Hoping to attract readers who enjoy women’s fiction, I’ve set up a new Goodreads group.  Authors writing women’s fiction (not erotica or mysteries please) can add their books.  Here’s a link below to the group, which now has 32 members:

https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/179161-women-s-fiction-for-authors-and-readers

In case you’re not sure whether your book fits this category, I’ve copied and pasted the Google definition below:

Women’s fiction is an umbrella term for women centered books that focus on women’s life experience that are marketed to female readers, and includes many mainstream novels.

I have also added more definitions of women’s fiction below:

Not heavily centred on erotica or romance.

Focused mainly on family relationships.

Deeper characterisation.

Focused on women’s empowerment and women’s issues.

Generational sagas.

—————————————————————————————————-

Does your book fit this genre?  If you add your book (s), there is space to write a little promotional feature about why they have been added.  I look forward to discovering many more women’s…

What made you choose the genre you write? 

Chris Lange 

Fantasy romance is my favorite genre because magic allows me to give free rein to my imagination.

Leanore Elliott

I write various genres of romance. I am a romantic, down to my toes.
Jennifer Theriot

I love reading romance – always have. After I finished the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy, back in 2012, I wished there were books available with older main characters – you know ? Women over thirty.  Most of the romance I’d read  was about twenty something main characters. Over drinks and dinner one night, two of my friends actually dared me to write a book about middle aged lovers.  Those who know me will attest to the fact that if you dare me, I’ll do it !
Maggie Nash

I write in a few genres, and I write what I like to read
Morticia Knight

The freedom to express my stories however I wanted.

Sandy Wolters

In paranormal romance, anything is possible.  The storylines are only limited by the author’s imagination.

Sexy Six Authors Q&A #1:How do you promote your work?

After several months of silence at the monthly interview section, we’ve finally managed to resume the Q & A session, featuring authors that you definitely need to get to know a little bit more.

It’s a pleasure to interview the six sexy authors from the Sexy Six team. A warm welcome to our blog and we hope that you’ve enjoyed the interview session with us.

We’ve asked them a few questions and the answers for each question from all six of them will be published as a series. Let’s check out question #1

How do you promote your work?

Chris Lange 

Facebook and Twitter, sometimes Goodreads.

Leanore Elliott

Mostly Facebook and Guesting at 4 FB parties a month. In my early days, I did 6 blogspots a month for 2 straight years.

Jennifer Theriot

Social media ! Lately, I’ve found Twitter to be a great avenue. Of course, the traditional promotional sites like Robin Reads, The Midlist, and Book Bub are great as well.

Maggie Nash

I generally promote on Facebook, Twitter, Offer ARCs on Goodreads, and sometimes do blog posts on my friends blogs.

Morticia Knight

I use a combination of social media, blog posts, ads and attending author signing/book conventions. I don’t believe in pushing my book down everyone’s throat. I try to belong to groups on social media that are like-minded and also support fellow authors. It’s really a great community of people.

Sandy Wolters

Social Media, Blogs, Giveaways.

I started writing paranormal romance relatively late in life. I was fifty-years old when I published my first book. Many would ask why it took so long to start a writing career and I really only have one answer: Life experiences finally brought me to the place where I felt I had something to offer.

The romantic influence of my writing career came easily because I married my high school sweetheart, and we’ve been together ever since. I thank the stars above for my loving husband every day of my life. I’m living the romantic dream, people, with the man I was destined to be with, and it feels wonderful! Every romance I write, he is right there in the forefront of my mind.

I have written six paranormal romance books with another to be released soon. Two of my books have won first place awards from the Paranormal Romance Guild, and my Rock Star Series has received first place recognition in its category as well.

4) short bio, book cover and Amazon site

Author Morticia Knight spends most of her nights writing about men loving men forever after. If there happens to be some friendly bondage or floggings involved, she doesn’t begrudge her characters whatever their filthy little heart’s desire. Even though she’s been crafting her naughty tales for more years than she’d like to share – her adventures as a published author began in 2011. Once upon a time she was the lead singer in an indie rock band that toured the West Coast and charted on U.S. college radio. She currently resides on the northern Oregon coast and when she’s not fantasizing about hot men she takes walks along the ocean and annoys the local Karaoke bar patrons.

3) short bio, book cover and website.

I’m Maggie Nash and I write romance novels. Some of them are suspenseful, some are pretty hot, and some of them are a little bit kinky, but what they all have in common is a fun, romantic ending.

I started writing more by accident than design when one day I ran out of books to read so I started writing one myself. And boy am I glad I did, because writing has become a huge part of my life.

I live with my family on the beautiful south coast of New South Wales in Australia. You can find me most days having a cappuccino at the beach!
