One of the latest #YARevolution recruits, Barbara Cool Lee, the author of the Deeds of the Ariane novellas, has posted on her Goodreads blog about  #YAR. Here’s an excerpt: “The Deeds of the Ariane is joining a great new project: YA Revolution! for literature with message & meaning. Lada Ray, author of The Earth Shifter, has started YA Revolution, which “aims to unite all those who are tired of the same old, same old and who want to read new, original, inspiring books with message and heart.” A great project with a terrific goal.” Here’s a link to Barbara’s post.

Lada says: Loved the post, Barb! Your novellas certainly sound like an exciting read, and the ones right up the #YAR alley. 🙂 Welcome to the #YARevolution! We are for literature with message and meaning.

Everyone, spread the word and join! Literature should be nourishment for our minds and souls. #YAR is open to anyone who cares about what mind/soul food our teens – and we as adults – consume! Go to YAR page to join.

Cheers,
Lada Ray
Author, #YARevolution founder

P.S. I am looking into starting a YA Revolution Goodreads group, as well as other  groups at similar venues. Join us and help promote our cause. If you would like to volunteer to help organize a group, please contact me!

THE EARTH SHIFTER Virtual Tour continues! It is my pleasure to reblog author Mark O’Neill’s post featuring his 5 Star review of THE EARTH SHIFTER, as well as his thoughts and ideas on our #YARevolution. Mark is an original thinker and a kindred spirit, and this post (as well as his entire blog) is well worth checking out!      Incidentally, Mark will soon be releasing Book 2 of his The Ancients and the Angels YA fantasy series, ARCHONS. Check it out! In the past several months, Mark has been a guest on multiple radio shows. Check out these interesting interviews on his blog! Lastly, Mark has been a great contributor and supporter of our new YA Revolution – for literature with message and meaning! By the way, YA Revolution is taking off! Join us!     Stay tuned, as more interesting and different features, interviews and posts are coming your way, including Real Russia Video Journey 2: Spectacular Moscow + a very special author interview with author/blogger Jason Sullivan. Jason is one of the best interviewers I’ve ever met. He makes his subject feel comfortable and asks deep, poignant and revealing questions that no one else dares to ask! His last year’s incredible interview became the “Centerpiece” of my Gold Train Blog Tour. This one will be just as special, I promise!     Last, but certainly not least, all my ebooks are on huge sale on Amazon: $.99 (or equivalent)! The Earth Shifter, Gold Train and Stepford USA paperbacks are now available and are also on big sale! Check them out! Buy links.

Thanks to the genius of author Lada Ray, I have been recruited into an army, and an amazing one at that. With this transmission, I present to you the YA Revolution!

Here is the YA Rev HQ!

Lada Ray has been a gigantic inspiration for me, even though I’ve only known of her for a few months. To let you know, she is the author of The Earth Shifter saga and its accompanying mini-saga, The Earth Keepers.  You can read my Author spotlight of her work here.

It bears repeating. The following is my FIVE STAR Amazon review of The Earth Shifter and I really suggest that all of you Manaballers read it. I’ve stated that it’s the best book I’ve read in two years, and I stand behind that.

*****

This is the main saga written in tandem with Ms. Ray’s series “The Earth Keeper.” Read…

The E-publishing revolution has just started, and already digital shelves are full of senseless imitations rehashed over and over again. Some books are just openly negative, violent or meaningless. All you need is an e-reader and a simple click of a button in order to purchase an ebook. No one can possibly police what our teens and young adults are reading. Meanwhile, their minds are still delicate and developing, and perhaps they haven’t yet learned to discern what is good and what is harmful. Much of what our teens may be downloading on their e-readers may not be what they should be reading in order to develop into good human beings and responsible citizens of our planet!

Typically, author organizations and promotional sites do not distinguish books for integrity, quality of message and positive energy. It is up to us, readers, writers, bloggers and reviewers to convey this information to each other. YA Revolution aims to unite all those who are tired of same old, same old and who want to read new, original, inspiring books with message and heart. It’s also for those who want the same for their kids. We intend to give voice and help promote authors who deserve to be heard, whether they write YA or adult literature. The more good books are promoted by us all, the easier both teens and adults will be able to chose the right books to read!

Whether you are a young adult or simply young at heart,

join the YA REVOLUTION!

We are for literature with message and meaning!
