Welcome Authors

If you write in this genre, you already know there is a huge shortage in groups and networks for IR authors. We need to band together. I encourage all authors and writers here to share networking advice, anything that pertains to the IR community.

If you know of any online groups or social networks that cater to interracial fiction and Romance, please share here.

You are allowed to post info about your books, post book reviews, share links, anything you'd like. I've created this as a haven for IR/Multicultural authors. You do not have to be an IR writer to be in this group. Everyone is welcome but just know that the purpose of this group is for people who write IR fiction and that's what we will be discussing here.

If you review IR books, please post here. If you have a blog pertaining to IR books or you feature them, please post here.

Welcomes authors of all IR no matter the genre. Crime, Romance, Erotica, Gay & Lesbian, anything.

I ask you all be respectful to one another. Please do not spam other members. Use this board for your promotion but do not use this group as a free for all to spam people.

This group is not for talking about interracial dating or those type of discussions. This is for authors to talk about the genre and to share and network.

Enjoy!

Check out my site. I'll be posting about my upcoming Crime/IR novel from time to time.

Teicha,

You can give free books away too. Rawsistaz and Goodreads will accept free books.  You can give away one or more books. It's up to you. Rawsistaz will review your book for free. Clarion and Kirkus will review for a fee. In addition, don't forget to advertise in your local newspapers and community newspapers. By the way, I read it's not a bad idea to take pizza to the staff where you're signing books.

I recently got a coupon for FB advertising, I was thinking about giving it a try. Since I have a print book now, I'm thinking of arranging a signing at one of the local businesses. I guess I have to get out and actually meet people. Yikess!

I advertise on facebook, but it's difficult to tell if it really works.

Marketing Question - Ladies, is there one avenue that has worked best for you when marketing your works? I love my blog and keep it updated. I'm in a few Yahoo groups and post infrequently. Should I send my work out to reviewers (which scares me)? I'm just at a loss!

Hello All, I'll be hosting Hero Week again this year on my blog and I know it's far, far away but as I'm learning - Time flies! If you'd like to post a character interview with the romantic hero of your choice, please let me know and I'll get you a date. The dates this year are (September 8 - 15th). And if you know a real like hero who would like to spotlighted, please let me know. Last year I used my brother who is a Marine. The real life hero post goes up on September 11th.

Good luck, Vivi!

Congratulations, Vivi and Mickie.  I'm not surprised you made the finals.  You're both great writers.

"The Football Deep Freeze"

  Hello Ladies. It is now two p.m. on Saturday, Memorial Day Week-end, Chicago time. I realize that this is the official kick-off week-end of summer for many people, and now would not be a time when you have football on your minds; that is if you…See More
