This is the second year of The Qwillery's Debut Author Challenge. This year many of the 2012 Debut Authors will be writing a guest post approximately 1 to 2 months ahead of his or her debut novel's publication. Near the publication date, each of the 2012 Debut Authors will be interviewed. Debut Authors' books will be listed in a post on the first of each month. Please check each month's list to let me know if I've missed any debut authors. You can also let everyone participating know which book or books you will be reading in the comments to the post.
The object of the 2012 Debut Author Challenge is for participants to read at least 12 debut novels during 2012 - one from each month of the year though you may read them anytime between January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012.
The genres and subgenres covered by the challenge are Fantasy, Urban Fantasy, Epic Fantasy, Historical Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Paranormal Mystery, Horror, Science Fiction, SciFi Romance, Steampunk, Steampunk Mystery, Steampunk Romance, Supernatural Noir and all their permutations. The debuts are generally not YA/MG.
Happy Reading!
