[close] Welcome to It's Personal: a collective gathering of souls, each equipped with their own thoughts, desires, fears, dreams, and secrets. It’s Personal is an outlet of sorts: a place to rant, rave, create, share, fill with gifs, quotes, poems, writing and things that are…well, for lack of a better term, personal. So have at it, create a thread and fill it with whatever. In this world, you might just find you have more in common with others than you thought.

[close] If you love horror literature, movies, and culture, you're in the right place. Whether it's vampires, werewolves, zombies, serial killers, plagues, or the Old Ones, you'll find plenty of great discussions and recommendations at HA.

[close] "For Indians /non Indians/Earthlings/Aliens, who have a zeal to read and are passionate about books" says the Creator of this group :) To add to it, this group is for just about any gentle, non-argumentative soul who is interested in anything Indian. Make sure you bring along a good sense of humor ;) and a broad mind. This is a democratic group,that wants to discuss books, make friends and basically just have fun. Moderators are here just to do some dirty jobs, so feel free to suggest any ideas you might have to improve this group. We started off as an open group, but then seemed to attract all sorts of rude, abusive disruptive elements. So with great deliberations we decided to make it a private group attempting to screen in those who are genuinely interested, and not those who join for promoting their work by hook or by crook, and those who are bent upon stalking vulnerable individuals. Accepting you here shows our trust in you, and you may reciprocate being an active, friendly member ;-) We are a peace loving group and would like to stay that way! Authors are welcome, but please try to stick to the "promotions" folder if you want to promote your book. If you are interested in answering questions about the creative process of writing and the anxious experience of publishing , there is a separate thread for you :) We have a facebook page too! If you know of Book-a-holic Indians who aren't aware of this group, feel free to spread the word by 'like'-ing the page :)

[close] It's a book club.

[close] A place to keep track of and rate our monthly reads.

[close] This is the book club designed for women with busy lives, but still find time for our #1 passion, BOOKS!

[close] Looking for something off the beaten path? This is a great place to start. We are going to be focused on modern books, anything published after 1960, that we feel have not received the love they deserve. We'll be reading one book per month chosen by a poll. Nominations must meet the following criteria: -Published in or after 1960, but at least 6 months old -No more than 3,000 Goodreads ratings -No self-promotion Welcome! I'm excited to have you join us!

[close] "It reminded me of _____ but in space." "I read _____ in high school, and it was the only book I actually liked." "It's like a cross between _____ and _____ with a little Harry Potter thrown in." "YOU'VE NEVER READ _____?!?!!?" You know the drill. Your friends reference it, your husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend/"sort of thing?" raves about it, even your favorite movies quote it, or it IS your favorite movie but you've never read the book. This book club is for those of us for whom, if you're anything like me, one of the following may apply... - we have finally developed a taste for reading and are severely behind on the classics; - we kindaaa, sortaaa, but actually slept through English class in high school and used Sparknotes/Hollywood remakes to supplement our book reports; - we buy a book that everyone is talking about and it just sits on our shelf, and sits there... and sits there; - we've heard the hype and are finally getting around to reading the actual book; - we want to expand our horizons beyond the single genre we usually read and want to do so with some time-tested material; - we just plain old want to get everyone off our backs for not having read _____. Every month we'll choose two books to read: 1) a classic (that everyone has probably read but us) 2) a "modern" classic or just a really popular book that is likely already on our to-read list but we haven't gotten around to it yet. Even if you've already read these books, re-readers are HIGHLY encouraged to help the rest of us amateurs navigate the best (or worst) of the best-sellers. Come one, come all!

[close] I began this group in January 2015 to support fellow indie authors by featuring them on my website blog. Since then it has turned into a great resource of helpful tips, marketing resources, and just overall support for all indie authors.

If you want your books to be read, read other Indie Author books. If you want help, give help in return. 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.
