They are mostly either students or teachers, all of whom obey the Headmistress. Oh... did I mention that they are also all characters from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland...? There are no OCs in this group; once the characters have been claimed, this group will become secret.

[close] (This is a rp group) The commerce capital of the free world, New York City has some very interesting places- and some very interesting people. Do you see that man with crazy, greying hair, dressed in a suit and running across Lincoln Center? That's Ludwig van Beethoven, currently the conductor at the Metropolitan Opera House. And do you see the college professor with the pin of a knight and an age-old manuscript under his arm? That's Giuliano de' Medici, who was assassinated in 1478. All of these people should be dead, but how are they alive? It's your turn to add someone to the mix... Follow the Mod's Pinterest Page!

[close] I began this group in January 2015 to support fellow indie authors by featuring them on my website blog.

This is how Support for Indie Authors can be the Ultimate Self Publishing Resource and Indie Author Support Group. Please take a moment to read through our Read Me Topics under each Folder Category in order to get a better grasp of our guidelines and where you should you post your questions/comments/etc. Thank you all and Welcome to Support for Indie Authors! 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.
