The Picky Bookworm

Gabe is back on the podcast and we have a blast as usual! I had some scheduling difficulties with my guest today and Gabe was able to come on the spur of the moment. I will have today's regular guest on very soon, but I didn't want to have to cancel. So please enjoy as Gabe and I chat about books, life, blogging and our favorite subject: supporting indie authors. You can find Gabe on Twitter @GHargraveWrites so go say hi and join his Patreon! You can find the link in his bio. Until next time, friends!

Nikki is a bi-racial woman, and she joined me on the show to talk about her identity as bi-racial being the inspiration for her book, "on which side of the fence do I fall?" In one of her stories, she tells of another student calling her The N Word, which she says in a deliberate choice to take some of the stigma away. She is such a powerful, positive woman, and I loved our chat and hope you do too! Until next time, friends!

The Golden Girls are back with another book club episode! This month, we discuss Darling There are Wolves in The Woods, by L.V. Russell. We all loved the flowery descriptions, and for sure want to visit Laphaniel's house. Visit thepickybookworm.com/podcast/golden-girls-book-club to leave a comment and meet the girls. Until next time, friends!

Laurie and I had such a fun chat today! We talk about research for books, why words have power, and what happens when we dislike books vs dislike movies. You can find Laurie on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and her author page on Amazon. Until next time, friends!

TW: we do discuss anorexia and bulimia along with body dysmorphia. If you are triggered by these things, please listen carefully, or don't listen at all. I want my space to be safe for you, and don't want to cause anyone problems. We had a wonderful chat, and I look forward to your thoughts. Come visit on thepickybookworm.com and visit Peter on his socials: Instagram @peterrosch, Facebook @PeterRoschAuthor, Twitter @PeterRosch, and his website peterrosch.com. Thanks for listening. Until next time, friends!

Mike and I had such a great chat! We talked about our adhd experiences, and how reading can help you take better tests. His book, The Traitors We Are, is available on Kindle and a couple other places. Check out his website www.michaelroberti.com and hang with him on Twitter @mikesroberti. Until next time, friends!

I have been waiting for months to have Dianna on the show, and after a couple scheduling mishaps and some technology issues, she's here to talk! From writing to bad tips, our chat is full of laughs and fun. Check out Dianna's book, Moonshadow's Guardian, wherever books are sold.

Bennett and I had such a fun chat today! We talked about the funny way we met, her love for paranormal romance, and why proofreaders are important. Enjoy our chat, and come visit! You can find Pamela at thepickybookworm.com, and Bennett at booksbybennett.com. Visit Bennett on Twitter and Instagram @aebennettwrites. Our community keeps growing by leaps and bounds and I'm so thrilled to have another author join the family. Until next time, friends!

Well, our episode got cut off a little quicker than normal, but we loved bringing another indie book to your attention. This month, we discussed This Eternity of Masks and Shadows by Karsten Knight. It doesn't happen often, but we were divided in opinions, which made for some interesting discussions. I hope you enjoy, and I hope you check out this book! Until next time, friends! P.S. here's Katie's final recommenation: My conclusion, if you want a quick, easy read but don't mind the hand-holding, read it.

Leia and I had such a fun chat today! I got to gush about her books, Falling through the Weaving, and Dragons in the Weaving. Her fantasy duology is so much fun, and I loved hearing about her inspiration for the story. You can find book one on Amazon, and book two releases later this year. I hope you will support her, because I know you won't regret it. She was so fun and such a joy to speak with! Until next time, friends!
