Welcome to yet another year of Triple AMA. Last year, I wasn't a very well known blogger. This was more because I didn't comment on blogs. I know, major faux pas. However, now that I have, I've made great friends and I hope that they'll be satisfied with this event and the authors I'm hosting.
This one's for you, guys. <33
Triple AMA, which is also written as 3xA MA, stands for "Authors, Authors and More Authors."
It started as a one a.m. thought. And it's unplanned but this event goes so well with the themes that have been going on around the blogosphere lately. I mean, my event follows LoveAThon, how cool is that?
"I've always felt so grateful to the authors that make me pull all nighters for their books, or the ones that take the time to connect with me on twitter. In my mind, I'd always thought that authors were on this unattainable level. Never did I think that they reply to tweets and talk to fans like we're good friends. Personally, I know that I would be lost without authors.
In this event, I want to get to know the authors; to see them for the people they are and not just as creators of your favorite book. Throughout March, excluding weekends, there will be a post from an author and the topic will be about them. And if that isn't enough, there will be giveaways."

Note: For each post, links are left to the author's social media. If you know an author whose book has affected you [in my event or just in general,] please use one of those links and leave a nice message to them! Something as simple as "I'm such a huge fan of your work" can go a long way - you'd be surprised.
I don't know how interested in this post, but I'm hoping one of your favorite authors will be featured and you'll learn something new about them! I know we talk to them on twitter, but let's get to know them... shall we?

I didn't know about your blog around this time last year (probably because I wasn't even blogging yet), but I'm so excited to learn all about the authors in Triple AMA. I, too, always thought that authors were mystical figures that couldn't be bothered by mere readers like me, but now I know that they started just where I am now-reading and writing.
ReplyDeleteScrolls down and sees "wouldn't you like to know"..... :-( BUT I REALLY WANT TO KNOW!
ReplyDeleteSuper excited for this, will definitely be checking back :-)
Em @ The YA Book Butterfly
The main reason for this is because I don't have them scheduled just yet. Eep!
DeleteYes I'm very excited for your event! I don't know which authors maybe Merissa Meyer?
ReplyDeleteI tried to contact her but she was too busy! Maybe next year. Fingers crossed.

~Fari 0:) @ My Little Corner for Books
Ooh! Daughter of Deep Silence! I couldn't get that one, sadly but I hope you enjoy it :) [I have Life Unaware and I turned down Me Being Me...]
DeleteYAY! I was really happy when I first saw note at the top of your blog saying that this event would be returning. :) I'm excited for the posts!

I love the whole idea behind this! It's true, we sometimes look at authors just as the people who write phenomenal books. It's a great idea to dial it back and see the person behind it all.
ReplyDeleteThis could be interesting.
ReplyDeleteI would like to see a giveaway for a signed copy of SIMON vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli. I would like to win a signed copy of Talon or something from Mindy McGinnis, one of my favorite authors.
Becky Albertalli is one of the authors featured ;D And I'm so glad you like Mindy McGinnis, she's so wonderful and the post she has is great!
DeleteOh, wow! And you've made it mysterious, too. :D
ReplyDeleteThis is such an amazing event! I'm so excited for ALL the authors! :)
