Are you kidding?

You sound very serious!!!

I'm glad she said it

Question:
Is this group interested in mysteries in which each mystery is set in a different country with a large focus on helping the reader to feel he/she is travelling to that country? I myself love to travel through reading....but I have to say I particularly love a good mystery which also takes me travelling.

Sure. I love traveling. Maybe this will help me enjoy mysteries more

Hello! Thank you for this encouraging discussion! I am a new author and new goodreads member and am figuring out how this (book discussion and promotion) works. It was great to see your comment from 2011: "We LOVE authors..." and I can't wait to dive in to learn more. I write books about Patagonia, South America and my new book is set in Argentina. Looking forward to reading what others suggest in these forums! Happy New Year!

I have returned to California after having lived in Southeast Asia for 30+ years. I have completed my debut novel.The settings in the novel CHINA SEA are the USA, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. An exciting true-to-life spy thriller. To be published in June 2015. I'd like to share updates and excerpts from the book with you. My author page is facebook.com/SASwafford

HI, I have recently published a book about Zanzibar, Tanzania. It covers the history of the island in telling the story of two women, one Arab Zanzibari and the other English Colonial. It starts during the revolution of 1964. I hope that you might find this interesting - a portal into a part of the world that is seldom written about in any serious way.

How do you define post colonial literature? Is it the author, the location or the themes that makes a work post colonial? Not being funny, genuinely interested.

I have two new books out about Mexico: the nonfiction Hidden Dangers from Sunbury Press and Where Gringos Don't Belong from Anaphora Press. Info about them available on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Where-Gringos-B... and http://www.mexicoindanger.com. I'll be pleased to hear from you concerning them.

No More Secrets No More Lies If you want to travel from London to Rome, to Aberdeen in Scotland and on to exotic Malaysia all in one novel this is the book for you. Not only do the descriptions of the places leave you feeling as if you have really been there, but there is romance, mystery and a little bit of murder thrown in.

Good Afternoon I'm looking for some people interested in a non-fiction exploration of humanity as told through different towers around the world. Please let me know if you are interested in a free copy in exchange for an honest review please let me know.
All the best

Hey guys. New to the group but looking forward to diving in. I've have two travel memoirs published, both set in Asia: Dispatches from the Peninsula: Six Years in South Korea and The Worst Motorcycle in Laos: Rough Travels in Asia The books have been well-received and well-reviewed overall, though I'm always looking to get more eyes on them. I'm stoked to read peoples' recommendations as well. Cheers.

Hello all! So glad I found this part of the discussion group, as I am new (both as an author and group member), and still finding my way around!
I have just published my first historical fiction book, When the Lion Roars, about a group of teenagers from a backwoods country setting embarking on a secret mission to a clandestine military base and traveling thousands of years back in time, where they have a great adventure and meet a host of individuals from centurions, shepherds and apostles to gladiators, villains, and a few other special characters! Hope that you may find this interesting! It is geared towards young adults, but it's also my hope that anyone can read it and enjoy being pulled into an ancient world of far away places full of adventure, color, humor and delectable ethnic foods...and hopefully learn some new things as well!(Like I said, that's my hope!)
I am currently working on the sequel, and am also available to review other authors' works ... feel free to contact me on my author page here on goodreads!
All the best!
(Hope I put this posting in the right spot!)

Hi,
I'm T.L. Jones. I am an author of "Peter and the Band of Pirates," which the Kindle Edition has just been published. I too love to "travel through reading" and my character Peter loves to read for just that reason, to "travel to the far reaches of world." In the story Peter and readers travel to and sail throughout the West Indies and are introduced to the Arawak/Tiano Indians. "Peter and the Band of Pirates" is a Peter Pan origin story, before Neverland, before magic, when he is just an ordinary boy who loves to explore and discover the world around him. There is a hint of magic, here and there, but the story is focused on a quest that involves a treasure hunt. My most recent reading is the Harry Potter series, which is great reading. I look forward to reading recommendations from the group. I did read recently an excerpt from "The Shell Collector" and want to read that book as it takes readers to many different world locations.

