Welcome, Urenna.


message 152: by Fiona (new)

Fiona McGier | 128 comments Hi all. I'm a happily-married mother of 4 young adults, 2 of whom are in college, with a third one to go next year. I work 2 p/t jobs because I stayed home my kids when they were babies and only worked p/t as they got older...so now I'm apparently on the permanent p/t track in the minds of employers. I got an English major in college because I've been reading since before I started kindergarten, and writing almost as long. I've gotten essays published for years, but have only been a published author of erotic romance for 2 years. I write M/F contemporary love stories, and since all are consenting adults, usually in their 30s or beyond, they succumb to their lusts and indulge in mind-blowing sex, thinking that's all there is to it. Usually it is the man who realizes that they are meant to be together, and goes all out to prove it to the woman. Most of my books involve IR because I usually write about people living in the Chicago area, and this is a major metro area, with people of many races and nationalities inter-mingling. And to me, love knows no color. To learn more, go to my author page here on GR. I look forward to yakking with you all about books we love to read, since my kids just gave me money for a kindle for Christmas/bday(I'm a Dec. 26 baby), and I'm loving it!

Delilah Hunt (delilah_hunt) | 40 comments Hi Fiona. Welcome to the group. I'm a newbie author too. I only became published with my first novella in December. It's nice to meet you.


message 158: by Amy (new)

Amy | 7 comments @ Arch: I write from time to time, but have never ventured in the interracial genre. Who knows, I might participate in the challenge you mentionned!

@ Rae: thanks for your help! This is my first time being a member of a group on Goodreads so it'll take time for me to get used to how everything works!

@ Delilah: Yes, Belgium has 3 official languages: French (which is my mothertongue), Dutch and German! Unfortunaly I didn't understand what you said lol! I can't speak German (although I should!)

@ Delaney: Merci :)

Welcome Urenna and Fiona!

Hey Amy, we have a section for non challenge stories. If you want to share a non challenge (interracial) story, then feel free to.

If you check out bookshelves out, you will see a lot of us read non interracial stories as well.

What draws me to a story is tension and no, I'm not talking about sexual tension, because tension doesn't always mean sexual tension.

I also like seeing romance in a romance story.

I'll read a catcher, no matter if it's not an interracial story.

What kind of stories do you write Amy? I'm into contemporary stories. I like reading a good funny chick-lit too.

I'm doing a paranormal challenge for myself, because I'm not a fan of paranormal, but I'm trying something new.

I like reading about dangerous bad boys. :) I love writing about them too.


message 160: by Amy (new)

Amy | 7 comments I definitely love chick-lit too! I am not a real writer, in the sense that I would only write at times when inspiration strikes. I like tension too, that's when it gets interesting. I would say I wrote more drama than comedies. I have never tried to supernatural genre. I'll definitely give it a try!

Amy, I'm giving myself a chick-lit challenge, but that's coming later this year. I'm focusing on my interracial bad boy story - Trespassing and then I'm going to finish my Royal interracial story - Courage that's on this board. And then, I'm going to start my Uniform challenge story on here too. I have so many stories in the work. I definitely have to get back to my His Bodyguard story.

I love writing. It's fun.

Arkevans | 3 comments Hi!
I am a new member. Just joining to look for books to read. I generally read paranormal and urban fantasy, but I like any IR books and have read a few. I do write, but still working towards fiction publication.
Best to everyone.

Delilah Hunt (delilah_hunt) | 40 comments Hi Arkevans. I'm Delilah Hunt. I'm a writer also. It's nice to meet you and welcome to the group.


message 166: by new_user (new)

new_user Did you say paranormal and urban fantasy! I love 'em! :)


message 167: by Arkevans (new)

Arkevans | 3 comments Glad there are other PNR and UF fantasy fans here.
I am also glad to meet and here about other writers that I am not familiar with.
As for IR, I have only read a handful. I liked them, but I think I was slow to get into it because contemporary romance was never really my thing so IR didn't cross my radar. Of course, there are more IR's available so maybe the variety will be more apparent.

