Hi: I'm looking forward to discussions in this group. Should be rather stimulating, I suspect. I'm an author of The Guardian's Wildchild, published by Omnific Publishing. Currently, I'm polishing my second novel, Forbidden. The setting is in the Middle East - fictional country. I acquired the assistance from a Muslim woman to ensure my interpretation and understanding of Islam is correct.I love to write, care of my very odd animals (including one husband), travel, and paint. My blog provides more details about me as an author and my writing: http://www.featherstoneauthor.wordpre...

Hi I'm Rachel Cade and I'm an IR erotic romance author. I just joined the group this morning, as well as being a Goodreads newbie overall. I enjoy reading good stories in all genres as much as I love to write. So I look forward to meeting everyone.

Hello everyone, I've been a member of this group for a while, but I just created this new author page for myself. My name is Adrienne D'Nelle Ruvalcaba.
Yes, that is my real name, not a pen name, so please try not to laugh at it (I know it might be hard though.. my name usually elicits at least one chuckle or "wth" type look). It's a mouthful, but it's real ;-)
If you have heard of Chupacabra, the monster that sucks the blood of goats in the south, please don't mention that my last name rhymes with it! I am well aware of that fact, because people love to remind me of it when I'm in Texas.
Speaking of Texas, that's where I come from (I say howdy, y'all and yonder, but NEVER yee-haw). I currently live in Southern Illinois, so I guess that makes me a So_Ill_Texan :-)
Please don't start any cyber fights with me about the Texas government or those "gun rights activists"; I think they are CRAZY too. I am on your side!
I like to make jokes, but most of them aren't funny. Token laughs will do just as well as genuine laughs... just sayin'
I write bw/wm IRR, but I haven't read a ton of books in the genre. The ones I have read have been all over the place. Some had shockingly low quality and were openly offensive, and some were wonderful. As an IRR author, my goal is to write good stories that resonate with those who read them. I also want to touch a special place in the hearts of WoC, because we have spent too long living in the margins! That sad "sassy black friend" trope can move over permanently :-)

Hi, my name is Sue and I live in the UK. When I was young the romance books that were available were WW/WM which I had no problem reading as a woman of color but I think its great that so many combinations of romance novels are available so I am discovering WM/BW, BM/BW, WW/BM.
Hi everyone! I'm Christine, a 25 year old, curvy romantic! I love to read and writer. Writing is my passion, my profession and my hobby. Apart from reading and getting myself into the world that amazing authors have created, I love movies, crafts, music- Kpop anyone?? I'd love to get to know everyone here and hear a lot of recommendations of yours!! Mwah!
Hello everyone!I found this group via Pinterest of all things (gah! I love Pinterest!).
I am a reader and writer of erotica and erotic romance. I write mostly intercultural and interracial stories. I'm so glad to have found this group! Interracial romances are underrepresented! So glad to have found a group that enjoys them.
Hello Everyone. My name is Toni A. Black. I'm new to the group as of yesterday.Now, about me...
I read and write mainly interracial romance and romantic suspense. But then again I read almost anything. I have an almost uncomfortably large library of printed books and ebooks. But I'm not planning on getting rid of them.
I think that the popularity of IR books makes a big statement about our changing society. I'm not sure yet what that statement is, but I'm waiting patiently to find out.
Anyway... glad to be a part of the discussion.

Hi, I'm Ines. I love all things romance, including my paler sisters, but I don't want to always read about porcelain skin and pink nipples and cores. So I typically ignore cover models and imagine the heroines and heroes of the ethnicities to my liking, which is rainbow bright. I also love making new friends. I get my book recommendations from browsing my friends' bookshelves.
Welcome, Ines! Lol, I do the same thing in some of my favorite books.
Hey, I am Marie, of www.romanceandsmut.com. On our site we have tagged over 150,000 romance books (much of it interracial) by topics, themes & categories. Our users can combine these tags to create unique search queries, providing them with the books that match their preferences. For example, you can search for multicultural & historical and it will give you a long list of books featuring this topic, sorted by popularity or latest releases. We have over 100 different content tags! We hope that you might find that useful when you search for new books to read!
Welcome to all the new members!
Welcome to all of the newbies!Marie, that sounds like a great resource. Thanks for sharing!

Welcome, Marie. I have to be honest. I get itchy about introductions that are basically self-promos. We like to know that our members want to be an active part of this group other than promoting their own interests.
Hi Danielle, I am very sorry, I did not mean to do anything against forum protocols! I am happy to remove my message if you prefer that. I just thought that this might be really helpful for people who have quite targeted preferences. Let me know, and I'll remove the post immediately!
I am loving this website Marie! It is very helpful and user-friendly too!

Not explicitly, no :(But, there are definitely BWWM in the multicultural and african-american categories! We are also adding more categories in the future and I'll keep that in mind!
