Experiences

[close] Inspiration started somewhere for each and every author. As an author myself, I am asked frequently, "what inspired you?" I honestly wasn't sure the answer to this until I started writing my first book, and the answer came to me rather unexpectedly. I came to believe I was inspired by realizing there weren't enough voices telling stories I think people NEED to hear, and too many telling stories people WANTED to hear. I am now very curious what inspires other authors, specifically what inspires them to write about their chosen genres. I welcome you to include your story in this group, and perhaps it will inspire someone to start their own journey as an author.

[close] Hey friends, as part of my work with Books On The Run Germany I get to read a lot of amazing books. Some of them are Advance Reader Copies and I often find myself desperately wishing to chat with the author and/or to discuss the book with other readers. That is why I created UNTITLED. A group and platform to connect with authors and readers and to encourage creativity. The plan is to select and read a book every two months, then discuss the book during this time. When possible I hope to add an interview with the author. Our books come from all kind of genres with a focus on important and present matters regarding society, politics, health, history and many more.  It would be amazing to see UNTITLED grow into a beautiful and creative haven for like-minded people. Wherever you are in the world, I would be grateful to have you on board and participate. Feel free to let your creativity flow! Sam x Check out more: https://www.booksontherun-de.com/book-club
