UK Amazon Kindle Forum discussion

We are a friendly lot here and there is something for everyone.

If you are struggling to get round our site try Group Quick Start

Please start by adding a post to our ‘Introduce Yourself ‘ thread. We are a nosey lot and would love to know who you are, what you like to read (and write), where you live and what you drink, eat, wear and grow.

This thread meanders off-topic quite a bit but as soon as a new member comes along our friendly but bonkers members soon appear to give you a warm welcome.

Of course you don’t have to introduce yourself if you prefer.

Getting started is often a bit of a problem. Try our Group Quick Start for tips.

You could head off to Meet The Authors,check out our Monthly Book Selection, check out the New releases or play some Group Games.

The Author Zone is going great guns. This is not just for authors by any means but gives them a place where they can talk about publishing challenges and resources. It is a no-promo zone!

Even if you don’t feel ready to post something you are most welcome to sit back and watch the fun.

This forum is very lightly moderated (hardly noticeable), occasionally we will ask you to keep a particular thread on topic and we have a few simple rules about author threads and new releases.

There are plenty of ebook related threads, author related discussions including a debate on the merits of KDP Select and a place to share your musical taste.


If you have any problems you can post questions on the threads or visit our Agony Aunt and someone will come along and help. If you would rather not ask your question publicly by all means send a personal message (PM) to Patti or myself and we will try to help.

I archive this section from time to time, so if you want a conversation that isn't going to disappear, feel free to use any of the existing threads or start your own.

I am new in town and struggling to find my way around these boards. I am an author and I think i finally managed to add my book. I am also an avid reader and will give any genre a go! Looking forward to getting involved with lots of discussions!

Welcome Kevin. You soon get used to the layout.

Really hope so and hope I don't break any house rules while I am learning the ropes.

Ah, we're nice here. We'll let you off.

Welcome aboard Kevin

hii

Welcome Kevin!

If you need help or have any questions, just shout.

And get stuck in! We've lots of bonkers groupites in here. Laughter guaranteed.

Welcome Kevin!

Don't do it Kevin, I only pooped in to post an author's thread and my sanity has gone who knows where since then.

Good fun though, welcome to the group :D

David I am a creature of impulse and feel it is already too late to back out now! Hi Disney Diva, I think I am going to enjoy this site. Just updated my blog and linked it to my other blog. Book promotion is fun, it doesn't feel like working at all.

You have been warned ;~)

Nice cover art, by the way.

Hi Kevin!

Ha! We've assimilated another one!

Yay!

Hi Sara. Patti is it worrying that I am happy to be assimilated? lol

Thanks David, the cover art is the work of my very talented graphic artist brother, Paul McLeod.

Lucky to have such a telented artist for a brother

Well I'm not surprised, if you pooped in my thread I'd chase your sanity with a sharp stick.

HOW DID I MISS THAT TYPO?????

Hahahahahahahahagasphahahahahaha!

*note to self, buy a new keyboard and dig a hole when commenting on other people's threads.

Edited to add: a keybord where the "O" is not so close to the "P"

I noticed it but - apart from being too polite - I've cleaned up enough poop this morning. Chickens aren't particular, you know.

Hi all, I'm Sandra and I'm an alcoholic. Oh wait, not that kind of place? Let's see...Well, I write. That's about it really! *Bows out*

Hello Sandra, always good to meet new people.

Definitely. It's a pleasure to meet you, sir.

Yay Sandra!

So ummmmm.

You want some rum or not?

That's the perfect thing to give an alcoholic. Generally Gingerlily beats me to it..

Im getting the whips out now. And the rum.

Hi all, nice to meet you. I'm Conrad author of fiction thrillers and a horror series and some nonfiction titles too.
I enjoy reading but not as much these days, as writing seems to always take priority! My top authors are James Herbert, Lee Child, Stephen Leather, Stephen King to name a few.

Conrad Jones

Hi Conrad. Welcome to the group. If you find your way to Meet the Authors you can start your own little home from home.

Hi Conrad. Apparently we're handing out rum to all new members. All I got was abuse and the threat of a stint in the dungeon :-/

The whips are optional.

*ducks quickly and pops off the thread*

Pops.... not Poops... P,O,P,S

Hey Conrad! Yay, a familiar newbie!

David, spell it out all you like, I'm not going to read it right.

From now on I'm going to be refered to as the member who poops in threads. The shame :'(

Yep, you'll never live it down. Don't worry, to me you'll always be RoBox.

Toilet trained! Finally! Now that deserves a rum

Welcome Sandra :o)

Edit: and welcome Conrad! I didn't forget you I just got over excited at the lack of poop.

Oh cripes Jud. You make me laugh so much. :D

:o)

Hi Sandra and Conrad!

David, I wondered who left that mess lol ;o)

Thanks for the welcome! Poor David really is always going to be known as the man who poops in threads.

I'm still here you know... And I can read... Sorry Vanessa

The shame... :'(

Hi there I am new here.

I like fantasy, sci fi and horror books. I live in the UK and own a kindle!

Hi Paul. Get stuck in. We have a number of very good fantasy, sci-fi and horror writers in this group. Loads to choose from.

Hi Paul! Please excuse David. He's having some...issues.

:'(

And :'(

Wonder if Lindsay and Alexandra would mind sharing some wood chips in this thread?
Or Ignite, some chicken bedding?

Would make cleaning up after David much easier for me.

Welcome Paul!

Please excuse the smell.

:'(

*I have no words*

Oh.

He's awake.

Where's my Frebreeze?
