Levels of Clean


When I decided to call this magazine “Clean Fiction” I knew that I was opening a proverbial “can of worms”, but I wanted the title to be clear and easy to understand. What is the problem with calling it “Clean Fiction”? Everyone has their own definition of “clean” and that definition may or may not match up with mine or my reviewers. To alleviate this problem I have created a quirky rating system that should keep you informed while giving you a giggle. This rating system paired with descriptive yet spoiler free reviews should give you all the information that you need to decide if a book is for you or a bit too much. I would like to reiterate that this magazine is NOT intended for teens. I do not want to frighten the ultra-clean readers by this statement. There are several books listed just for you, but I also know how BIG the Young Adult market is right now and how easily the name of our magazine could be mistaken for something it is not. Not a day goes by without me seeing a post from a mom or dad asking for suggestions on social media for their middle schooler or teen. There are plenty of other publications that will readily help them. As of right now, “Clean Fiction” is set up as a “New Adult” genre space. This includes books that may be labeled/mislabeled/marketing labeled as "Young Adult" because "New Adult" is such an up-and-coming genre. I am fully prepared for the angst that might follow these misunderstandings, but those that I anger cannot say that they were not warned!


Our Community Activity for this week is:

SPREAD THE WORD


Share the existence of this magazine with your friends, family, and acquaintances! I cannot stress enough how important this is! Currently I am holding the jobs of Publisher, Layout Specialist, Marketing Maven, Social Media Manager, Reviewer, Writer, Blogger, and Illustrator... It is a bit of a lot. If you could help me out by spreading the word, I would really appreciate it!



Hoping all of you wonderful "Clean Fiction" readers out there have a great day!

It is true, your eyes are not deceiving you, Clean Fiction Magazine's Winter Edition earned a #1 New Release in Literary Criticism Reference on Amazon. I was blown away with the number of downloads and Kindle Unlimited reads that have come in over the last month. Currently, we are at 111 downloads/buys/full reads on KDP. This is so exciting and I am feeling extremely blessed by the positive feedback that I have received. We currently have 5 cumulative 5 star ratings, which again is so encouraging. I would like to thank all of you for your support and for your downloads/purchases/reads. Readers are why we work so hard and building this community has been a pleasure. I am so enjoying sharing that community with you and I am anticipating the next steps on this journey with eagerness! This Week's Community Activity: Read - Rate - Review It is time to return the favor! The magazine is FREE on Kindle Unlimited and very reasonable as an ebook/paperback. If you have read the Winter E...

Thank You

This year has been the year of uncomfortable things. I have put myself out there in ways that I never anticipated. Publishing my debut novel. Cold calling businesses and authors. Throwing myself into a community that I was not sure would accept me. Through it all God has brought people to help me along the way. To encourage me and to remind me that my hopes could be physical instead of ephemeral. So I will use this week's correspondence to thank a few people who have helped me along the way. First, I would like to thank the Review Team. Laura, Moriah, and Kelly have been enthusiastic about this publication from the beginning and their encouragement helped me through the difficult times. Next, the Launch Team, you guys are the bomb! ( I know....SO 90's) The fact that strangers would be willing to help this publication along was humbling to say the least. Karen needs a shout out for donating her time to proofread the publication. I would also like to thank the bookstores/stores t...

Autumn Beauty

I have had the distinct pleasure to be caught in a few "leaf showers" lately. Watching the bright yellows and deep crimsons flutter around me on the brisk breeze is a gift so magical it could only be created by the Father. I don't know about you, but when I look upon the wonders of the natural world I see Him. His delicate violet brushstrokes on the tiniest of flowers. His laugh in the endless fields of golden rod rippling like waves in the wind. His love in the bright sun that lights the warm tones of autumn in a dazzling display of vibrancy. I am humbled to behold such beauty in this single human existence that I have been given. How does God show you Himself in the natural world around you?
