Inkshares Community discussion

If you're an Inkshares author (published, publishing, funding, or draft, it's all good!) and you don't mind sharing your general location with the rest of us, come look at this map and add your location!

>>> NOTE: Do NOT add other people, just yourself. <<<

https://www.google.com/maps/@41.11499...

To add your location, click on "Open in My Maps," then type in your city and click "Add to Map." Once the point is added, you can click on it to edit the name.

Done! Cool idea!

yay!

This is pretty awesome. I know a couple of other Inkshares authors in my city, and a few readers too, but it would be great to learn of a few more. My hope is to find enough locals to establish a sort of book club where everyone places their paper-copy pre-orders through a single person, thus sharing the shipping costs.

That's a great idea! Other than mere curiosity, I'm definitely hoping this map will help some of us to coordinate meeting up in person. It would be really cool if it led to writing groups, convention trips, partnering up for local marketing efforts, etc.

ALL RIGHT who is Omaha?

They are a very brave soul, who dareth approach halfway to The Vault while the rest of us hangeth back i' th'East.

It seems I'm the furthest south...

I can see my house from here!

lol
Bravely bold Sir Omaha, the most mysterious adventurer to ever venture into the Midwest.

@Tabi : I have now claimed the 'most south' title...lol

I don't know who the first Omaha was, but I am the second.

I got the pacific northwest all to myself....for now! lol

Reporting in for the Appalachians myself.

@Paul Indeed you have. Well, than I am the most south in North America lol

Sounds like grounds for a nickname to me! You are now Second Omaha ;)

Haha, I shall bear that mantle, forever wondering the identity of First Omaha.

I appear to have Europe and Asia entirely to myself.
Game of RISK anyone?

Surely Paul Robinson claims most South title b a considerable margin? ;-)

Asheville NC here! Yay for me!

You're practically next door to me.

Brooklyn, New York.

Don't forget to add yourself to the map!

This is Rebekka Leber, reporting in from just left of the Middle of Nowhere, here in Springfield, Il- the home of some guy named Abraham Lincoln, but more importantly, the delicious, artery clogging, calorie bomb known as the "Horseshoe". What is a Horseshoe?

I'm Kelsey Rae Barthel and I'm in Edmonton, AB, Canada. Now that i put it on the map i'm all alone up there.

Kelsey: I have family in Calgary, and visit every Christmas. We should do lunch or something, next Christmas; it's only a three-hour drive....

Totally. It would be cool to meet someone from the site. I have cousins in Calgary as well

Greetings from Chicago!

I love Chicago. I really want to go back

Are you the one that keeps stealing my parking spot?

But, seriously, West NC represent!

Well, Northeast TN represent! here, but close enough. I've only made it out to Asheville a handful of times, and those were typically rushed since I was basically playing stagehand for some indie rapper friends of mine but it always seemed like my kind of place.

Also, I just now realized you were a different Jason than I was thinking of. I just got around to checking out your book. Good stuff.

Jonathan D here and though half my family is in Toronto, half in Tel Aviv , and another half in NY (Yup that's 150% u counted right!!)

I myself actually live in LONDON, UK ...

am I the only "Brit" around? I think there are at least two more (Oliver and Kirsty) but not sure they are on Goodreads...

Greetings from Saint Cloud, Florida!

Ah cool, I have a couple of friends that live in that area. Yeah, Asheville is a cool town, I love it here. Just wish it wasn't so expensive to live here.

And thanks for checking out my book!

Yeah i counted you and Kirsty. isn't the bottom left of the UK actually France?? ;-)

Hi Olli,

I am on Goodreads if you were wondering Lol.

I must admit, I don't think there are many of us 'British' people on Inkshares.

I live in Norfolk, which is quite windy and cold!

Hah, I see Jamie's gone and marked himself with a star instead of the usual upside-down teardrop marker. Way to get everyone's attention, Jamie!

Joni, Kirsty, I don't see either of you...?

nah Christopher, i dread things like that .. marking myself on the almighty google for the government to see? are u insane man!!!

;-P

This is SO COOL! :D Just added myself. I'm from Philadelphia, PA! Looks like I'm not that far from Christine! How awesome.

Okay I tried to add myself but I'm functionally illiterate when it comes to fancy computer stuff...so I'm not sure I did it right. Otherwise, it looks like I'm the one holding the fort all the way out here in El Paso, TX.

This is awesome. Just added myself. Dang... all the cool kids are out east apparently. Haha. I'll hold down the California fort.

I'm in Los Angeles. I picked a skull and crossbones because it made me laugh.

Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Nice to meet/read about y'all!
