Authors of Colour Online



Want to know what your favorite authors are up to? Wondering who your favorite author's favorite author is? Is the sequel to her next book coming out soon? Will there even be a sequel? Sure you can wait until their publisher releases that information, but wouldn't it make sense to ask them directly on Twitter or their blog? Now I'm not suggesting that you stalk them, but you can let them know that you enjoy their work. They don't always get the same love from publishers and bookstores that other authors get, so a word of encouragement really goes a long way.

I didn't list authors without Twitter accounts and I'm sure I've missed some who have them. Who do you follow that should be added to the list?
