June 8th is almost here, and as a member of the Women’s Fiction Writers Association, I’m excited to help celebrate its 4th annual Women’s Fiction Day.
What’s women’s fiction? Typically it’s a character-driven story about an emotional journey from point A to point B. Frequently the protagonist is also a woman, and there are often multiple layers, characters, and issues addressed in the story world, too. The stories can be contemporary or historical, and may have elements from other genres such as magical realism, mystery, thriller, romance, and so on.
Readers can help us celebrate by doing one or more of these things:
- Visit www.womensfictionwriters.org and search the list of authors offering free books and giveaways.
- Attend one of the many book signings held across the country on June 8.
- Visit www.womensfictionwriters.org and subscribe to the free Read ON! Newsletter where we’ll keep you up-to-date on new women’s fiction authors and titles.
- Visit the WFWA Goodreads bookshelf and Pinterest boards to find hundreds of titles.
- Download the Hear Us Roar debut authors podcast
- Visit your local library and/or indie bookstore to discover new authors and novels.
- Follow WFWA on Twitter @WF_Writers or Instagram womensfictionwriters.
- On social media, #bookstagram your favorite book and include a photo or stack with #womensfictionday.
Personally, you can support me and my work by going to my backlist to check out older books, requesting my books at your library, or following me on social media!
