Whoo Hooo! The contracts are signed and I'm now an official member of the Total E-Bound publishing house. Yay! Actually, this is the second contract but I've been insanely busy and haven't had time to update the site until today. Here goes. Phaze: Two books accepted and the schedule rearranged so I'll have one coming out in August and another in November. Total E-Bound, and this is a new experience for me. An awesome new writing partner, Jamie Hill and I are in the process of creating a trilogy of changeling novels we're calling Untamed Hearts. The first book, Feral Heat has been accepted and the contract signed. The most recent contract is for Ghost of a Chance, a Lust Bites shortie that I subbed to them. It's been a grand two weeks.

A new publishing house is closing. Dark Eden Press, where I'd placed my Who Races - Who Wins is closing down as of today due to the illness of the owner. I'm extremely sorry to see this one do, it showed a great deal of promise and they were a great bunch to work with. I wish Deb all the best and a speedy recovery.

LOOK!!

This is an odd feeling. Who Races-Who Wins is the first full length novel I've written. It was finished several years ago, and I was pretty amazed at myself for being able to string that many words together. The book isn't for everyone, the fetish is a pretty specific and not for some readers. But, it's one I enjoyed researching and finding out about. I mean what would make a man want to be treated like an animal. The pony girl fetish is much more widely known, and I've never delved too deeply into it either. They're much the same, but from completely different perspectives, right?

Tomorrow this goes live, but I wanted to share this triumph with you all. I'm really excited about it and hope you guys go have a look.

Alison Tyler continues the best-selling erotic alphabet series with this collection of stories about all things leather. Lisette Ashton exults in the sultry, distinctive aroma of leather with a perfect description of the erotic aspect of sliding into a new leather jacket in "Truman Capote Was Wrong." In "Sunday Service," author Kate Pearce takes a love of leather even further in this homage to a black belt. These stories will fill your senses with all there is to enjoy in leather.

Now, I also found out, that you can pre-order it if you're so inclined and thought I'd share the link with you.

Blink, they don't believe in mega links at all... Jeeze! Anyhoo, this promises to be one hell of a book, and if you're into leather, I know you'll enjoy it. Lisette Ashton, well I know him and he's an awesome writer, and a crazy man...LOL Alison Tyler is well known for her editing and the books she's put together, so I was truly thrilled to have something in this one.

Hello everybody. Phaze is conducting a reader's survey to get an idea of what people want, what people look for, and what we can do to make people happy. Our publisher, the adorable Kat Lively, has constructed the survey and it will only take a moment of your time. you can see it/take it here:

All readers who take the survey will receive a free eBook for their time, and be put in a drawing to win three paperbacks of their choice. To make it more beneficial for the authors, she's adding an author incentive.

In the survey she's included a tag for an author referral. The Phaze author who gets the most referrals will receive a prize, so I'd appreciate a vote. The more we know what readers want, we'll be able to give it to them.

This survey will run until November 15th.

Hugs
Jude

Okay, I need your help. Here's the deal. My bookcover for Jesse's Homecoming has been nominated for best cover of the month at Erin Aislinn's website and I'd really love it if you'd take a moment to go and have a look. There are some amazing covers there...gulp! I'd really appreciate the vote. Any of us would, but I think Elissia Brio did an awesome job on mine and I think she'd be really pleased if the cover did well.

Super easy to vote, just click on the link beside the cover of your choice and bingo it's pretty much done. Thanks so much.

Some pretty amazing news for me this go around. I was visiting one of the yahoo clubs I'm fond of chatting in, and mentioned that I was looking for a new publisher, possibly two. I got a couple of replies but that wasn't the big news. That evening, I got an email from one of the staff of Dark Eden Press. Susan White, asked me about a book I had previously had published called Who Races-Who Wins, and if I'd thought of submitting it to DEP. One thing led to another and I wound up sending it to her, in all it's unedited glory. I was contacted a few days later by the head honcho, Debra Durham, and she's apparently read the book and liked it a lot. She also said it needed a really good edit. LOL Yup, I agreed with her, and I now have a contract in the mail. Whoo Hooo!

