Jill Gambaro (jillgambaro) | 12 comments Hi All! I'm the author of "The Truth About Carpal Tunnel Syndrome". Too much typing brought on a very bad case of CTS for me. It took years for me to learn how to manage it and the book shares strategies and reveals the politics behind it. If anyone's experiencing pain, I'm happy to direct you to help.

Suenammi Richards | 2 comments Hello,

I'm a writer/reader of romance. My preferences are romantic suspense, historical, contemporary and some paranormal. My writing style is a bit different though. I stick to contemporary and I will be moving into sci-fi paranormal very soon. It all usually focuses on social issues like inequality and art. So please check me out and send me your best of the genre.

Hi Eiley! Will you be writing about depression? I think that would be a fine topic for young readers.

Tia Tormen (tiatormen) Hi, I'm a writer of Erotic Romance and Urban Fantasy.
I've been writing funny photo comic books for over 10 years and have an art photo book out as well. I am now writing more traditional novels and stories.
I have a new story coming out, The Write Lovers, with co-author CK. Stone. The first story is scheduled to be released on June 1st.
I am also an avid reader but there's really no genre that I stick to. I enjoy reading a lot of different books; everything from Stephen King to Terry Pratchett to Nicole Peeler.

Crystal | 1 comments Hello All! My name is Crystal Owonubi. I read a little, but I really LOVE to write. I just moved back to the states from Jos, Nigeria after living there for 8 years. I have three kids. I stay at home in the day with my baby while the other kids go to school and work a few nights a week. I just recently (March 15,2014) self-published a book that is listed on Goodreads. More reviews can be seen on Amazon. I look forward to meeting other authors and readers!

Leanne Scott | 8 comments Hi everyone I am Leanne, I released my first book "Forever Bound" last week. I am currently splitting my time between writing the sequel and wading through the online world trying to promote the first one. Did anyone else find the online promoting/blogging etc harder than actually writing the book? or is it just me?


message 7471: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Zigler (toriz) | 2898 comments Welcome to the group, Leanne!

Nope! It's not just you... Writing is easy, editing is a little more work but not too bad, but marketing is a lot of work.


message 7472: by Jan (new)

Jan Sikes (jansikes) I'm Jan Sikes and I am new to this group. To be honest, I didn't know until recently that Goodreads had groups, so am excited to find some that truly interest me. I love the sharing of information that goes on in groups. I always learn something. I am a self-published author with a brand new book due to be released in just a few weeks.

I openly seek reviews and will do a review in exchange for one for my book.

Gladys Carson (gladyscarson) | 7 comments My name is Gladys Simmons Carson of Dallas, Texas, a blissfully retired senior citizen who finally found time to write a book, which had been a passion for years. My memoir, “Triumph! A Battle Plan for Joy,” is about empowering yourself to be joyful, despite circumstances.

I am excited about joining this group to learn and share, but mostly to enjoy.

Christopher Taylor (christophertaylor) | 112 comments I'm Christopher, from Oregon USA. I've been writing since I was just a little guy but only started seriously writing fiction about five years ago. I have two books out on the shelf and a third on the way, as well as several gaming resources and adventures written.

Congrats on your first book. I'm starting my third indie children's chapter book, and I still find social media and book discoverability to be all-consuming and everlasting! Take heart: It does get easier as one's network expands and readership base grows.

Jan Sikes (jansikes) By the way, Leanne, would you like for me to review Forever Bound for you? If so, e-mail me the link at rijan21@gmail.com

Corey Lamb (officialcoreylamb) | 6 comments Hello everyone! My name is C. L. Allen, and if you haven't heard of me, I plan to change that. I recently published my debut piece of short fiction (the first part of a trilogy) titled "I Am Become Zombie", and I hope to spread the word to anyone who enjoys comedy, horror, satire, or anything different, really.

My first priority as an author is to connect with any of my potential readers, so please send me a friend request if I haven't scared you off! I am also willing to send free copies of my material to anyone who will write a formal review as a return favor (which is really my bread and butter).

Happy reading, and happy writing!
