The authors need to be from goodreads.

Hello! I really introduced myself in the main introductions page, but then saw this one. Right now Goodreads has listed one of my two published books. I haven't added the second and I'm actually working on a re-write of the first. It was published well before it was ready, but at the time I was young and didn't really understand that. Now that I do, I'm re-working it.

Thank you Jesse. We would love to have you as an author in this group. You can share whatever books you want in this group.

Hey, everyone. I forgot to post here. I'm already an author who is working on my second novel which is a fantasy/young adult one. I'm trying my best to publish it this year. For now, I only have one work that's published which is a mystery/crime fiction novel. ^^

Thank you Simi. You are free to discuss about your book right here.

Thanks, Rumell :)

Thank you, Sameer. It is amazing to meet inspiring Authors like you. Please feel free to discuss about your work with us at this group.

Is it ok discuss about author interviews and such? I just got into a podcast interview, and I was hoping to share it.

Yes, there is a section on that, actually.

I wish show you a link to it.

Oh, thank you :)

Good morning all.

I'm a fantasy author of three books. I get good reviews from people who read them, but I am really at a loss on how to publicize them. I've got no head for marketing, and I'm quite the slouch when it comes to social media.

My latest book is one of my sweetest though. It began when I reflected of a story arc where Faeries steal people away from inscrutable reasons. That germ of an idea became the basis for my latest book, "The Dream Chest."

Bridgette is your average High School students. After a rough day of being bullied, mocked by her "best friends" for her weight, she escapes to the magical world of Shard via a computer game she found on the internet. In Shard, she has the beautiful body she previously could only imagine, and everyone loves her and showers her with kindness and praise. And when she returns home -- all her problems are still there, unchanged and only growing worse from the neglect.

Her natural reaction is to retreat again to Shard. Again. And again... until she finally sees the trap she's heading towards, after meeting fellow earthlings who found themselves ensnared, willingly... or not.

Like I said above, I'm no genius when it comes to generating interest in my books. I'm grateful for feedback, advice or help. In exchange... I hope you like the book.


The Dream Chest

Nice to meet you E.P

Nice to meet you too, Rumell.

How do you even publish a book? I'm working on one, and I really wanna publish it.*whines cause idk how to publish a book*

Not sure if I mentioned here. If not, I apologized. I just want to let everyone know that my Fantasy/Young Adult novel has been published, not too long ago. If you're not a big fan of romance, I think you guys can check it out. The Serpent Girl is about a woman who has been an outcast because of curse that took hold of her. That's what she claimed. But to the fifteen-year-old girl who came across the woman doesn't think so. The story deals with friendship, family, and betrayals. Feel free to check it out and spread the word. Reviews are welcome, too.

Hello everyone! My name is Kelly, and I'm a goodreads author too! I'm currently in the process of publishing my book with Inkitt Publishing, and would love it if anyone had some time to read/review for me on there - but if you'd like to also write a review here on Goodreads, that would obviously be amazing too!

My book is a YA Fantasy novel, set in Ireland and is about a young half fae who the rest of the Sidhe (pronounced Shee) despise because he is something new and unknown. If you'd like to read it for free, the first 10 chapters are available right now, with more posted every day.

Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Sounds intriguing, Kelly. I might read it soon. :) Good luck on your sucess.

Hello, everyone. My name is Elizabeth Jane Morgan and I'm a new Goodreads author. (Please, just call me Elizabeth). I hope you'll have time to check out my fantasy book, "Silver Rose," and maybe leave me a review. Is there a way for me to post a picture of the cover on this?

Anyway, Silver Rose is a Young Adult fantasy set in a magical world called Alsmora. It is the first of a trilogy. The protagonist, Penelope Bogg, discovers that she has magic at the age of sixteen, even though she was supposed to receive her magic when she was thirteen. The story focuses on Penelope and her new friends, Mag and Artie, trying to retrieve a stolen item, but the only way to do that is to meet the demands of the thief. If Penelope doesn't get her stolen item back, she'll never be able to fully master her magic, which she needs to defeat the big bad guy in the end.

Please note, the thief and the big bad guy and completely different characters. The thief just tasks Penelope with saving three individuals that were kidnapped by the villain.

I hope my description wasn't too confusing.

Happy reading!

thanks so much Simi! I hope you like it. Good luck to you too! xx

Hey everyone. I'm Julicia Salvatore, a new author. I'm very into anime and mangas so want to some day soon turn the book I wrote into a comic/manga. I'm interested in getting to know what other people look for in books and would appreciate honest reviews if you ever get the time to do that. :)

Hi everyone,

I have just published a new book, Angels Can't Swim. It is a novel about student-athlete life, sexuality, and college student life in general. All readers should find something relatable in this story. I hope that you will check it out! Feel free to learn more on my website. Thanks and have a great day.

Hello all,

I just published my first novel, It's All Greek to Me. It's a young woman's story of losing everything she holds dear under suspicious circumstances, and coming to terms with what she must do to get her life back on track...namely, become a sorority mom. It's a tale full of hilarity, romance—and yes, suspense— that will keep you guessing until the last page. "A light and fun summer read!" said one reviewer.
I am a Goodreads author, and I look forward to wherever this adventure takes me! Thanks for reading!!

How to publish a book?
I just wrote my first novel (well it isn't quite ready yet) but I can't figure out how to register for a goodreads author account

Because I only know how to become an author
According to the goodreads website, I am supposed to click the "Is this you,let us know" button and wait for two bussiness days but I am not sure how to publish a book
Can anyone help me?

Authors need to legitimate authors from Goodreads. You are not an official author from Goodreads. You can't introduce yourself here.