Arkevans | 3 comments To Delilah Hunt:

Is it ok if I follow you on twitter and add your site to my blogroll? I have a blog in progress and am working towards publication. I love to follow other writers.


message 169: by Delilah (new)

Delilah Hunt (delilah_hunt) | 40 comments No problem Arkevans. I'll follow you too and check out your blog if you leave the address!


Tanya Urban Fantasy Freak (tinky) | 2 comments Hi I'm Tanya! I'm a navy spouse married with 2 kids. As I child I loved reading sci-fi, fantasy and historical YA fiction. Now that I'm grown, I like sci-fi, fantasy and historical romance/romantica and anytype of multicultural romance/romantica involving a bw or hw. I prefer my romances be heavier on the sex side, no 'fade to black' for me, lol.

p.s. who sent me the IR clip from the movie 'SuperNova' ? ;^) it was ssssteamy, Loved it!

Welcome Tanya.

Delaney Diamond (delaney_diamond) Hello Tanya!

If you're ever interested in reading something a little less steamy, I'd love for you to check out my stories. My IR stories are sensual romances and feature Latin male heroes.

Welcome to the group!

Hello and welcome to any new members. Please take the time to read the group rules so that there aren't any issues with posting etiquette. Thanks!


♥Laddie♥ (Lee Lee) Hey, everyone. Umnn...four things...

1.) IR books were the first e-books that I ever read. I've read alot more than are in my bookshelf but I can't remember them all.

2.) I prefer Black woman/White male books but I'm getting into Black woman/Asian male stories. Those are really hard to find which is a bummer.

3.) I'm 28 and single because I still haven't found a big, burly man who's military (I admire their bravery and selflessness), owns a security company, drives a motorcycle, loves to read, has a wicked sense of humor, a sharp mind and a love of small pets.

Really, I'm just shy...but I still want all of the above. :)

4.) I'm an artist when I'm not at my 9 to 5.

new_user Welcome, Laddie! :)

Arch  | 6707 comments Mod
lol, welcome Laddie.

By any chance, do you write? We have interracial writing challenges on here. Our next one and you can start now, is a interracial story about someone in uniform. The man or woman, must like it will be man.


♥Laddie♥ (Lee Lee) Thanks you guys.

@Arch
I like to write but I do it for fun. I'll definitely check out the challenge.

Laddie,

I write for fun too. 23 years of fun. This year will be 24 years.


message 181: by Delaney (new)

Delaney Diamond (delaney_diamond) Laddie, from your profile I see you've got a great sense of humor. Very funny. Lol.

Welcome to the group!


♥Laddie♥ (Lee Lee) @Delaney
Thanks for the welcome. I am a platinum card carrying member of the Better To Laugh Than To Cry club.

@Arch
Lol. I'm letting characters who wear uniforms swim around in my brain. I always want to write a story about military or law enforcement but I'm scared I'll get the facts all wrong.


message 183: by Arch , Mod (new)

Arch  | 6707 comments Mod
Laddie, I'm a make believe writer. My man in uniform will be a CIA agent. He's Asian. Heroine is black.

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 7331 comments Mod
Laddie, just do as much research as you need to do, and you can readily do that online. People want to read a romance, not a manual on law enforcement anyway.


message 185: by R. (new)

R. Tezak | 22 comments I just have to say after reading lots of wonderful, funny, insightful posts I wanted to add all of you guys as my friends. I never knew there was a group of people craving new IRR books, I want to read as many as I can although I am partial to paranormal romance, and very partial to IR paranormal romance, so partial in fact I wrote one myself. I am married in an IR relationship, I have two wonderful children, and when I have free time I spend all of it reading, writing, and obsessively checking Goodreads, twitter, and facebook. I love this group! :)

R. Tezak | 22 comments My book is called A Taste of Fire, I just signed with Parker Publishing in April, and I just sent in my final copy of the book on Tuesday and now I'm officially starting edits. I have the first chapter posted here on Goodreads unfortunately that's all I am allowed to share just yet, but I will definitely let everyone know the release date as soon I do. Thank you all for the wonderful welcome! :)
