Review: The Goddess Test

Hey look! A photo!

Aimée Carter's debut novel, The Goddess Test, is a fun, well written modernization of the Hades/Persephone myth. This story kept me guessing until the very last page! A very enjoyable, speedy read. Oh, and did I mention that I am buds with the author? Total cool factor.

Congratulations to Aimée on her debut, and all her hard work!

If you want a chance to have a character named after you in the third book of this series, head on over to her blog!

A Word With You Press

As a writer I’m always looking for niche communities to test out new works, and to stretch my own boundaries. A dear friend of mine introduced me to AWWYP and I’ve been hooked since May.

The site regularly features contests, which have a reasonable range of prizes ($25 coffee card, anyone?).They have some of the oddest themes and requirements, so prepare to think outside the box. Most of their contests are flash fiction. Fair warning.

The witty and personable Editor-in-Chief Thornton Sully knows how to hook his audience, and will make you feel like you’re writing for a damn good reason: to connect with others.

So, what are you waiting for?
