@ Adam nice to meet you

[Matthew]

My name is Matthew Hogan. I've been in ministry for over 30 years. Most of that was alongside the work that paid the bills.
When I became disabled I finished up my Masters and Credentialing to become a Pastoral Counselor. I've been a pastor and an interim pastor as well. Declining health for both myself and my wife has brought us to where everything we do is out of our home. So, I still counsel online and write.
Selling books is strange for me as I have never charged for ministry.

[Joe]

Hey y'all! I'm Joe, and I look forward to meeting you. I'm an author, just off the release of my first novel. I'm currently working on two other projects, one a non-fiction book on the philosophy of economics, and the other a "Historical Science Fiction" series. I'd love for y'all to introduce yourself and hear what projects you're excited about! Cheers!

[Christos]

Hi all

My name is Christos Hooper, and I just put my first book, called 'Yo', up on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Yo-Christos-...

It's fantasy fiction, young adult, but I'd put it up there as enjoyable by us oldies. It has some adventure, some satire, some pointlessness 😁. But loads of mythical creature escapism too.

Next book is already under way - dark, humerous tale about a fun seeking middle ager, from stealing to murder. And a lot of laughs along the way. Watch this space!

Thanks!

Hello. My name is Eugene Stonefield. I author fiction books with a touch of history, some with a touch of fantasy, hopefully with a whole lot of reading fun. My latest book, Mav Caid - The Complete Story, has just been released on IngramSpark in print book only. Of course, it appears in the list of my books on Amazon.

My releases to date of books in ebook and print formats are:

The Saga tells the story of Angus in emotional trauma and brings the story of Angus to conclusion. This is a tale of a furry agent of tramp-merchant, Captain Glaucus, on his ship, Okeanos, with her repurposed crew drawn from Greek mythology. The tale is narrated by a normal narrator who is tasked with telling the story while dealing with commentary by an omniscient chronicler whom the narrator dislikes.

He encounters the violin-loving, sinister character, Professore Tchort, who offers his help in bringing wealth and fame to Pietro. A mysterious Adonai Sapienti draws Pietro's focus back to his life-long love for Adelaisa, a girl from his youth.

[Faith]

Hi, I'm (obviously) Faith Dyson and I 'work' (mostly), as an investigative journalist. It was with great shock I learned one of my reports has been cited, along with Liam Scheff's, my best friend and mentor, in Chapter 7 of Robert F. Kennedy Jr's book 'The Real Anthony Fauci', which has been #1 on Amazon, and a New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today and Publishers Weekly National Bestseller.

The comic relief in this introduction is that my favorite books as a young reader were those in the Nancy Drew series. From here on out - it goes down hill into the dark underbelly of Human corruption in all of its new age/age-old ugliness.

Since I'm (literally) always 'out of pocket' (as a writer and artist), I had no idea this 'momentous event' had happened and only ran across my name in the endnotes of RFK Jr's book when attempting to show Liam Scheff's name to a friend of mine as we were visiting our favorite bookstore. Imagine my surprise!

To be clear - Liam (now deceased), is cited for writing and publishing the original story exposing Fauci's criminal abuse of approximately 500 Foster Children in just one facility in NYC, which led to a Congressional Hearing into the matter. The evidence then confirmed the crimes, which ended in the deaths of some of his victims, and, therefore - the legislature created new laws to protect such helpless wards of the system.

I'm cited for adding Fauci's name to the information given by Mr. Scheff (which he omitted in his original report), as well as for my exposure of Fauci's torture of an additional 13,000 Foster Children in 6 other states during his illegal AIDS Experiments.

These AIDS 'trials' were perpetrated by Fauci and Pfizer along with other pharmaceutical companies and were ongoing throughout the 80s-90s - with a possible 48,000 (allegedly), added to that number who were illegally detained during the same time period by Maryland, just one of the seven states in which the crimes were committed, with a whistle-blower to prove it.

