Hi Clover Autrey and Jen FitzGerald: I would love to be a judge or even just a proof reader if needed for The Carolyn Readers Choice Award contest of the North Texas Chapter of Romance Writers of America. I am retired and more or less bed bound so all I do do is read off my laptop. I read all genres but lean more towards historical and paranormal first and then contemp. I am not, nor are any of my family associated with nor affiliated with the publishing industry in any way or inspiring to be an author, but I do have a few author friends on FB (if that doesnt count). I think since I have been reading for the past 55 yrs that I am exempt from the 18 and over rule too...lol
I usually read in pdf form as I find to scroll down on the lap is easier then 'click page, click page.... But do have quite a few (over 12,00) Kindle/mobi books from Amazon.ca that read from also. I use Calibre to convert HTML, lit and epub.
Well as I said I would be honoured to review/judge any works up for the The Carolyn Readers Choice Award and am able to be discreet and not blab all over my findings to anyone (wink, wink). Hope to hear from you soon.
Cheers Net. (Netasha Patywich 2:28am January 23, 2016)
I love to read, 27 books in one week is something that happens a lot. Would love to take part, but am trying to dip my toe in the water as an aspiring writer.Note the aspiring. So anyway else I can join to read all these fantastic new books by the truckloads? Louise Breedt (Louise Breedt 8:25am January 23, 2016)
I love to read I can read at times 2 books at a time I read on my kindle and paperback, I'm 62 so way over 18 and I love reading before I head off to work and afterwards rather than watching TV. thanks for the chance to win free books who wouldn't want free books!

I absolutely love to read. I meet the age requirement since I'm about to turn 48. I would consider it an honor to participate in judge these books. (Suzie Quebedeaux 9:16am January 25, 2016)
