| Hello |
| I would like to thank Delinda Jasper for going above and beyond to explain the intricacies of designing a book cover. As a new author, there is much I do not know and really appreciate the time you took for me. I think I will like being a part of this family. Look out for my first published work titled 'Juliana' by Adelle Laudan.......coming soon! |

| RT, print publishing and Manlove--m/m romances for women |
If I found out nothing else at RT I discovered this-m/m erotic romance for women is not a recognized market in the publishing industry. Readers loved it, asked for it and about it, but most print publishers deny an audience for it exists.
Even Harlequin has decide straight women would enjoy f/f romance in their new Spice line more than ones with delicious, hot, primal men in them. I have yet to understand that particular reasoning. I love men. I want men in my romances, and two men are better than no men in a story. M/m readers do exist, by the thousands.
I want to help raise the awareness of the NY print houses to the existence of some of the hottest stories out there, MANLOVE.
Romantic manlove erotic fiction has been around for over thirty years, since the first Kirk/Spock fanfiction was written and it's not going anywhere. There are thousand of sites devoted to slash fiction and hundreds of thousands of readers looking for quality stories, most, but not all, are women. A recent Wall Street Journal article that state 60% of Brokeback's audience is female.
Manlove *is* a part of the romance community. E publishers get it, small print publishers get it. Now we need to have the big guys get it if we want more quality manlove fiction made available to us. Please consider dropping a note to the addys below. Maybe then we could see some action. It would also help to mention and include the link for a certain book's status on Amazon or B&N. Be polite. And numbers count. Let's make our voices heard.

| Going to RT this year. |
 Anyone going to RT this year? I'm not going to the full conference. Hubby had to work and I just couldn't get away for the entire week. However I am going to make it in on Saturday. I'll be flitting around the convention saying hi tomy firneds and rubbing a few shoulders. (Shoulders that are tanned and well oiled...oh la la)
Anyway, Saturday I am bringing a few promos with me. Look for my basket on promo lane withgoodies included like candy and pens. Inside this little goodie bag is a postcard for Virtual Awakening. :)
I'll definitely be at the Mr. Romance competition too! (See oiled shoulders above.) |

| Make Way for Eververse! |
So we just signed contracts with Forbidden for our 9 book Eververse Series... YAY! we are beyond estatic! Forbidden was the right place for it, and we are so glad well be working with everyone with these books. they are totally our babies and we cant wait to share them with you! So the first book is called Sugar and Sin, and it is the story of two people, Fallon, a teleport demon, and Astrid, a witch. heres the blurby:
When Astrid, a witch, met Fallon, a teleport demon, a year ago, she signed her heart away. Now Shes on the run with her bestfriend Ashlyn, a low level fire demon, and they end up hiding out in upstate NY.
Fallon has been pining away for Astrid as well, and with the help of his friend and partner Feyd, a vision demon hes planning on getting their most recent job done to get back to her. The problem? They cant seem to find the woman who stole the spell they are after... imagine their supprise when they finally track her down and Astrid is there...
Well its the first in the series... and i know your going to be enjoying it...
