I've been an author for 25 years since I was 13 years old. I'm a single mom of an eight year old boy who's autistic/nonverbal.

Deborah | 4 comments Hello to everybody! Feeling excited joining this group :)

My name is Deborah, I'm 24. At this time I'm more a reader than a writer. But I'm doing some writing from time to time, gathering the materials for my book. Hope, when I finish my studying, I could publish it.

John Bentley (jaybeetrs) | 1 comments Vincent wrote: "Please introduce yourself! Do you write books? Do you just enjoy reading them?

I read and enjoy many books of fact and fiction, but The Royal Secret is the first I have written. A recently released 500 page long historical novel intertwining fact and fiction whose details are on the Goodreads site and has received some good reviews to date. It is a historical thriller covering many genres from politics to philosophy to science, tragedy and romance. Told through the eyes of a modern day woman her quest for the meaning of life and love takes her into a parallel secret world of a Tudor prince, who in a concealed name is one of the world's greatest poets and playwrights of drama, tragedy and romance

I am a retired entrepreneur and inventor, having created and launched the first Internet on TV in 1995 in the USA as a means for social use against autocratic rule. I now live in Portugal's sunny Algarve coast with my wife and dogs and do my best to save the world from destruction by the lunatics that run it today who substitute force for kindness to achieve their ends.

T.J. Vensarn Greetings, I am TJ and I'm an aspiring author. I've finished writing my first book and I'm starting on book two as my beta readers go through book one.

I'm new to Goodreads. I actually hadn't even seen it until I was doing a Google search for places to find good beta readers. Now that I've found it I'm anxious to look around and see what all it has to offer. It looks like a wonderful site.

So, I thought I would introduce myself and say hello. :)

Under the pen name Carolann Camillo I've pubished 5 books. My latest, Eyewitness, has Toni Abbott, a soap actress, on scene when a murder is committed. Too bad it's not part of the script but REAL LIFE. Now she has a target on her back. Check out https://twitter.com/eyewitnesscc1 for a peek.

John Gravino | 3 comments The Immoral Landscape (of the New Atheism) How Human Nature Poisons Everything and Why the Church Is Our Only Hope for Survival by John Gravino My name is John Gravino, and I have written a book, The Immoral Landscape (of the New Atheism). I am new around here, so I still get lost trying to navigate the Goodreads jungle!


message 11188: by Colette (new)

Colette Victor | 2 comments Hi, yes, I write books. I'm Colette Victor. I've had 2 published, a YA novel about a young Muslim girl looking for her identity in a Western world, Head over heart, and an adult novel, What to do with lobsters in a place like Klippiesfontein, about small-town life in post-Apartheid South Africa. I've just sent off my thrid book to my agent who will be knocking on publishers' doors on my behalf.
And, of course, I wouldn't be a writer if I didn't love reading. Like most of the people on Goodreads, I'm a voracious reader.


message 11189: by Joe (new)

Joe Bagnato | 6 comments F.I.G.H.T. - Family Inspires Great Hope Together: How We Fight My name is Joe Bagnato and I am 44 years old, married for nearly 21 years and a father of 2 girls one of which is now an angel in heaven. I am also a first time author, a memoir that takes us through the cancer journey that ultimately took my daughters life at 15 years of age. You can see how beautiful she was just by gazing at the cover of my book that was published through Electio publishing on the 3rd of this month. This is actually the first book in a series of 3 books under the same title. I'm very green to goodreads and am still a little lost trying to navigate. Feel free to ask me questions at anytime as I unfortunately have great knowledge when it comes to hardship and out of order grief.

Family Inspires Great Hope Together!


message 11190: by Charles (new)

Charles Blanchard | 16 comments Hello I am Charles. I am a writer of novels. My stories interweave elements from the animal and human world. They are fables. Many writers have inspired my work. Most notably Richard Adams, author of Watership Down, The Plague Dogs, among many others. And George Orwell, for his dark brooding dystopian kingdoms. Glad to know you all.

I recently wrote and published a book available on Amazon: How to Build Your Dream Home Without Getting Nailed! by the Chubby Builder. I wrote the book to help people who are embarking on the great and sometimes scary adventure of building a custom home. It's full of helpful info and real life stories from my 18 years as a custom builder. You can find out all about it and other helpful tips at my blog http://www.chubbybuilder.com/. I'd love to make new friends and discuss books, I enjoy, and learn about new books others on here like. Thanks, Chubby
