[close] TOP SECRET

[close] (Click on the cover to go to discussion) We believe reading is fun and find unique and challenging ways to spread the love of reading. The aim of our book club is to entice you, grab your imagination, and create an environment where people can discuss their thoughts on books in a warm, friendly, and inviting atmosphere thereby making everyone's reading experience more fun. Although reading is seen as an individual activity, you may be surprised to learn that reading challenges, "book of the month" discussions, reading games and competitions all help to enrich our love of books, read more, and find great book recommendations.

[close] It's a Clurb, for a books.

[close] Long ago, dragons were hunted to near extinction by the order of St.George, a legendary society Dragon slayers. Hiding in human form and growing their numbers in secret the dragons have become strong and Cunning and are positioned to take over the world with humans none-wiser. Although, not every Dragon is part of Talon. There is a group of Rogue's who don't agree with neither St.George nor Talon. What are you. A Soldier, A Rogue or Part of Talon?

[close] As an author, do you ever struggle to find names to suit your characters? Do you tend to run through the same ‘list’ of names mentally before searching for something fresh, new and appropriate? Have you ever deliberately avoided using a name because you know someone who has it and perhaps they are not your favourite person in the world? Or conversely, because it IS the name of someone you like? Have you avoided using a name because it is over used already in literature and other media? Have you ever used your own name in writing? If so, have you found it difficult not allowing that character to in some way reflect your own personality? Have you ever, in moments of despair, vowed to find an unusual name in the objects (or the writing on them) around you? I recently found a receipt in my purse that helped me out! Lastly, have you ever resorted to an online name generator? I can’t bring myself to do that as it somehow then feels to me like I haven’t come up with the character at all. But that’s just me! I have researched names that would be suitable to the region and the period in history, given that I write historical fiction. A Shania or Keyhon would not sit well in the middle of Victorian London, but that is a bit different I suppose! #character names popular characters writing author fiction questions discuss thoughts experience sharing ideas

Don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter by visiting http://www.supportindieauthors.com/subscribe/ Sincerely, Ann Livi Andrews *Riley stole this from GG because everyone asks this question.* Bookwhack: Think about bookwhack as bird droppings. Everyone is having a picnic. The sun is shining. The food is good. The conversation is flowing. Then, suddenly a bird flies down and leaves a dropping, ruining the day for everyone. Bookwhacking is doing the same with your book. Going into threads and dropping your book name or cover or blurb without being invited to do so. You fly over, drop the bomb. and leave. Sometimes you stay to add a short comment but the sole purpose of it is to make people think you actually had something to say. In other words, it's finding any reason to push your book in the face of people who were not expecting it.
