message 1: by Brett (new)

Brett Talley | 69 comments Hey guys! I am sure all of you here enjoy reading books, or you wouldn't be a part of this group. I'm a writer myself, author of That Which Should Not Be, and I often take part in interviews. It struck me though that it would be a great idea to let the readers talk back to the authors and let them know what they think about writing and the publishing world. If you are interested in being featured in one of my interviews, either send me a message here on Goodreads or email me at brettjtalley@gmail.com. If you want a taste of what I am talking about, here is my first reader interview. Check it out and let me know what you think.

message 8: by Barbara (new)

Barbara Tarn (barbaragtarn) Methink writers should also be readers. So if you want to interview me as a reader instead of an author, feel free to PM me and I'll answer your questions! :-D
(please note that I still read like a reader, looking for stories that I like, not the best literary manuscript eva as I hate purple prose! ;-p)

Brett Talley | 69 comments Ha! Sure Barbara. I will add you to the list! :-)

Steven (tbones) | 46 comments Hi there Brett, I am a big time book junkie and always have been since I was a little kid hiding in the stacks of kids books at the library while my mother took off to the other side of the library for whatever book she was looking for. I'd love to do an interview sometime. Let me know when and how you'd like to go about it. Maybe I can read through a series of your questions and sit down an answer them on my next days off. I think your interview idea and the one you did both work great and it is a very different perspective to see things from. Well, let me know if you want to interview me and I'll get back to you.

Sara (sarawyndspryte) | 243 comments I've thought about it and have made time in my schedule for a reader interview. (And fussed at my family about being a pain in my rear and de-railing some of my reading!) Want me to email you, Brett?

Brett Talley | 69 comments Keep the mails coming. This will be a regular feature. I have a few in the can, but want to keep doing them.

Tricia Kristufek | 181 comments Brett, while I haven't had a chance to read your book yet (it's on my list!) I would do an interview if you need another reader/writer/whatever to fill a slot.
