I gave up on some of the appropriate-to-LSF readers and writers groups on Goodreads a while after Amazon took them over. I met a lot of very nice people, and people who have gone on to be well known kink & erotica authors, there. Still pen-pal with a couple. There were places in those groups that functioned as chat rooms related to what the commentators above mention.
I stopped going to Goodreads several years ago although could if I wish, and think I'm still a member in some 'you must be invited' 18+ groups.
I've never published but ... it seemed to be a fabulous place for indie authors (including you gals and guys published by LSF) to develop / build a readership among potential target readers. Just don't blatantly tout your stuff, if you are a writer.
I do NOT know what the heavy hand of Amazon has changed or left the same. Just as I took a hiatus from LSF for several years, and am now enjoying my return, perhaps I should jump back in to Goodreads. |
