I am an indie author, blogger and book reviewer. I’m also a recovering lawyer, former B&B owner and was a military policewoman for the U.S. Army in a previous life. After spending my senior year of high school in Germany, I developed a bad case of wanderlust that is yet to be cured. I currently live in Istanbul and blog about all the strange and wonderful things I encounter while exploring the city. I’ve independently published two novels and am working (albeit slowly) on the third. I use my book blog to review books of other (indie) authors in any genre that happens to tickle my fancy.

I’ve finally managed to train my husband that if I’m near the end of the book, he’s not allowed to talk to me or make...

O is for Open Hearted Cover links to Amazon.com In the beginning, embarking on a journey into Twitter is much like being lost at sea.  I discovered Scott Southard’s post, "Drowning in Tweets" at such a time.  Since that time, I have been struck by his open heartedness when sharing on his blog.  He is not afraid to be honest about who he is as an author, as a person.  He doesn't shy away from sharing his struggles and triumphs.  My favorite story of triumph is the story behind A Jane Austin's Daydream and how it came to be.... it’s one you don’t want to miss! Mark's Note: this is a repeat nomination. Scott was nominated for the letter H.

She's all poisons and prose. This Ne'er-do-well keeps her subversive side secret by helping the homeless while researching the seedy underbelly of society.  Mark's Note : This nomination came about after a conversation with Liana on Twitter. I liked the humor so I had no problem allowing it. Sometimes the best compliment comes in the form of snark.

M is for Mentor Cover links to Amazon.com He is a mentor because he lifts up other writers with kindness and honest critique.  He keeps it real, and he won't bullshit people. Plus his blog is filled with thought-provoking, honest posts and great fiction. He is genuinely unaware of his own talent and that itself is rare. He is honest in his fiction as well as in his blog posts, in which he breaks barriers down. There is a definitive quality to his work that speaks for itself. He doesn't dress it up in bows and poetry it's raw and honest in a way that makes the reader think.

K is for knowledge Cover links to Amazon.com I met Christine on a writing site. She's an amazing writer, but more than that she's a wall of knowledge. This knowledge is not limited to the writing style, but it goes beyond it. She is a teacher, a feminist, a responsible citizen, and a friend. I've gained so much from our conversations (and her blog). She is not afraid to talk or write about the subject as is evident from her blog. A feminist to the core, she writes pretty fiction, and shows the woman who are real and not wuss.

H is for Humorous and Honest Cover links to Amazon.com I ran across Scott Southard in the Twitterverse through one of his posts, "Drowning in Tweets". He was offering help for those of us who had just embarked on the Twitter journey and were lost at sea. Each and every time I run across one of his posts on his blog, it brings a smile to my face and laughter to my heart.   He is not afraid to be honest about who he is as an author, as a person. He does not pretend to have it all together and continuously shares his experiences in a lighthearted and humorous manner.

F is for FERAL Cover links to Amazon.com GVR Corcillo is a writer by day, but by night, she's a hero, roaming the streets of Los Angeles and rescuing her damsels in distress: feral cats. She catches them and whisks them off to the clinic for spaying or neutering.  If they're tame she'll find them homes; the ferals she'll release, feeding them and watching over them like Batman guarding Gotham City.  She's even spent her nights staking out a cat colony to catch a villain who was shooting the cats. She may write about characters who struggle to find courage, but GVR Corcillo has plenty of her own.
