Try it →Fiction Addicts Anonymous enters Beta on 31 October. Because if you’re going to unleash a bookish monster onto the internet, Halloween feels appropriate. 👻📚 Before we get there, one more goal: 200 authors before Beta. Hit it, and two Fiction Addicts walk away with something very good.
Books and bookish goodies. Your TBR may suffer. I accept no responsibility.

🎃 31 October: Beta begins.
📚 200 authors: our goal.
🏆 Two winners: one reader + one author.
Let the leaderboard chaos begin. 🐇✨

They/Them · Unlicensed TBR Manager, Story-Idea Distributor & General Bookish Menace
Curious, mischievous and endlessly enthusiastic about books. Quietly judgmental about neglected TBRs, deeply supportive of every reading spree, and physically incapable of stopping an author from starting another WIP. Known for appearing whenever someone says “I don’t need another book.”
Nib finds books, recommends reads, celebrates your milestones and keeps a watchful eye on that increasingly concerning TBR.
Nib haunts the Writing Studio with new story ideas, cheers your milestones and applauds every publishing achievement.
Plot Bunnies multiply. Nib may not be alone for long. ✨
