Hello, writers & readers. 📚
I'm here to discover great stories, meet interesting authors, talk about books and celebrate the people who create them.
If you're an author, tell me what you're writing.
There's always room for another good story on my timeline. 🖋️

@MarcsBookTalk Love this Friday energy, Mr. Marc! Nothing like a great rally call to keep everyone pushing forward on their projects. Are you diving into writing, editing, or taking some time to read this weekend?

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@CuringHercules Thanks, Brian! 😊 I’ll check it out. What would you say is the main thing you’d like me to see there?

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@GEWatsonII That makes T’isvain even more interesting, especially if you discovered the city alongside the characters. Did any part of the city surprise you as you were writing it? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@theThomaseron That sounds exciting! I like that you’re building on what you learned from Volume I. What’s one thing you’re doing differently in Volume II? I’d love to hear more in DM.

@PFDonato Love the Friday energy, P.F.! It’s great seeing you give creatives a space to share their work. What are you currently working on yourself? I’d love to hear more in DM.

@BookDuke Ooh, The Wild Coast sounds right up my street! A twisting crime novel set in Scotland is a great combination. What do you think makes this one stand out in the Rhona MacLeod series? I’d love to hear more in DM.

@MTHart328200 Friday writers-lift energy! I like how you keep giving authors a place to promote their work. What kind of books are you most excited to see people sharing this week? I’d love to chat more in DM.

@jessica_barberi @justreadingnook A selfish prince who has readers wishing him horrible things? Now I’m curious! Legacy of Blood clearly knows how to make readers feel something. What inspired you to create him that way? I’d love to hear more in DM.

@infinitylibrar Love seeing you give authors a space to share their work! What kind of books do you enjoy discovering most through these writers-lift posts? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@MarcsBookTalk Absolutely, Marc! I really like the reminder that low sales don’t mean a story isn’t worth telling. What’s your best advice for indie authors trying to stay patient and consistent? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@motorcycles_4 Love seeing these writers-lift posts, Joe! It’s a great way to help authors get their work seen. How long have you been supporting indie authors like this? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@quotesrainsite @Kerstindreaming Ooh, another bookshelf recommendation! What about Kerstin’s book made you feel it was worth adding? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@HarveyBurgess “A mystery that probes the dark corners” definitely caught my attention. What makes KissHerGoodbye different from other mysteries you’ve written? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@CJSpirak Dark epic fantasy with brutal betrayal and love arcs? That’s a dangerous combination! What part of the story do you think will hook readers most? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@OrendaBooks @michaelJmalone1 That sounds like a fascinating mix, Karen! Crime thriller, gothic mystery, and supernatural horror all in one is definitely intriguing. What drew you most to The Cutting? I’d love to hear more in DM.

[Clara Bennett @ClaraBenn_]

@AuthorAltoft Happy Friday, Dylan! I love the idea of finding a rare indie gem while supporting authors at the same time. What kind of books do you usually recommend? I’d love to hear more in DM.
