Hello to everyone, I am new here and just learning the way around. My background, training and work experience are in science, but I was always writing on the side, and now retired, I write full time. The majority of my writing is fiction, or at least is taken to be fiction. My book "Starship To New Earth NOW" is considered by readers to be entirely fiction, though I consider its theory and suggested practice to be based on sound science fact.
Have a great day, and many sales to all.

Hello Christy! My name is Kristine, and just last week one of my friends introduced me as " an ubergeek". . 
My current RPGs are D&D and Deadlands. I also cosplay, but more at Renfaires rather than cons. I watch anime with my son occasionally, so I have a nodding aquaintaince with the genre. Nice to see another female gamer around.

Ah, yeah, you definitely came to the right place, HuntingWitch! I've discovered so many books on these forums I feel like Burgess Meredith in that old Twilight Zone episode (before he broke his glasses!).

Hi! I'm new to message boards and don't know what to write. My fiance is sick of me talking about books that he's never read (or wants to read) so he told me to find other people to talk to. I'm hoping I might find those people here! I read constantly, mostly Fantasy and Paranormal with some SciFy mixed in for variety. My favorite series' (right now) are the Fever series by Karen Marie Moning, Tiger's Curse by Colleen Houck, Descendants by Jenna Black, Mercy Thompson (and Alpha and Omega) by Patricia Briggs and of course Shadow Falls by C. C. Hunter. (Is that too much?) My biggest struggle in life is coming up with new material to read, so I'm constantly looking for new books and series'.

HuntingWitch, like Paul so graciously said this is the right place.
I'm a HUGE Moning Fever fan too and am so excited that Iced is coming out late next month. I really liked Dani in the series and I sure hope we get to reconnect w/all of our old friends from the Fever series too.
Iced (Dani O'Malley Series #1)
Some other series you might like are the JR Ward Black Dagger Brotherhood series, it starts with Dark Lover (Black Dagger Brotherhood Series #1) plus she has a new Fallen Angels series out now too the first one is Covet (Fallen Angels Series #1)
Then you might like a new author I just found Alma Katsu And her Taker series starting with The Taker (Taker Trilogy #1)
there is so many more but I haven't had my coffee yet to wake my brain up.
it's good to see new blood here

Hi HuntingWitch89,
Dhaupt has some good recommendations. I am really looking forward to Karen Moning "Iced" in October. There is great Science Fiction and Fantasy on this board. Also check out the 'Paranormal & Urban Fantasy' here at Barnes and Noble book club. I have found there is a lot of books there I love too. The Seanan McGuire series October Daye is excellent with the latest book being discussed this month. McGuire also started a series starting with Discount Armageddon. Kat Richardson's Greywalker series is another really good one. I am slow on thinking at this time of the morning. But you will find lots of recommends between these 2 boards. I have found lots of new authors and types of books from Paul (the book pimp) and all the board people.
Discount Armageddon (InCryptid Series #1)
