[Christina]

Hello everyone! My name is Christina, and just thought I'd pop in to say hello. I enjoy both reading and writing and hope to find new authors to enjoy here in this group! I currently have two books of my own self-published, and hope to add more to the list, but at the moment, I am a bit stumped on my current project. As far as reading goes, I'm attempting 50 books this year! (Originally it was 24, but I was making so much progress that I decided I needed more on my list) Anyway, hope to meet fellow authors and readers and make a few new friends along the way.Christina Ann Gist

[L.A.]

Hello everyone. I am Linda, and write as L. A. Ramirez. I just published my first novel, a romantic-suspense that takes place here in Big Sky Country, Montana. It is called Big Sky Siren, Book 1 of The Big Sky Series. I love, to write, but reading is an addiction.
Besides reading and writing, I enjoy cooking, hiking and travel anywhere we can find a deal.
I'm looking forward to learning from the group, and finding new books to read.

[Alex]

My name is Alex Fayman. I am a professor of finance and I just published a Sci Fi book on Amazon. Its called Superhighway. Here is the synopsis:

Alex Fine is a gifted eighteen-year-old with an extraordinary ability to transport himself through the optical passageways of the Internet. While inside the digital web, Alex is capable of downloading databases, manipulating archived data, and traveling to any destination in the world. Alex discovers his powers just as he is ready to enroll in his freshman year at a prestigious West Coast university, causing an unexpected detour in his plans. In a short period of time, Alex Fine becomes one of the richest people in the world, with virtually limitless power. In a hastily arranged scheme, Alex becomes a digital Robin Hood, as he steals money from a criminal oligarch to fulfill his philanthropic goals.
The reader meets the eighteen-year old as he travels through an optical cable at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico on his way to a private island. Suffering from physical and emotional trauma, Alex is guilt-ridden and considers suicide. He believes he is the sole reason for that day’s breaking news events, which have the potential to harm millions of people.
The novel describes Alex’s life leading up to that fateful day, including his upbringing at a Los Angeles orphanage, the discovery of his superhuman powers, and his attempt to fuel a philanthropic campaign. He has to learn on the fly about power, money, love, sex and drugs. Initially, Alex finds some success in his transformation from a poor orphan to a superhero, but due to his impulsiveness, he makes mistakes in his personal life and brings down a major financial institution. It is the story of a young man who wants to use his powers for good, but makes mistakes en route to discovering the truth behind his supernatural abilities.

Thanks for the welcome Victoria and Theresa! My fantasy novella A Mer-Tale is on Amazon. Looking forward to learning heaps here, especially about how to sell on Amazon as I am such a newbie there. My next novel is being published by IFWG publishing Australia in July.

[Millie]

Hello everyone!
I am Millie. I am British originally, but now live in Greece, and I have turned my experiences of the culture into middle grade books which aim to present the local way of life, the traditions and speech patterns. I have self-published them on Amazon, together with Jump Magazine, a free online publication for pre-teens.

I am a polyglot and have a background in linguistics, which I intend to use for my next writing project!

Nice to meet you all and have the chance to bookmark so many interesting-looking works.

Your book looks good. I plan to check it out, but right now I can't buy any new books as I'm moving and can't really justify the cost of even cheap ebooks right now (especially when I have a stack of them sitting on my Kindle waiting for me to read them). Any books that make it on to my to-read shelf will be brought eventually though; sorry if it takes me a while.

[Nicholette]

Hi everyone! I'm glad to 'meet' you.

[Carla]

Ever heard of Wanaka, New Zealand? Have you seen The Hobbit films, or LOTR for that matter? Then you know where I live!! Mwahaha! Yep, I'm Carla and my living room windows look out to the Misty Mountains - literally. No jokes! I write young adult fantasy/sci-fi because I can. Ha, no, really I write because I have to. Too many stories and characters trying to get my attention to tell their stories in my head! So here I am putting the first of them out there. Hope you LOVE it!

Welcome to the group, Harry, Tracey, C.J, and Carla!

[Anca]

Hi, I am Anca. I read at least one book per week, often switching between books according to my moods. In other words, I've been a bookworm all my life.
As regards writing, I did that since years without having the courage to publish anything. All that is about to change soon, as I am about to publish my first book. I write medical non-fiction. I work as a physician and it's difficult for me to write anything else, although I read from many fields.

[Paul]

Hi, my name is Paul and I'm an avid reader of all fiction. I've just self-published my first novel, a traditional western called THE LITTLE SENTINEL OF THE SIERRA NEVADA.
