Anyone have any suggestions for Q or X??

Xiaolu Guo
Chelsea Quinn Yarbro

- Check out Chinese authors - their names are more likely to have those letters.
- If you read short stories, check your anthologies to see if any of the authors have X or Q names. That way you can use the anthology even if the author doesn't have any novels.

Thanks!!
Will go take a look at those!

Xinran

Lauren, which of the Yarbro books would you recommend?
I see she has quite a list!
St. Germaine; Madelaine de Montalia or a Stand Alone?

I haven't read any of them I'm afraid! I was just looking for Q authors in past years, and took note of her name as one whose books I'd like to read. But either I find someone else or never get around to finishing the challenge.

Done! I highly recommend my book for author with an X if anybody still needs one or is planning for next year (and one day I'll figure out why it is so much easier to find authors with X than Y...)

Done

Made it! Just in time too!

Well done both of you!

Thanx :)
