Becket Morgan (becketmorgan) | 7 comments Hello all! Just wanted to let you know about the YA Authors and Bloggers Network group here in GoodReads, designed to help bridge the gap between YA authors and those of us that read and review their work on our blogs! Feel free to join up if you'd like (it's an open group). Thanks!!

Rebecca Burke | 17 comments Is it part of the YA Fiction group or a separate group? I'm a YA author and soon-to-be blogger so would like to hear more.

Becket Morgan (becketmorgan) | 7 comments It's a separate group in GoodReads called YA Authors and Bloggers Network. It's super new so there aren't many members yet, but the intent is to provide a place for adult bloggers and writers of YA fiction to discuss books and also write and share reviews of new books :) You should definitely check it out.

Fran Veal (franveal) | 6 comments I'm following you, too, by the way. I love your new site. I'll stop at that. I gushed enough in the comment I added to today's blog post. My header is a panoramic photo my hubby took last year on Christmas in Pigeon Forge, TN. He's a wonderful photographer.

Hello Fran!

Are you still looking to review books? My name is C.E. Wilson and I have recently published a YA Paranormal Romance book titled Oath of Servitude: http://www.amazon.com/Oath-Servitude-...

Does this sound like something you would be interested in? It's about a human named Teague and a pixi named Teague and the struggles they have to maintain their friendship.

If you're interested, please shoot me an email to cewilsonya28@gmail.com so we can talk!!

Have a wonderful evening and I look forward to hearing back from you!

C.E. Wilson

I would love followers! It's a new blog so any advice would also be appreciated. Thanks!

Jennifer Lane (jenniferlane) | 51 comments Hi Tara, I didn't see a place for followers with Google Friends Connect on your blog?

Also, I find that breaking up your reviews into small paragraphs make them easier to read online.

Some YA blogs I follow that do this well are:

http://supernaturalsnark.blogspot.com
http://refractedlightreviews.com

Good luck with your blog!

I've changed the template so that it is easier to find the follow button. In the one I had before, you needed to scroll to the right hand side and it would pop up. :)

I have two blogs, one that kinda gets in my head as well as my co author's about diversity in YA, science fiction and Fantasy and how we'd like to see more of it.We also review books on here mostly YA and fantasy but right now we're new so we're taking submissions from every genre.We just prefer diverse and multicultural fiction but not picky.I would be glad to introduce other themes as well. If seeing diverse characters in books is important to anyone, please don't hesitate to join. :)

This one is more like the steps we're taking to make our indie book the best it can be and tips on how to consider every possibility deciding the self publishing route. If any aspiring authors aren't really sure one what outlets are out there when you publish independently link up to our blog and we hope to share what we're doing and still doing to try to get our book in as many heads as possible :)

Anyone interested in either topic , be sure to follow and let me know I'll be glad to follow back!