I'm currently investigating the same criminal activity still being perpetrated in medical centers across the country (also in violation of the changed laws), as well as the Cult-like Ideology and Agenda behind it that uses, abuses and seduces the most vulnerable among us into a 'life'-style of sex, drugs and death - rivaling any fictional plot found in books or on film.

My plan is to write a book exposing the format that's used by Big Government - in league with Big Tech, Big Pharma, Big Publishers - and Big 'Spiritualism', which will surprise most readers, because it's in the category of that espoused by Scientologists. Its philosophy has been proved over the last 41 years to be successful in infiltrating The American Collective Consciousness and thereby herding it toward the precipice of self-destruction, the major requirement for their 'Big Reset' of our - Genetic - 'Culture'.

Beyond all of that effort - I love to simply relax by painting with oil pastels, watercolors, and acrylics, writing and illustrating children's books, and immersing myself in 19th Century Literature. Candles and constant refills of coffee are mandatory. I drink it - now - in 'Gilmore' quantities.

[Addison]

My name is Addison Micks! I am a fairly new author; I just published my first book in September 2022. I have 2 books out and am currently working on my third.
I focus on romance novels that aren't just about romance, but also have humor, action, and nail-biting adventure mixed in as well. I try to write each MC in my books as individuals. They each have their own baggage, their own quirks, and things going on in their lives that everyone else may not know about. As such, while the books I have written thus far are all part of the same series and focus on the same group of friends, they are all written differently to shine a light on what those particular MCs are going through. It keeps things fresh and unique.
I have been praised for drawing in readers, making them laugh out loud, be surprised by twists in the storyline, and have had 'complaints' that they were tired at work because they were up way too late the night before because they couldn't put the book down.
I'm still learning and growing as an author, and as such, I am always open to constructive criticism.
I look forward to getting to know more authors and readers alike!

Hello everyone! My name is Sarah Hobbs and I'm fairly new here. I've spent the last couple of years writing and working on a series and have just this year got around to the publishing process.

These are available on Amazon. Any feedback for them is appreciated.

Hello. I’m not a writer though I do consume books and am somewhat of a plot snob. Absolutely love the unexpected, complex characters, and an overall smartness about the whole story. Gentleman in Moscow, A Spot of Bother, Witches be Crazy & Astro Nuts, Breakfast at Tiffany’s … genre is irrelevant, it’s the story and how it makes you feel. How relatable the characters are and finding yourself not wanting to leave …

[Lydia]

Hello everyone.
I am new to this club. I am based in London UK.
I started reading non fiction books as a way to learn how to write my own memoir. I got the book published by a publisher in the UK.
My reason for writing was part of my therapy to help recover from abuse as a child and PTSD.
As part of my counselling my next task was to change my story and I have now found a safe haven in writing children's picture books.
I have taken to reading children's books again as a result, and find this to be my safe haven genre at present.

[Lady]

What’s the title of your book? I’d like to check it out. Thank you.

[Stephen]

Hi Lady D,

If you like it, an honest review on Amazon would be most appreciated. Offer expires midnight, December 31st.

Greetings,
I'm William H. Dewayne. My specialty (if you can call it that) is fantasy novels.
My current series is a gamelit fantasy called Mind's Journey. Three books are published as of tomorrow.

As for what I like to read, I enjoy fantasy and mystery mostly. Tolkien and Christie are fantastic staples of their respective genres, but that goes without saying. Stephen King books are awesome. Love reading comics and manga. Naoki Urasawa is amazing.

Things I like besides reading and writing: video games of all kinds, chess, anime, and classic movies.

[Nikolai]

Hi everyone! I'm a trans author, I generally write LGBTQIA+ fantasy and romance. I currently have one novel already published, Nights A Stray, and I have two sapphic novels currently in the launch phase! As for what I like to read, my favorite authors have been Ginn Hale and George RR Martin. I like both horror and wholesome stories, and my books are usually a mix of both. Feel free to add me as well!

