Regular readers of my blog will know that I am very irregular with my posting schedule. It’s not that I’m too busy to write anything, it’s just that I write stuff, forget about it, then it’s old news. Or I have a great idea for a ranty post but then think better of it, so I don’t write anything.
Anyway, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how I want my books to spread by word-of-mouth from readers who love my work. I realised that I am also a reader, and therefore I should be spreading the word on authors and books I love so anyone who’s interested can check them out for themselves.
Spread the love I say.
With that in mind, and having discovered some pretty awesome writers and books over the last 18 months that I’ve had my kindle, I’ve decided to do a series of posts on those books and authors I think deserve a little bloggy love.
My intention is to post these monthly, but we’ll see how we go.
First cab off the rank is one of my new favourite lesbian romance authors, Layce Gardner. That post is ready and raring to go, and will go up on the 1st of July.
Other authors I’ll be posting about will include Hugh Howey (he of the Wool phenomenon), JA Konrath, Lindsay Buroker and John Scalzi.
There will be others as I continue to read and go back over my “Read” list on my kindle.
There’s a pretty eclectic mix of genres, so not everyone will like all the books or all the authors I recommend. The great thing about the kindle, though, is that you get to download a sample and then can buy it if you like it, or ditch it if you don’t.
I’m also open to suggestions, so feel free to drop me an email or a comment on the blog.
