A-Z of Writing - C
Chick Lit is what I write. Some people think it's a dirty, shameful word but I love it - both writing and reading it. I love to escape in a fun, often frivalous book. Chick Lit isn't all shopping and designer handbags - although some of it is and if that is what you enjoy reading, who has the right to judge you?
My blog started off with the name mamajheartschicklit (because I do) but I streamlined it a few months ago. I have started to dip my toe into other genres but Chick Lit will always be The One for me.
What genre do you read/write?

I LOVE Chicklit! Women's fiction...whatever name they want to call it!
ReplyDeleteIt's fab! x
There are some great stories in chick lit! I've had my eyes opened to it recently by another author, Kyra Lennon. I was a bit snobby about it before but that was wrong.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the world of chick lit. Enjoy!
DeleteI love various genres, but especially chick lit.
ReplyDeleteYou have fab tastes!
DeleteI'm more of a dark, steamy, or funny sci-fi and fantasy kinda girl, but there's a place on the shelf for everyone. :)
ReplyDeleteI do give other genres an occasional go (except horror. Never horror) but chick lit is my favourite.
DeleteI love suspense novels. I like a good chick lit book every now and then too, though. :) I am not a writer. . . . Thanks for stopping by my blog during the A to Z challenge! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by too :-)
DeleteI love all kinds of books - including chick lit. Especially if there is a house in it. I love nest building. I also love mysteries with a female 'detective'. I'm especially in love with books by Louise Penny, Jacqueline Winspear and Laurie R King. I am a retired librarian and being a Reader's Advisor was one of my great pleasures.
ReplyDeleteI love libraries. I used to practically camp out at my local library during the summer holidays when I was a teenager.
DeleteI've written a chic lit novel, and I'm now working on the sequel. I love it!
ReplyDeleteMe too. Have fun writing the sequel!
DeleteChickLit made it to Amazon's top the bestsellers list for 2012.
ReplyDeleteThat's because chick lit rules :-P
DeleteI write all sorts of things - chick lit, YA, mystery, and horror topping the list. When you aren't published yet, you can do whatever you want ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat post, found you from A to Z!
I think you've found the one plus of being unpublished - the freedom to write whatever you want.
DeleteI like chick-lit if it has a strong romantic plot. A lot of ppl who like clean romance read chick lit w/ strong romance because it's cleaner than genre romance.