Hey, Paul, if you get a chance, you might wish to check out the documentary "Bathtubs over Broadway." For someone interested in corporate or industrial theater, it provides an excellent historical perspective on the world where I spent much of my professional career.

[Cameron]

Hi everyone! I’m Cameron, and I’m 15 years old. I am an avid reader and love to read all genres. My favorite genres to read are young adult realistic fiction and romance. Reading books is the perfect way for me to relax and during the pandemic, I started writing. Since 2022 I have written two books and I am currently working on a third. These books are not yet published but I have enjoyed working on them, as writing had become a big part of my life. I write many reviews on my Goodreads account, if anyone is interested in reading them. In my free time I enjoy things like Psychology, skiing, helping my community, hanging out with my family, makeup, and of course reading!

[Clyde]

Hi folks! I'm Clyde and I'm a biomimicry student and cofounder of an education company. I've been an avid reader my entire life. I think it helps that I grew up on a cattle ranch in the middle of nowhere and read because there wasn't much else to do after the sun went down.

I'm publishing my first book March 2023 and will be launching at SXSW. This is a lifelong dream and I'm so grateful for the early positive responses. Please visit my Goodreads book page to learn more.

Also, anyone who is interested in readng an early advanced copy please message me, or just friend me. I love this community and am looking forward to connecting with more fellow book lovers.

Hi everyone!
I’m a Swedish author looking for reviews for my debut “It Came to Me on a Whim – The Story of Ingeborg Andersson, Child Murderess”, which was recently published in English. This fall it was used on the Scandinavian Crime Literature course at UCLA.

“It Came to Me on a Whim” tells the story of my great-aunt who killed her three children at the age of twenty-seven in Sweden in 1929. Through exhaustive research, I’ve strived to shed light on what led up to this tragedy, which had been a tightly guarded family secret for over seventy years. After the murders, Ingeborg was taken into custody and the reader follows her journey through court, prison and ultimately, a mental facility. Throughout the story, Ingeborg fights for forgiveness and refuses to lose the love of her life. Will her husband ever answer her prayers and take her back?

“Maria Bouroncle takes us deep into a story of real-life murder to show us the humanity – even love – behind the crime. A riveting read – haunting, atmospheric, and ultimately, heart-breaking”, writes Manil Suri, author of bestseller The Death of Vishnu.

Please let me know if you're interested!
All the best, Maria Bouroncle

[Linda]

Welcome Lydia, I love how you have turned trauma into positivity. I believe in such a spirit, especially to show children as early as possible that they can overcome life's challenges. My middle grade book I hope highlights that fact. In my story Mary Elisabeth Quigley is a 10 yo blind girl who decides to find her single father a girlfriend and lets nothing stand in her way.

I know you will find a caring community here. LindaE

[Lydia]

I would like to read your book and maybe add a review too Linda

[Gay]

I enjoy reading women's fiction novels and have written quite a few under my pen name, Tessa Gray. Recently, my daughter talked me into writing my memoir about growing up in the foster care system. I wrote 'Take Three' under my real name, Gay Ann Kiser. Writing can truly turn your life around. Since publishing that memoir, I've begun teaching memoir writing classes at our community college. I also published a book on how to write your memoir. This thing has truly taken on a life of its own, but as I read all these comments, I realize that adversity often creates better writing. I look forward to interacting with all of you. A very Happy New Year to 'y'all' as we say in Texas!

[Lydia]

Gay I would love to read your story. I have a similar experience as a young child growing up in foster care in the UK.

[Jessica]

Good morning!
I love books. All genres. I went down a rabbit hole about ancient witchcraft scriptures and added them to a dream I had where I fell in love with a mysterious stranger. It became a book! The Ascent of Dorothea Drazik. I like how easy to read and compelling to finish it became. Check it out! : )
