http://www.literaryescapism.com/247/weekly-geeks-8-challenges Welcome to my alternate reality. Escaping into new worlds, meeting new characters and exploring different societies is the only way we have of leaving the harsh reality of life behind us...if only for a little bit.

I just got into the Urban Fantasy genre about 3 years ago and I was reading the mainstream authors first. I.E. LK Hamilton and Sherrilyn Kenyon. Then I found JR Ward, then Kim Harrison, and then Kelley Armstrong, and I kind of snowballed from there. Last year, when my son was born, I ended up with a lot of time reading so i was going through what books I knew, so I started looking for more. Needless to say, I ended up with a lot and I'm still always on the lookout for more. “new author” means new to me.

I'm horrible at keeping up with the latter. I'm usually about 3 years behind on bestseller lists. Does “new author” mean new-to-you, or new as in first book published recently?
