I currently am an author hard at work on my first fantasy series, and I could tell that I would love nothing more than to have my book accepted into the Oprah book club and featured on a live airing of her awesome show! I have seen plenty of other come from nowhere authors get their book featured on the Oprah book club and they went on to sell a few million copies: hey people just like what Oprah has to read and say about it and they want to read what she reads. The Oprah book club has been around for a while and has really jumpstarted the careers of many fledgling authors who otherwise would be working a day job still, instead of clacking away on their next hit book because their first book was featured on the Oprah book club. I plan indeed on sending my first book into the Oprah book club and can only sit back and wait with my fingers crossed that she will read my book and think that it is deserving of her endorsement.
