Then I have
author friends who semi-regularly read my books at
early / earlyish stages (or not) depending on their schedule, my schedule and what else is going on in their lives and whether I feel like I need the outside consult: Carey Baldwin, Tessa
Dare, Leigh LaValle, Ann Aguirre, Bree & Moira (who together form Kit Rocha and / or Moira Rogers), Elyssa Patrick, Manda Collins, Erica Ridley... this is not a complete list, alas, of people who look at my books.
