Indie Authors discussion

Please take a minute and introduce yourself to the group. Who are you? Do you write? What genre do you write in? Etc.

I'm Stephanie. I'm an Indie author, and I write Paranormal Romance.

Hi I'm Tana...I live in Ontario Canada...I read all the time and spend a lot of time on goodreads. I don't write stories or novels but I think I dream great plots for stories, sad part is I usually forget it by the time I make it to my coffee maker.

Hello, my name is T.P. Grish, you can call me Grish. I write fantasy books, and my debut book turned out to be a dark fantasy I am proud of. I type on an old laptop with a missing 9 key. Lol.

Hi Everyone - It's nice to be part of this cosy little group! My name is Marta and I love to write almost as much as I love to read. I grew up reading Judy Blume, Nancy Drew and Trixie Belden. As an adult, I enjoy reading anything by Tess Gerritsen, Linwood Barclay, Mary Higgins Clark and John Grisham, to name but a few. I've written two middle grade fiction books and just recently published my first ebook through Amazon, TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE, a story I characterize as "women's suspense".

my name is Kaylee. I am currently writing a book. it is about vampires. i should have it done maybe next year. i write in any group.
thanks for letting me become part of your group!

My name is Eileen Robertson Hamer and I write mysteries. My protagonist is an ex-Marine and Darkpool agent, wounded and sent home to Chicago, where she's starting a new life as an architect. My debut novel CHICAGO STORIES: WEST OF WESTERN, is at Amazon now and the second, ALONG THE RAVENSWOOD, will be up before December (I hope). both are for Kindle but will be out in paper soon. I read all kinds of mysteries and my favorites change all the time. always include Daniel Silva and Lindsey Davis, though, and Laurie King and Donna Leone and jacqueline Winspear and, well, pretty near everybody.

Hi, everyone! My name is Danielle Tara Evans. I self-published my first book, Escalators: A Novel, in June of 2012. I also read and review other books written by indie authors. Feel free to add me as a friend! :)

Hello all,

I'm Xavier Edwards an Erotica (and some light ER) author from the wide brown land down under. I spent my formative years growing up in the Australian bush, surrounded by women, reading voraciously, and writing.

In a town far away from the big smoke - without a movie theatre, and no such thing as the internet or cable television, there was plenty of opportunity to explore and appreciate the beauty of nature, and the natural beauty that is country women.

I have only recently turned my hand to writing erotica for a wider audience, having done so for a very small group of readers for some time. I published my first short story in May 2012 and have been publishing stories regularly since then.

Currently, I'm writing short stories in and around the various sub-genres of erotica, so if I've written something you don't like, just wait and something you do like is bound to turn up soon. I am looking to writing novellas and full length novels in due course.

Hi. My name is Stephen L. Wilson and I have published a handful of books, including a serial, a publication for someone else, and a personal book of short stories. I am currently gathering contributions for an anthology I am publishing as a fund raiser for the Sandy Hook Elementary School victims. I know that many authors pour their soul into the written word when they are hurt. Here is an opportunity to put that pain to good use, and to know that your actions are helping others. Please join the Indies In Action Facebook group if you are interested in making a difference. Thanks.

Hi there, Stephen, and all those who came before me.

Hi, I'm Chris. I haven't been on goodreads for a while and I've missed everyone. I am a recently published author and I'd love to share my book with you. It is called The Sword of Hope Destiny Awaits.

Hi, I'm J.D. Hallowell.

I write both fantasy and SF. I've had two fantasy books, Dragon Fate and Dragon Blade, published so far, with two more due out this year.

I look forward to learning more about everyone here.

Hi Chris and J.D.

My name is Kelly and I am a YA paranormal/horror/fantasy writer. Glad to meet all of you!

Hi, Xavier!

Hi, Kelly!

Hi, Kelly, and you're welcome, J.D.

Hi Stephanie. Nice thread you have started. Thanks a lot!

Science fiction is mainly what I write, along with a little contemporary fantasy and some Gaean poetry. I've worked as a gov archaeologist, journalist, freelance non-fiction science writer and, since 1988, as a published sci-fi author. Have seven SF/F novels out plus one book of poetry.

My most recent novel is the combat sci-fi novel Stellar Assassin, which features Al Lancaster, a lone human shipwrecked among aliens in a star system run according to galactic alien rules. He turns to violence and theft in order to survive, but hates it. Oh, and there is a decent romance in the novel, featuring an alien cat-woman. Everyone should feel free to visit my author page of T. Jackson King here on Goodreads. Tom.

Hi, T

Hi Xavier! Nice to meet an Aussie here and also a writer of erotic romance. Nice covers on your various books. And liked your website a LOT. Very very professional looking. And a nice author bio with your family, career, etc. details. Just the kind of stuff any serious reader likes to know about the author whose works they are reading. Good luck on great sales! Tom.

Hi there, Debra, and thanks Tom!

Greeting All -
I'm an indie writer of speculative science fiction thrillers and supernatural/paranormal horror. I'm a reader of just about anything that looks interesting except paranormal romance... sorry, but Stephanie Meyers ruined that genre for me.

I've published three books to date. Two of these are part of the Imagine Trilogy - "No Heaven" and "No Hell". The third "No Religion" will be out late summer this year.

The third is a horror story anthology published under the pseudonym, Alex Eldrich, titled "Lovably Dead". I used the pseudonym because a couple of the stories are bit... well, gross and I didn't want readers to associate that with the high caliber writing that is the Imagine Trilogy. LOL.

Kidding, of course. Actually, I simply liked the idea of writing under a pseudonym and Alex Eldrich caught my fancy... ;o)

If not mistaken, this GR group links to the Indie List so I'm looking forward to working with and for indie writers through both venues.

Hi there, Lex
