Hello! I hope you are managing to stay cool (or warm, depending on what part of the world you live in). Will three releases in the part two months, I have been visiting a lot of blogs, and participating in multiple giveaways and other events. I write mostly science fiction romance, and one of the things I often hear from readers is that they've never heard of the genre before, or they've never read anything from the genre.Now, I understand that the tag "science fiction" generally scares a lot of romance readers, as "romance" scares many sci-fi readers. But, I promise you that not all sci-fi romances are extremely technical and full of descriptions of technology and other worlds. In fact, most aren't, focusing on the romance and other relationships.
Now, science fiction romance isn't the only genre out there. There are hundreds of others, many that I haven't yet read. Growing up, I read a LOT of contemporary romance, some fantasy, and some sci-fi. Not a wide variety. But when I connected with other authors through various author memes and events, I widened my reading experiences.
The first paranormal romance I read was by Nora Roberts.
The first BDSM story by Sara Brookes.
The first Historical Romance by Cassandra Dean.
The first MM and menage by Stacey Kennedy.
The first FF by Kate Richards.
I've read plenty more in those genres since then. And I've found stories that I will love forever.
So, take a chance! This summer, try a new genre. Read a new author. You may be surprised by the story you get swept into. Happy reading!
SALE!! Never Gonna Let You Go and Sudden Breakaway are only 99 cents at Amazon until the end of June.
