Goodreads Authors/Readers discussion
Introduce Yourself!
Hi there - I'm Kate. I was encouraged to join this group as I heard there is some pretty interesting, feisty dialogue taking place between readers and writers here. I was also pleasantly surprised to discover that it is possible to post fiction from Wattpad on goodreads - I'm currently writing the sequel to my work of lesbian fantasy fiction, Hal. You'll find the story here on Wattpad: http://www.wattpad.com/user/katecudahyAnyway, I can say I'm really looking forward to meeting, greeting and communicating with other writers and readers. Kate
Hi my name is Rajiv, (Inspiring Energy) is my profile name in FB and Goodreads, because I like inspiring and uplifting people when they have lost their path and their beliefs are shaken.I have a computer hardware company and I am in this business for 13 years now.
I love reading spiritual and self help books. I would love to write but do not have a clue, but deep inside me I know i will be writing someday, who knows this year I may start, because desire is growing day by day.
I love the community here in Goodreads and found 1 good friend who has similar taste of reading as mine, i am hoping to find more friends :)

Hi Everyone,I'm Alex, a mainly children's author from the U.K. My latest YA book, Last Chance Angel, has been short-listed for five awards and I have another YA novel coming out in June. I love talking about books (not just mine!), especially to the most important people, the readers.
Last Chance Angel
Hey everyone,I'm a lifelong reader and writer. Writing is one of the two greatest passions in my life, the other being theatre. I currently teach high school theatre during the day and write at night. My first novel "School of Deaths" will be released this May.
Good Afternoon, my name is Angelo J. Falanga. I spent 15 years in Brooklyn, NY working for Frank A. Stokes, a Navajo composer who took his sound over 30 years everywhere from CBGB's to Carnegie Hall. On a beautiful Friday afternoon, June 15, 2001, I asked Mr. Stokes for permission to write about him. I would record and transcribe 24 hours of interviews with Mr. Stokes and people from throughout his 30+ year career to form the heart of the work. Sadly, Mr. Stokes did not live to see the book completed. In December of 2010 he would go into his fatal heart attack sitting next to me. Mr. Stokes' wife would also pass months later. Now with their surviving daughter I am building a community though our Facebook page dedicated to keeping the memory of Mr. Stokes alive by exploring the music, cultural and scientific pursuits Mr. Stokes followed during his life. You are all welcome to the Facebook page, Stokesified! The Universe Frank A. Stokes Lived In and to see my author's page. http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/...

Hey, my name is Dana, I'm 24 and live in the Great North. Obviously I love reading and just this year started actively reviewing. It's amazing how many free books you can get when you start giving feedback. I am always looking for friends on Goodreads as none of my real life friends love reading like I do. Favourite genres are Dystopian/Paranormal/Young Adult. I am currently taking online prerequisite courses in the hopes of eventually becoming a dental assistant. That's all for now folks!
Also hi Dana - if you're that keen on doing reviews, I've always got a story available. But I expect you will be snowed under on that front.
Haha yes your assumptions are correct. I currently have a mountain of books that I need to review but thank you for the offer.
Hey! My name is Lena Black and I'm the author of A Dominant Man. I write, research, read, and edit. There pretty much isnt a time when I'm not working on my books.
Hello my name is Freddie Williams and I am a recently published first time author! When I'm not writing or working (I'm in the software industry), I enjoy fishing, rock climbing, boxing, and of course reading. The name of my book is Sins Of The Father and if anyone is interested in reading it I would be happy to supply a couple of free copies. The Amazon link to my author page is below. Thanks!http://www.amazon.com/Thelonious-Lege...

Hi, I'm Max Swanson, a recent GoodReads member, and the author of two self-published books, " Religion Unplugged: Spirituality or Fanaticism?" and "Communication: from Pheromones to the Internet and Beyond (2013)". I learned a lot while writing those books, and wanted to pass on the insight and knowledge that I gained. Both were recent Giveaways. I like the GoodReads concept, and am enjoying being part of various readers and authors groups.

I am a para-romance/Fantasy/Urban Fantasy/paranormal/romance writer based in the US. I hope my work becomes global and to continue to have my fanbase grow. Currently my novel Sin Eaters, which features hunting vampires, angels, demons, nephilm, witches, and battling humans vying to protect the world's innocent, is out now. Coming this June, SE2:Retribution, will be released.
I love writing fantasy. It helps me escape from stress in life and helps me put out characters who can show love, awesome butt kicking and more. I'm currently working on a contemporary romance and thinking about SE3 via fans requests.
My thanks to anyone who seeks out my work, I hope you are entertained! :)
