Me and my big mouth!

So, I had to go and do it didn’t I?

I happened to mention on the wonderful Kindleboards that I was running out of books to feature and was looking for new authors to grace the pages of Sapphicscribe’s blog…

ppffttt!

Wish I had never said anything!

Anyway, the upshot is, that over the next few months (and possibly years!) there will be some brilliant guest posts from indie authors on these ‘ere very pages for you wonderful readers to enjoy, so make sure you keep following!

I have had a quick sneaky peak at some of the titles coming in and they look great! A wondrous array of scribblings from fantasy, erotica to some seriously dark thrillers. Can’t wait.

Check back once MWi’s ‘Girls just wanna have fun’ summer fun &  frolics have fizzled out and get ready to meet some fabulous new authors.

To the authors: please be patient, I WILL get around to you! It’ll give you plenty of time to think up some brilliantly entertaining guest posts for my lovely readers &  followers!

Sheesh. You ever wondered why you said something in the first place?

Saffi strikes again!

Aid an indie writer #12: Manifesting Daddy by Donna Butler

GENRE: Women’s Fiction

BOOK TITLE:  Manifesting Daddy

PEN-NAME:  Donna Butler

BOOK BLURB: 

For wife and mom, Melanie Brodie, the path to wholeness is full of surprises. And a few obstacles. The “You Suck Chorus” has taken control of her mind, convincing her that she’s unloved, unfit and undeserving of a life worth waking up to. Depressed and fed up, all she wants to do is tell her troubles to “Daddy”, her hero, but he’s been dead more than thirty years. Her young, Chinese shrink tries to help her. So do her best friends with their pep talks and supernatural ceremonies. But it is Austin, the sexy, black, new neighbor who shows her that where her bliss lies, so does her self-esteem. It would be so easy to fall in love with him, especially with a marriage as rocky as hers. But that odd, familiar spark in his eyes holds clues to a metaphysical mystery.

Aid an Indie writer week #1: Into the Shadows by Karly Kirkpatrick

Ok, I promised that each week I would host a book by a fellow indie-writer on my blog. Here it is, the first one:

Into the Shadows – by Karly Kirkpatrick

(YA Paranormal)

Paivi Anderson has it all—friends, a spot on the varsity basketball
team, wonderful parents, and quite possibly, her first boyfriend.  It
was everything a freshman in high school could ask for.  Her perfect
life begins to crumble when she discovers her name on a list
distributed by a power-hungry presidential candidate. How could anyone
think of Paivi as an Enemy of the State?  Could it be because of her
special powers?  No one was supposed to know about them, but the
mysterious messages in her tater tots say otherwise.  In INTO THE
SHADOWS, Paivi quickly learns who her friends are and is forced into a
reality she didn’t see coming.
