Welcome to Indie Author Spotlight! This is a BRAND NEW weekly meme that will be held on every SATURDAY in the month. It is hosted by Beckie @Bittersweet Enchantment & CYP @A Bookalicious StoryThe idea of this meme is to promote indie authors and to help them and their books to get recognize. This will be a great way for book bloggers to take part in helping these authors be spotlighted for all their hard work. If you would like to participate with us please check out this page: 



So onto who I will be featuring this week... and I wont be doing one author a week only because there are so many wonderful indie authors out there. So I will be spotlighting 1-3 each week (most likely 2).

The Authors Novel: A Diamond In My Pocket


When Calli Courtnae breaks the World Record for the 100m, she is invited to Montana to prepare for National tryouts. However, upon arrival using her lip reading ability she realizes she’s been lied to, or at least not told the whole truth. She's a superhuman, a Runner, and her new world includes transporting packages for other supernatural groups. She’s paired up with an overly anxious Gothic roommate, is continuously glared down by the gorgeous top-dog, Chris, who feels she doesn’t belong, and is placed on a delivery team to transport a valuable magical diamond to a clan of terrorists who can kill with their thoughts. Chris, the team leader, is given the diamond, but Calli secretly receives the real stone along with a vision of the future and an explanation of why she was hand selected to carry out the mission. Almost immediately the hidden diamond oozes unprecedented additional powers and abilities in Calli making her more sought after than the diamond itself.

  3. I think it is so awesome that you started this new meme! Not enough people read indie authors for the sole fact that they are indie authors. I have found some truly amazing books that had a self-pubbed author!
