Hello. How are you? I would appreciate to switch comments and feedback with you! Would you be able to do the same? If you want to read the rest of the book....it is finished and on Kindle and paperback on Amazon.com. Proceeds are going to mental health facilities and burn survivors. Would you support? I am so blessed to be able to help others with my story. I hope I will be able to stop even just one person from doing something drastic like I did. I will put your book on my wl and comment:) and even back your book. Hope for it in return? God bless:)! Bethany

Thanks so much for your lovely praise for "Bitches", Brandt, and for backing it! Hope you enjoy the rest of it!

Thank you for taking the time out to back The Living Near Dead.
Much appreciated.

Hi Brandt, thank you for backing my book. I have put, Pax Apocalypse, on my list to read. However, I have had a quick look at it, and liked it enough to put it on my shelf until I have time to assess it. I am struggling at the moment, to write the end of my story, and edit it. Furthermore, my reading list is growing. Anyway, thanks for your time and interest. Kind regards, Kylla.

Thanks for putting my book on your shelf.

Congrats on doing so well with your books JJ and thank you for backing SECRET LIVES. Hope it entertains. Best wishes. Julie

Thanks so much for your support of The Sea Siren. I appreciate it more than I can say.

Hello Brandt,

Hope you are well. Maybe you would like to try out my new satire, Doghouse Blues. Here is an endorsement:

I was attracted to Doghouse Blues from the pitch alone because it was so very different. There are so many budding writers out there who want to earn the same sort of money as J K Rowling by writing exactly the same kind of book and , to be frank, I am getting a bit tired of it.
This, on the other hand, struck me as being an original piece of work. The product of a lively mind and written by someone who is an excellent observer of the real world out there and who knows how to translate his observations into print. Just the right amount of dialogue, which carries the story along well.
I have not read the complete book (yet) but have dipped into it fairly freely to see if the momentum is maintained. It certainly is.
Philip John

Looking forward to reading your comments on the Doghouse Blues webpage.

All the best,

Clive

Hello, how are you today? :)

As we're almost at the end of the month, please allow me to introduce a middle grade book that you or your child might enjoy reading. It's a fun, simplistic read titled LEO & ROVER: THE PURPLE MARBLE ADVENTURES.

I hope you could find time to take a look. Many have enjoyed reading it, and I hope you do, too! My boys will appreciate all support: read, comment, rate, back the book.

I sincerely thank you for your time and hope the best for your book.


Cheers,
D

Hi,

Would you consider a read swap with my novel 'The Divide'? I always return reads :)

Thanks

Serena

How about doing a read ans comment swap?

Hi,

When you have time come by and visit Finger Bones! And if you want to place it on your shelf, I do not mind. :)

Hi there – sorry to bother but I am seriously seeking some advice.

I have been on the site for a few days now and have re-written the first couple of chapters of my book according to the tons of advice received so far…My name is Craig Zerf and I currently have 2 books with my agent, Ian Drury of Sheil Land agencies. The first novel that Ian accepted was not taken up by any publishers despite having been very favourably reviewed by 2 best selling authors; Michael Marshall (The Straw Men, The Intruders, The Lonely Dead) who said that it was one of the best books that he had read in recent years, and Meg Rosoff (How I Live Now, Just In Case) who said "I think that you are a fantastic writer. The story is tragic and blood-curdling and extraordinary."

It’s very frustrating so I have opted to put it out here and try my hardest to get some unbiased advice. I would really appreciate it if you could take a look at my script (or even just the first chapter or so) and tell me what you think. Thanks ever so much – Craig (Zuffles).
THE BROKEN MEN - The best of boyhood friends, Leon and Pete, grow up in South Africa during the hatred and turmoil of the Apartheid era. Like every other white male between the ages of sixteen and sixty-five they are conscripted into the army in order to fight for the continuance of the white regime.
In this maelstrom of Apartheid and war the two friends become the most deadly of enemies. Together they are drawn into a path of death, violence and brutality that spans the oceans from Southern Africa to the United Kingdom

Hello Mr. Miles,

In the past you were kind enough to back “An Unfinished Innocence”. It is currently ranked around #10. I appreciate your previous support and hope you will kind enough to help me in the final stretch by providing further backing or stars.

Thank you for being a good reader!

All the best,

Hi there - just extending the ink-stained hand of friendship.

I've been on-site for a little while now, and I've found it to be an extremely constructive and rewarding experience. The range of writing and subjects available here seems to cover a broad spectrum of styles and ability, but it does pay to have a thick skin - some of those critics can be pretty fierce!

Backing books, making friends, commenting where you can – that seems to be the way to raise the profile, so here I am.

I'm usually around, so it would be fantastic to hear from you.

Anyway, happy writing, reading or whatever it is you’re doing today...

All the best, have a great day – Cas

PS: If you do happen to get the uncontrollable urge to look at either of my books, here are the links

http://authonomy.com/books/42586/slow-poison/
http://www.authonomy.com/books/42590/bloodstones/

Slow Poison is dark and brutal, Bloodstones is a gentler read, but gets tougher as the story progresses. A little like Larsson, Welsh, Niffenegger I have been told. (…but I haven’t read any of their work yet…so you’ll have to be the judge of that…)

Warning: both of my books contain explicit sexual acts, frequent swearing and disturbing scenes of violence. Please do not read if you are of a sensitive nature or under age in your territory.

Hi Brandt,

“Informers and blackmailers, phrenologists and dissectionists, lowlifes and murderers in early Victorian Dublin.”

I’d really appreciate it if you could have a look at the start of my first novel, The Morning Drop.

I’m happy to return the read.

Cheers,
Andrew.

Thank you for backing "Fear and Greed!"

Hi there.. hope you're good
I'm sending you on a note I put on the forum,
which may be of interest.
all the best.. mike

'The Free' is an odd case here, since it was published first in 1986, by the class-less Hooligan Press.
I uploaded to Authonomy while rewriting on the request of a small publisher, and got a flood of useful comments (1358 so far!), but failed to reach GOLDSTARGLORY (it did get to rank 7 twice under the old system).

So I had a publisher already, but he pulled out, saying it was too long and un-commercial.
When I got over my shattered ego I finished the rewrite and published it as a free Ebook, with a 'Wordmess' blog where you can read it online thefreeonline.wordpress.com plus a 'Farcebook' page where it has almost 2000 'friends'.

Finally a year later I've put the latest 2012 edition on Createspace as a real dead tree book, and had a few sales already. http://www.amazon.com/Free-schoolgirl-herself-explosive-revolution/dp/1466409320/ref=pd_rhf_se_p_t_3
The epub edition for android is also free from the blog, but for Kindle you have to pay.

So that's it.. I did it backwards,, and now I'm back to planting potatoes
Best luck to ALL fellow writers here!!!!!
mike
