My 1st Post

Hi everyone. This is my very first blog post. My name is Erin Burr, and I love fantasy novels. I have always, always, loved them. When I was younger I would raid my dad's bookcase to get them and they would very often have a ridiculously big-breasted woman on the cover in a leopard fur bra and a ripped skirt. It was obvious from the cover art that I, a young girl, was not the intended audience.

Luckily it's not like that anymore. Now there are countless fantasy novels written for girls and with girls as main characters. I love it! I love these books, and I've created this blog to talk about them. I'll be reviewing and recommending the books I read. I'll also be talking about other forms of fantasy for girls like TV shows and movies, and about fantasy events and websites.

Finally, I love these books so much that I decided I had to write one myself. I've been working on my novel, The Magicians' Chorus, aimed at 10-14 year old girls for about a year and a half now. I'm now in what I hope is the final revision, and I'll be posting updates about my novel and about my progress in finding and agent, a publisher, and all that good stuff.

I hope you like this blog, and that it helps you pick the best fantasy books. Your responses are always welcome. If you'd like, please feel free to e-mail me at Erin.A.Burr@gmail.com .