Greetings from the Land of the Pharaohs!

I'm Amira; academic dean by day, writer by night :) So, my Dad is a retired diplomat which offered me the most amazing childhood, as far as travelling is concerned.

I was born in N'Djamena, Chad and grew up between Japan, Norway, New York, Belgium and Egypt. In my experience, traveling really does bridge the gap between minds and hearts.

On the author end, I've flirted with a few new takes on memoirs and poetry. However, as far as this group is concerned, I really hope you guys would consider reading "The Ankhs: Red Marks the Child" when it comes to selections from Africa and the Middle East.

It's set in Ancient Egypt.... so I'll be taking you on a journey between time and space.... hahahahah! But the treasure of it is this: I, myself, am Egyptian. And after years of traveling the world with my father, I came back home to re-acquaint myself with a country I didn't know or understand.

It took me a while; a few years, in fact! But, I only really understood Egypt when I started looking beyond the grit and grime of it. I mingled with the general mass public which were very different in comparison with the foreign dignitaries I grew up with, as a child. They were the salt of the Earth.... and I fell in love.

Today, I live, work, and write in Cairo, Egypt. This novella is tribute to the wondrous ancient past that flows passionately through my veins. I hope that as you read, you'll be able to feel the cool Nile, taste the hot desert and revel in the glare of the great Sun, itself!

Thanks for posting this. I'm an author also, and I can't help but be annoyed when others write pseudo-comments that are nothing more than veiled sales pitches. Goddess save us! Who do they think they're kidding? I make sure to NEVER look up their books.

Stay tuned ... Once a month, things happen in the life of a young schizophrenic!

Hmm. I write, too, but it seems as if this thread is not supposed to be used for self-promotion.

“Unsuitable Boys!” by Terrence Perera

Excited to announce that my new novel, “Unsuitable Boys!” based in Sri Lanka, is now available on Amazon.
The novel commences as a delightful romantic comedy of errors where parents choose the wrong boys for their daughters and where the concept of arranged marriages in Sri Lanka is explored. Further, as a foil to these innocent young loves, there is the sordid affair of the uncle.
Nevertheless, the story takes a tragic turn when one parent, a powerful political figure, decides to terminate his daughter’s love affair by terminating the life of her lover!
The novel takes place in that sad period in Sri Lanka’s history where a “psychosis of fear” pervaded the country and disappearances, killings and abduction by “white vans” were the order of the day. https://www.amazon.com/author/terrenc...

Hi All,

My book titled America Deconstructed is a short story collection about immigrants who have moved from around the world to America. We have stories by people who moved from Africa, India, Afghanistan, Europe, and Asia. We explore the embarrassments and humor from cultural differences and along the way the book covers several topics such as Taliban, love, war, romance, children, marriage and everything in between. These are true stories of the people interviewed for the book.

If interested please inbox me, and I can send you the pre-order link.

Hope to hear from you soon.

“Seated on a panel with her fellow writers, Maltese-Serbian novelist Nataša Pantović has been known to use slam poetry to perform her poetic body of work.
Like her prose, the improvised words, tribal music, percussionist sounds, lengthy ‘aum’ chanting, are neither too preposterous nor too earnest but endlessly curious. A bridge builder between East and West, following ancient archaeological findings, she often dives into historic settings more than 2,000 years back in time.
In her novel, Ama: Playing the Glass Bead Game with Pythagoras, the 52-year-old author makes a bold swerve into less-travelled territory. She chooses for her protagonists  Ama, an African priestess, living in China’s Macao in the 17th century; Ruben, a Portuguese Jesuit priest; and Fr Benedict, an Orthodox Christian.”

