Hello Reader,

I’m often asked; “What can I do to support AALBC?” A great way is to engage on our platform. Every book and author page on AALBC has a place where comments may be shared. We have also maintain one of the web’s oldest, continuously running, discussion forums. Our online book club, which was the focus of this newsletter, is a fun way to discuss the book we’ve chosen for the month.

 

AALBC is “Social,” but without the invasion of privacy, psychological manipulation, and greed.

Patronizing AALBC and sharing information, you find valuable, with others is also very important to ensuring readers and writers have an independent, online, platform to share our stories and ideas.

Peace and Love,
Troy Johnson
Founder & Webmaster, AALBC.com
