Congratulations, Tim!

Er...Mudgeon, am I on this list? I have a lot of action in my books.
Well, quite a bit. Can't say they are action driven.
Mine are character driven.

Thank you Patti. There are five finalists in the competition and the winner will be announced in October. I'll be in Phoenix for the announcement. I'm really excited.

Congrats and Good Luck, Tim!

Absolutly!

And there was an existing list already, we just moved it over here. I'll close that thread down once this one is clearly alive healthy and up to date.

Actually, this is the list closing... here...

I'm going to put you on the list here ...

If you can give me the name of your book(s) I'll put them on the "BL" so your books can be nominated to the Featured Member-Author Group Read (Starting in Sep.)

(I know I linkned to here, but, I was still constructing the boards when I sent the announcment out.)

Nathan, I've got you on the "Honor Roll" on the "Featured Member Author Group Reads" List.

I found a book when I did that, can you post the link here so I can stick up on the "Book List" then your book can be nominated for the September Member-Author Group Read.

I'll get the one I found up when I get home from work, but if you have more... post the links and I'll counter stick them on the list as fast as I can.

I would love you to consider my two thrillers:

DEADLY EYES: http://www.amazon.com/Deadly-Eyes-ebo...

COVERT DREAMS: http://www.amazon.com/Covert-Dreams-e...

HTC, I have a recently published book and I would like to be added to the list of authors. The book is Defenceless and by sheer coincidence it will be offered as a FREE ebook on August 29th and 30th so everyone can pick it up easily.

Mike and Heath, I'm putting them up now.

Okay, Heath and Mike, your books are on the list.

This is where we're keeping it.

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

This is basically a "Data-base" of Member-Author books that are eligible to be nominated for the "Member-Author Group Reads." In a couple of days, Thursday I think. Eileen will open a "Nominations Thread" and you can nominate your own books if you like (on that thread) or someone else can nominate them for you.

Once the nominations close we'll give you guys time to post links to websites, reviews, what ever you think will help people learn about your book.

Then after a short period for the group members (non-authors and authors alike) will be able to vote for the group read...then we read.

If you have any questions, please let me or Eileen know. (Post them on a thread or PM one of us.

Thanks for jumping in.

@Mike and Heath

I've also added your names to the Member-Author Honor Roll here:

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

Once that list is stable (and I know I have all the names shifted over). I'll close this list so the "Honor Roll" of Member-Authors is in the same group of threads that the book list and the group reads will use.

DM Coffman needs to be added for The Hainan Incident


published by Covenant Communications and nominated for a Whitney Award. This is an international suspense thriller based on the (real) US spy plane midair collision and forced landing on China's Hainan Island in the South China Sea. Critics likened it to a Tom Clancy novel--edge-of-your-seat adventure! I hope you'll add it to your list.

Your in DM. Again, the name and book are added under the "Featured Member-Author Group Read" Section. Author listed on "Honor Roll" an book listed on "Books by Member Authors."

I'd be honored to be a part of this list! My new (and my first) A/A novel "D-E-D,DEAD" is available on my website, from Amazon as a Kindle or Trade Paperback, and has been very well received by those who have contacted me after reading it.

I've listed your book here

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

and put your name on our Honor roll here.

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

and if you wish to participate in our group read, you can tell us about it here:

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

If you have any questions, please ask.

((This thread will be closed and removed since we now have a whole section of boards devoted to Member Authors and a better list of books and writers. Which you and yours are already on.))

I'm new to this group, but not to the action-adventure genre. I have two books out on Kindle and, although they are listed as Science Fiction Adventure and Horror, they are actually action-adventure set in the horror genre of a Zombie Apocalypse.

As another author describes my books, "Gorey, pulpy, zombie fun! Basically it's the A-Team meets Battlestar Galactica meets The Walking Dead. If this were a show I'd watch it."

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, try Voyage of the Dead and Flotilla of the Dead ("Deluge of the Dead" coming soon).

David P. Forsyth

Wow, can't have enough of zombie Appocolypse! Hard to get more action than that... lots of running and shooting!

I'm going to add you to the Honor roll in the new section for featured authors and put your books on the "Book List"

Is Flotilla of the Dead a sequel to Voyage of the Dead?

I've closed this thread (and will eventually archive it).

we have a Sub-Group of Boards now for "Featured Member Authors"

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/group_...

where we have the New and improved (and updated) Honor Roll (of Member-Authors)

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

and a list of books written by our Member-Authors (which are also books eligible for featued Member Author group reads)

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/9...

If I've missed someone or skipped a book written by someone, please PM me or post on one of those threads!