I could not believe my eyes! 2 days ago, a news agency from Macau (where my novel #Ama is set) have seen the Sunday Time's #Article #review "A beautiful mind", and has issued another article, book review in #Portuguese... https://pontofinalmacau.wordpress.com... Wow! Totally impressed!
“A-Ma: Alchemy of Love”, uma narrativa passada em Macau sobre “a busca pela verdade”
"Alchemy of Love”, um livro cuja acção se passa na Macau do século XVII. Agora, em entrevista ao jornal Times of Malta, a autora, Nataša Pantović, explica que o romance “é sobre a busca pela verdade”. A história tem como protagonista Ama, uma sacerdotisa africana.
Nataša Pantović escolheu como cenário para “A-Ma: Alchemy of Love” a Macau do século XVII e colocou como protagonistas Ama, uma sacerdotisa africana a morar na região, Ruben, um padre jesuíta português e Benedito, um cristão ortodoxo. Ama reunia artistas, pregadores, padres e filósofos de todo o mundo, dentro dos cenários mágicos do seu café. O livro explora o crescimento rápido de Macau, quer nos horizontes das cidades, quer nas mudanças socioeconómicas."

Hi. I would like to thank you for accepting me and giving me the chance to introduce my new book about my travels around the world.

My name is Nikos Dimitriou and recently I published an eBook about what I am actually doing the last 5 years. Typically, I am travelling non-stop in a vehicle but basically I am traveliving.

So, the book is about traveliving, a term which I coined after so long time in the roads of Europe, Africa and America that literally involves long-time, slow travel as well as surviving on the road.

For the first time, a book of this kind summarizes all the aspects of how to shape your dream of travelling around the world, find the courage to quit everything, get meticulously prepared for such an adventure as well as survive on the road emotionally & financially. Additionally, my only objective in writing this book is to make my small contribution to the long-standing travellers community.

I you are interested, please send me a pm, so I can forward to you all related info.

Hope to hear from you soon ;-)

Nikos Dimitriou

I thought there was a special place for authors to promote their work, perhaps under the country/countries they transport their readers to. Where is it? Are there any other authors writing about Israel or Portugal in this group?

I am new to goodreads and the vast knowledge and opportunity it has for authors and readers alike. My name is Ash,I am here representing Mr Edward Jones Whitehead who is 95 next month, July. I have recently took on the task of copying the memoirs of his life as a merchant seaman in WWII, and getting them published on createspace and Kindle.

Keep up the good work.

Hi Ruth,

So glad to see someone mention Portugal! Indeed, my first nonfiction thriller, INTO THE LION'S MOUTH, was set largely in Portugal as Lisbon (Madrid, too) was the key hub of espionage during WWII. It's a fabulous country and my book was purchased by the Portuguese publisher, Editora 20/20 (the Portuguese edition is shown here on Goodreads).

They were SO nice to work with, and had me in for four days of media events. It was an instant bestseller there, and Editora has already purchase Portugal rights for my next book, CODE NAME: LISE.

I can't wait to return to that beautiful country and see even more!

Hello everyone! I write in a strange genre, nonfiction thrillers, but the exciting part is that because the sub-genre is WWII espionage, my stories take place all over the world: Lisbon, London, Paris, New York, Rio de Janiero, Berlin, Amsterdam, Cannes, Marseille, Cherbourg, Gibraltar, Madrid .... even the French and Italian Alps!

Look forward to traveling with you!

Cheers,
Larry Loftis

The Lobster Lake Bandits: Mystery at Moosehead

Hello to you! I am Ann from Ukraine who wrote a book about my country! I invite all of you to have a look at my book and let me know what you think of it.

Greetings Fellow World Lit Travelers!

I am seeking reviews of my raucous expat memoir The Mexico Diaries: A Sustainable Adventure, rated 4.48 on Goodreads, and 4.7 on Amazon/kindle, with more than 70 total ratings!

The Mexico Diaries is about my wife and I trading in our upscale New England existence to pursue a life a hippie homesteading in rural Mexico. In addition to the scores of outrageous animal episodes, entertaining tales of life at the nexus of Americano and Mexicano culture, and a colorful cast of outlandish characters, The Mexico Diaries is, first and foremost, a story about re-inventing life, and rolling with the consequences.

