I'm very excited to see that Literary Escapism is hosting the New Author Challenge again for 2011. This is one challenge that I have participated in, and actually completed, for the past 2 years and I've really enjoyed it! So head on over to the sign-up page to check out the guidelines, which are pretty minimal I might add, and join in the fun! I think I am going to shoot for 25 new authors again this year, as that seems to be a lucky number for me with this challenge. I will list the new authors on this post as I read them. So what are you waiting for? Go, go now!
