Fresh Fiction

About me:

.. FreshFiction is a web site devoted to providing easily accessible information for fiction readers. We specialize in genre fiction: romance, mystery, horror, science fiction, fantasy, suspense, and action. We have an active database that grows every day with input from our researchers, reviewers and columnists.

Fresh Fiction publishes several newsletters: The Fresh Fiction newsletter is published each week to over 100,000 subscribers. Each edition is themed and includes spotlights on authors, books, reviews, contests and our columns. We also publish a daily newsletter Fresh Press covering the previous day's appearances of books and authors on 50+ national media programs, including NPR radio programs, the morning news shows, daytime programming, late night talk shows and weekend programming. Fresh Press is free to librarians, booksellers, and readers who like to keep on top of the buzzed books and authors. Other reader directed newsletters include Fresh Passion for the more adventuresome reader and Fresh Thrills covering suspense, action, mystery and thriller titles. We invite you to subscribe or visit our archives.

Want to join a group of readers who have infamous stories of having so much fun they’ve been tossed from bars, asked to leave restaurants, closed down tea rooms. Now's your chance to have such a good time -- you'll become part of the legend!

Let me tell you all about the first Fresh Fiction Readers Conference. We're holding our inaugural Readers 'n 'ritas (because we're readers and we love to chat over margaritas! Plus if you say it really fast it will trip off your tongue and you'll sound cool?!?!) on Saturday, October 11th at the Richardson (North Dallas) Radisson Hotel. And we want YOU to join the celebration! This will be the PREMIERE Reading Event of the Season. For readers, about readers, and by readers!

So what do you get? Well a day of sessions on topics like: Covers Tell the Story, Deals and Steals, So You Want To Be a Reviewer, Books You May Have Missed, Book Club How-tos and Don'ts, plus fun stuff like Do You Miss the Euphemisms? and Care and Handling of a Top Notch Book Collection. Plus lots of time to sit and discuss books with fellow passionate readers.

And food, did we forget? Lunch and dinner will be with authors up close and personal in an informal way and for longer than a signing. Our author guests include some names you're familiar with -- Sherrilyn Kenyon, Lauren Wittig, Dakota Cassidy, Dianna Love, Rosemary Clement-Moore, Jodi Thomas, Michele Bardsley, plus names you'll KNOW after the conference including Jaye Wells! And our mistress of talk is the bubbly and fabulous local radio personality AND author Candace Havens!

Raise your glass (or pitcher) with new friends and passionately discuss books. It may sound contentious but when else will you have the opportunity to sound off on the direction a fave author takes in a series, or find out if that new book is worth the hype, or discover a brand-new-to-you series! It's all part of what we call 'rita therapy.' And the first margarita is included!

You'll also get to browse, buy and trade at the huge romance book trade. Complete a collection or start a new one! And what gathering is complete without raffle baskets? All the money we raise goes to literacy so you'll be helping others share your passionate obsession with books!

Plus test your knowledge (and win prizes) by stumping the experts on your knowledge of romance novels, authors and trivia. Where else will you get to show off some of that "useless" information you've learned over the years of reading? It's time for the payoff! And all in good fun!

And wait, that's not all, you'll also get a swag bag filled with books and other goodies! So don't delay, be part of the legend and join us on October 11th!

Get your TICKET today!! Tell your friends and join us for a 'rita on Saturday, October 11th!!! http://readers-n-ritas.org