Tony Cohan, Author of the NTY’s Best Seller ‘On Mexican Time’, and winner of the Literary Guild Award calls it “As lively and engaging an account of reimagining life as you’ll encounter, replete with goat wrangling, narcos, scorpions, and a rollicking cast of characters…”

Surviving Mexico .com/Book Reviews wrote: “A whirlwind Mexican journey to sustainability and beyond. A read in a million and one you won’t want to miss!”

Underratedreads.com says: There are a few books I’ve read that have had this effect on me. I look forward to my reading time, usually nap time or bedtime, because the book is there waiting for me. And, as I near the end of the book, I begin to feel sad because I know I will soon be saying good-bye to it.

This book will appeal to anyone hankering for an over-the-top, real life adventure! I hope that you'll sign on for this memorable ride!

Greetings All,

My name's Vinnie Apicella. I'm happy to be part of this group and appreciate the opportunities available to us here on Goodreads.

I'm a teacher, writer, and entrepreneur living in Beijing for the past several years. I'm pleased to share, I've recently become an official author self-publishing my first book, Escape from America: An Introspective Journey from America into China...



Would love to connect with others, and am happy to accept review requests from anyone interested. In spite of the title, you don't need to be Chinese, American, or have interest in either country to gain something of value.

My “story within a story” is one that I believe can encourage you, whatever your background, and no matter where you are in life, to pursue your passions and keep pushing forward, even when the deck seems stacked against you.

Cheers guys, I look forward to interacting here in our group!

The economic Key solution for universe dilemmas “The Fourth Way: A Comprehensive Humanitarian Economic System to Save the World” By Canadian author Dr. A. Joseph Keryo

Hello there! My name is Patrick, and I am an older gentleman who is brand-new to Goodreads and essentially fumbling around, trying to figure out how to make things work, and this very large group seems like a wonderfully diverse collective of inquisitive souls to connect with.

The main thing I have to say about my authorship is that I've taken down the first volume of the literary historical mystery trilogy--it contains multiple timelines/narratives--I self-published in 2014 on Amazon while I finish the substantial edits I've made to it, which I'm hoping to get converted, designed and back online (along with my website, which is pathetically obsolete) within the next six to twelve months. (The other two volumes are completed and largely edited, but unpublished.) In the meantime I'm looking forward to hearing what people here are reading. Sadly, I've never traveled anywhere farther/more foreign than Hawaii (though I lived there over two years).

Literary and experimental fiction, philosophy, poetry, and history/nonfiction are my biggest passions. I have odd, decidedly non-mainstream tastes. The greatest novel I've ever read (now three times) is Nightwood by Djuna Barnes; my favorite philosophical work is Anti-Oedipus/Thousand Plateaus by Gilles Deleuze/Felix Guattari, and my favorite historical novel (which I've posted a review on here at Goodreads), is Marguerite Yourcenar's Memoirs of Hadrian. Perhaps that gives a flavor of how my own tastes run. I am presently reading, along with a couple other things, the second volume of Will Durant's Story of Civilization, and have ambitions of reading the entire series.

In my youth I read voraciously and wrote little; now, with long hours at my job, our young children, and my seemingly constant writing and editing when neither of those other activities are happening, I seem to have by comparison far less time for reading than I’d rather. (Sad emoji.)

Thank you for accepting me into your lovely community! I look forward to many inspiring connections and cross-pollinations of interests!

Please let me know if there is anything missing or that I need to provide beyond what I've stated here.

The Fire of Karma

I have two books I would like to promote on this site. The first is a YA Novel in the category of Historical Fiction, set during the early 1940s.

I have another book that talks about my own teen years, though made for adults called Through The Withering Storm. It speaks of my days as a military cadet, a young pilot, a traveller, an adventurer and a person with a mental health disability. If this interests you, please make note of the title because I hope to have giveaways for both of these books soon. I also love to blog and mentor other writers, so please feel free to contact me or find out more information about my writing from www.edmontonwriter.com

Hi all. I want to tell a story, the birth of a written work. The idea of writing this novel began in 2010, when we had an alumni reunion of '82, Medan Junior High School. At that time, my classmates encouraged me to tell about the good times we had in middle school. Moreover, from that meeting, I saw not a few friends who have become successful people.
Then, I searched my memories about our background and struggles in middle school. Most of us are descendants of commoners, laborers, and coolies who only have big dreams. Likewise the spirit, our teachers who lead us to the level of success and become people in their respective fields.
Finally, I also uncovered the SECRET of How to Open a Dream in a story of our journey. Readers, of course, want to know how we can uncover the Secret to Dreaming, right? How to uncover the basics and steps to achieve a dream? Do you want to know how we can maximize the potential of intelligence and opportunities to be optimal and achieve?

