message 1: by William (new)

William Staub | 42 comments -Is it possible to be common and unique simultaneously? It seems that is both my blessing and my curse. I am a self-published novelist and my books don't quite fit into any one slot or shelf so I am having trouble getting reviews.
-I write Christian/LDS action/adventure thrillers which do not involve devils or demons. My heroes are a mixture of John Wick and Jack Reacher in PG-rated stories. They have difficult but real life challenges and issues which they try to handle without compromising their Christian/LDS standards. They are not inspirational books and are not children's books.
-I realize my books will never hit any best seller lists, but I am determined to write good clean action adventure thrillers without the foul language, nudity, sex, or blood and gore that so many other action adventure books include.
-I am in the enviable position of not needing the income which my books may or may not generate to pay my monthly bills. That does not mean I don't care whether my stories are any good. It means I can continue to write for a select group of readers who will enjoy reading my stories with my characters in the variety of situations which life throws at them, throughout my series of books.
-Where would I go to find someone who is interested in reading/reviewing one of my books so I can start building some credibility?

Kat (katwiththehat) | 2277 comments Hi William! We offer a "clean" round (no sex, profanity or graphic violence) every few months. One is currently running. When that one finishes up, a new one will likely start. Check back in this folder periodically and look for a round that says "now forming" in the thread title.

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/group...

We also have general rounds that start every few weeks. One of those should open soon. In a general round, you may find any sort of book, so your book would certainly be welcome, but as a reader you would need to be prepared to read whatever four books you were assigned.

If you haven't already, please set up your Goodreads author profile that is linked to your books (right now you are posting from a regular user account.)

After you've set up your author profile, you can also participate in the one for one list.

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Choose any book you like from the list, read and review on GR/Amz. After you've posted your review links, your book will be added to the list for someone else to choose. Full instructions are in the first post of the thread.
