Um, I don't know why this thread is called Bonjour. I'm not even French. :) But hi, nonetheless!

My name is Blair and I mainly write dark romance and suspense with a little bit of erotica thrown in. I love so many other genres though, so I'll definitely try something else, too (NA, YA, history, paranormal & fantasy).

I've got 3 short stories published and am currently working on my final manuscript for a novel called Libertine. It's dark romance and I'm really, really proud of it. :D I've self-published everything and sales/borrows are not great, but you gotta start somewhere, right?

I'm hoping to learn & meet lots of new writers because I have absolutely no one to talk to about this in RL. I'd love to share my experience as well.

So, here's to a great start of my journey, and everyone else's as well!
Blair

Congrats on your novel, Blair!

I also self-published, and know exactly what a merry-go-round it is. Still, I think the pros outweigh the cons, as long as you are willing to work your fanny off to get word out about your work!

It's also great to take pride in your creation. I feel the same way about my novel. It's great to meet you! (I'm Patrick, BTW).

Also BTW... what is RL?

If you ever want to do a review swap, let me know. I've sampled works from just about every genre since joining AW and GoodReads... dark romantic fantasy sounds like a great break from the norm.
