looking to make some new Goodreads friends and have a group to discuss fantasy with so I can stop driving my long-suffering family insane. (They politely endured a Manifest Delusions rave last night.) Thanks for adding me!

[Stanley]

Hello, I'm u/stanleythornton, though I haven't been there in quite a while. I've been busy as I've been writing the fourth book in my Fantasy dragon series, but took a break to write a Fantasy novella collaboration about a little red dragon and bullying, which is finished but not yet released. For those who might be interested in knowing my books, they are listed below, if not, don't read any further :D My series takes place on Earth, so it interacts with history: He Walks with Dragons, The Staff and the Orb, The Crown and the Dragon, and soon The Dragon on the Hill....

[Chandler]

What's up y'all. I'm u/chandlerjbirch, author of THE FACEFAKER'S GAME. I'm also @chandlerjbirch and chandlerjbirch.com but on Facebook I'm chandler.j.birch.author because I am a cottonheaded ninnymuggins. Excited to jump in and rave about some good books like the trashy geek I am.

[Gabriele]

Hi everyone,
I'm /u/CyniqueOptimiste, and I'm the author of the Gods Inc. series - 2 books for now: Incompetent Gods and Inclement Gods; the third, Incoherent Gods, due to come out in the fall.
I'm learning how to use Reddit very slowly, so I just found this group. But hey, just in time, because I'm scheduled to be Reddit's Fantasy Author of the Day next Monday. Come and AMA!

[Eric]

Hi,

I'm /u/Hawkun on Reddit. I'm mostly a lurker. A few months ago I decided to play less computer games and start reading more. Now I'm loving tearing through all these great books that I've missed over the years. I'm glad I stumbled upon /r/fantasy as it has been such a great source of recommendations.

[Emily]

Hi! I’m theflyingengineer, usually a lurker but I make the occasional comment or mini review!

[Michael]

I joined the group last night as a long time reader of r/fantasy. My reddit id is /u/michaelramm and I am looking to expand my fantasy bookpile past the "big guys".

I bought Kings of Paradise last night and excited to start it with the group.

[Sam]

Hello, I'm /u/clickity_clickity. I'm a IT technical consultant by day, writer by night. And hopefully one day, writer by day and IT consultant by never.

I'm the author of The Worst End User: And Other Stories, which is a collection of IT short stories originally posted on Reddit. I also wrote an RPG called Cold Start, and most recently a fantasy novel called The Wizards on Walnut Street.

I love Fantasy and Sci-fi. It is literally my life.

[Paul]

Hi, /u/DefinitelyNotFamous here! Mostly a lurker but always reading fantasy!

[Darian]

Hey guys, I'm /u/Darian_the_Librarian. I am predominantly a lurker, but I'm always looking to find new material to read. You guys give great suggestions and provide good reviews and discussions of many great books.

[Gabriel]

Hi guys! I'm interested in starting a live book club discussion over Zoom (better version of Skype) with a small group (max 12 ppl). The kicker is that I have connections to experts (PhDs and Adjunct Professors) that would be willing to lead more academic discussions on the book. I think it would be a great way to go more in depth and build community with each other. There would be a fee, though, but I wanted to at least get a sense of interest... Anyone?

[KJ]

Hey everyone! I am /u/keljalapr. I am also usually a lurker - I am more active on /r/fantasywriters. Mostly I love grimdark but I've bee trying to branch out.

Awesome, I'll PM you.

[Leilani]

Heya, y’all! I’m /u/CruelSister1982 & I go by LL. She/her. Anyway, I mostly lurk, read & upvote but I do love using the community to make myself lists (especially for the under the radar stuff & books w/diverse characters & settings). I love fantasy (and sci-fi) of all types. It really just depends on my mood. I will usually give every book I pick up a fair chance to grab me.

Anyway, I’m hoping I can participate in next month’s book club. Can’t wait to see what the selection will be.

[Ruben]

Hey, I'm u/Blakaraz_ on Reddit, fairly new to the sub but it really seems nice for picking up new stuff.
I would really like trying out the monthly book discussion.

[Alex]

Hello everyone !! u/Elpopov here, mostly lurking, posting from time to time ! Join the group for new ideas, books of the month and all. Big fan of fantasy, bit of sci-fi and other stuff. But mainly fantasy !

[Azeann]

Hey everyone ! I'm u/Azeann ! I'm new to reddit but I'm a huge fan of fantasy and I want to discover more about it. I'm French so a reddit community is also an opportunity to find new authors and books that are not translated yet. I'll try to join the book of the month when possible !

[Kyle]

I'm u/speedchuck on reddit. Just joined the fantasy group recently, and then I saw this. Checkin' out the neighborhood.

[Arbie]

Hello! I'm u/arbiekrae. I don't post a whole lot over on the reddit but I enjoy reading the recommendations that are put forward. I'm hoping to join in with some of the monthly book discussions.

[PopeDryden]
