General Information
FreshFiction provides FREE, easy, accessible, and informative data to popular fiction readers on current authors and their available books. We specialize in genre fiction: romance, mystery, horror, thriller, suspense, science fiction, fantasy, suspense, contemporary, graphic and action novels. FreshFiction.com consists of author pages, book pages, reviews, columns, blog, book reviews, and contests. None of our information requires registration or payment by the readers.
We have an active database of authors and books growing daily with input from our researchers, reviewers and columnists. All books on our site include basic information: ISBN, publisher, publication date, genre. Additional details may include the cover image, price, tagline, summary, primary characters, setting location, period, excerpt and note from author or publisher. The information is displayed on a book page incorporating provided information, purchase links and author backlist.
Our author resources include basic information: publicity photo, biography and available back list. The author page displays the information with links to each book in their list and optionally to the author's website.
The Fresh Fiction Blog is a team effort by Fresh Fiction team members, readers and guest authors. It reflects ideas and opinions of active popular fiction authors and readers and invites interactivity by other bloggers. Each day a guest author or reader provides a new blog. The blog is picked up by AllTop as well as other aggregators in addition to being posted on the Fresh Fiction Facebook page.
Our staff of 100+ reviewers under the direction of our editors (Pat Richardson and Loa Ledbetter) provide professional, copy edited reviews of current books. We're actively reviewing upcoming books in all popular fiction genres as well as non-fiction, young adult, children, religious genres. Reviews remain on the site indefinitely and can be easily found linked to each appropriate book page.
Our newsletters reach over 251,018 subscribers per month. The Fresh Fiction newsletter is published each week to over 195,000 subscribers. Each edition is themed and includes spotlights on authors, books, reviews, contests and our columns. We also publish daily newsletters: Fresh Press -- covering the previous day's appearances of books and authors on nationally broadcast media programs, including NPR programs, the morning shows, Jon Stewart, Colbert Report, interview shows, late shows and weekend programming. Our second daily newsletter is Fresh Pick showcasing a single book selected by a Reader Committee and displayed at the top of every Fresh Fiction page for a day. Monthly newsletters include: Fresh Passion, covering erotica/sensual writing and Fresh Intrigue, covering thrillers and mysteries.