For that, please refer to the story raised below.

This story is inspired by the experiences of the characters. Who wants to be called a coolie mentality? Moreover, it is said that the descendants of the poor, poor blood? Therefore, Enda Kiebo wants to prove that he is not one of them. He worked hard to get to school and wanted to be a smart person. However, the problem was that from the start he had faced Benhart, the son of a Plantation Administrator who didn't want Enda Kiebo to go to school with him. Moreover, Benhart has a vicious bouncer like Ronggur, the "Conqueror" who continues to terrorize Enda Kiebo. Fortunately, Enda Kiebo has a true friend. They also fought together against the terror of Benhart Cs, Ronggur, and Mr. Beresman, the puppet.
Another luck, Enda Kiebo has an extraordinary teacher who is able to burn the soul and give super genius knowledge that is second to none in the world to achieve dreams. Through these teachers, Enda Kiebo tries hard to uncover the secret of how to become a genius child.

How, did Enda Kiebo overcome the obstacles of Benhart Cs, Mr. Beresman and Ronggur the “Conqueror”? How do these extraordinary teachers galvanize their students to master the super-genius science that is second to none in the world? Did Enda Kiebo and his friends really achieve their dreams in real life? To know the answer, let's read this novel to the end. Guaranteed this novel gives a lot of inspiration that is second to none in the world!!!

The Adventurous Nun: Stories My Family Told Me: Biography of Sister Mildred Lungile Madlala

Hi there, I am a new South African author who has written a rather interesting, emotional stirring and informative biography about a religious Sister who stayed in 10 different countries.

About the book:-

About the Book (long version)

The Adventurous Nun – Stories my family told me is a comprehensive biography of Sister Mildred Lungile Madlala, a Franciscan Missionary of Mary (FMM), born on Mistake Farm, KwaZulu-Natal south coast, South Africa. As a Sister, a nun, a Franciscan Missionary of Mary, she dedicated her whole life to God until the end. She wanted to tell her story to inspire, teach and motivate others. This book is written for anyone in the world, including people who do not belong to the Roman Catholic Church.
As a FMM, Sister Mildred worked and met people in many different countries including South Africa, Congo, Kenya, Mauritius, France, Upper Volta (Burkina Faso), Italy, Switzerland, England and Madagascar. She was a teacher by profession, and an interpreter as she was fluent in English, French and Swahili, and could converse in Italian, with isiZulu being her mother tongue. This biography is thus available in French, Swahili, and, importantly, in isiZulu, because she believed in communicating to people in their mother tongue.
Sister Mildred attended school at St Francis College Mariannhill with the late liberation struggle icon Steve Biko. In later life she wholeheartedly followed her calling as a nun which she first felt when she was just eight years old. Over the years she met and engaged with Pope John Paul II and Cardinal Otunga, and slept in the home of Mary of the Passion. Her adventurous journey with Jesus was not without danger, though; she was followed by a lion in Kenya, and survived the civil war in Zaire before finally succumbing to Covid-19 in Madagascar.
Although she didn’t spend much time with them, Sister Mildred’s love for her blood relatives never diminished. Throughout the book tales are woven of family interactions, to preserve the history of this family which produced such an extraordinary woman.
Practically, the book explains what a nun is as well as the work that nuns are involved in. When Sister Mildred was in Rome, she wrote about her life in the form of poems which are published here. In the book, she also shares lessons that she learnt throughout her journey.
It’s a stirring story of a woman’s passion for Jesus, but most of all for her passion to serve His people to the very best of her ability. Sister Mildred did this with alacrity until the very end.