Dark Eden Press is one of the new kids on the block, but it's got a lot going for it. The three women who own and run it, aren't in a mad scramble to get books into print. They want to take their time and do it right. Debra, who is extremely easy to talk to, as is everyone I've spoken to so far, said by the time Who Races-Who Wins is published with them, they'll be listed in Fictionwise and have ISBN numbers. All is good. So, I'm a happy camper and looking forward to working with the editors to see what needs fixing... ugh... tons of stuff, but that's good too.

A new release, Jesse's Homecoming, from Phaze. I really am thrilled to have my first lesbian western out. Not my first les story to be sure, but it's been awhile and I really had fun with this one. Been a while since I rode a horse, or bathed one, but just telling about it was a gas. Check it out at Phaze.

Wow, author of the month! I made it and am being featured on the Essence of Erotica website as well as sent out in their newsletter. Thrilled doesn't even begin to explain my feelings. Flabbergasted is closer. Click on the picture and it'll whiz you off to see what all the hoopla is about.

What a busy couple of weeks. Sammy is all done, or I should say, Sam, the Man, and sent off to Kat at Phaze this afternoon. Phew! I sure hope she likes it/him. It's destined for the Phaze Fantasies VI anthology and already contracted. I had a thought about that too. It was contracted before it was written. What happens if she hates it? I mean the contract is signed and all, so it's a done deal. Maybe? Re-writes? I honestly have no idea. Let's hope I don't have to find out.

I'm off to work on a new one now. A sci-fi, futuristic, femdom, alternate Earth kind of thing. Blink! Yeah I know, different from my usual fare, but I figured what the hell. This may be going to a prospective new publisher. *Crossing fingers* The woman who runs Mojocastle, a relatively new kid on the block, contacted me after Michael Barnette let her know I was interested in them. After the initial panic, I came up with a scenario, tossed it back to her and she's interested. So, I'll do my best.

As you all know, Phaze is my main publisher, right? Well, Phaze sells through Fictionwise too. I don't get nearly as much per book sold there as I do when it's sold through Phaze, but it's a big old store and they sell a lot of books. I don't usually check very often, but since Scorpio went live I admit I've checked every few days. It started out in number 37 position in the Phaze store at Fictionwise and I was kind of down. #37 isn't great. I checked a few days later and it had risen to #20 something, and I figured that was going to be it. Well, hot damn, I checked this morning and.... drum roll please... It's moved into #8 position. Whoo Hooo! Yup, I'm thrilled. #8 isn't #1, but it's definitely up there and I'm really happy. I just had to share. I can't stop smiling. *G*

Another book accepted, more stories sent off for those heart stopping waits that make all writers nuts. I've just signed the contract to a shortish story tentatively called, Sam, the Man, a hot little tale of gay love and lust, which is destined to go into the Phaze Fantasy VI anthology. Now all I have to do is write the darned thing. Shoon Joining, a sci-fi alien/human love? story has also just been taken by Phaze. I am so happy with Phaze it's nuts. (I bet you could tell that huh?)

But, I've also decided that I can't put all of my eggs in one basket and have taken the leap. Cobblestone Press has a quarterly magazine that I have been eyeing for quite some time now. So, I thought I'd give them a whirl. They take short stories and I just happened to have one called, Yes, She Can. Well, I sent it off and I'm back to the waiting game. Ugh.

And last, but definitely not least, there's this doctor/patient thing that's been accepted by loveyoudivine for a new venture they're going to be opening up soon. A Bedside Manor section where all manner of wickedness concerning doctors, patients, nurses and medical stories will be housed. That's coming in September. So, if you've got a liking for your doctor, or any other kink concerning healthcare, keep your eyes open for that.

Preening here. *G* I just got news that Rose from Romance at Heart has posted the review I just did with her. What a great bunch of questions! Wanna see? Wanna find out a little more about me? Oh heck, here's the url.

A couple of sites I'd love for you to try out and a plug for a new venture I've been lucky enough to be included in. M. Christian and Sage Vivant, the people who run Custom Erotica Source, are on the go again. Sage has a couple of sites for you to check out, a book to peruse and some upcoming new stuff.

The book, Your Erotic Personality, you can read about here And if you'd like to try the quiz, and who doesn't, check it out here I played at it and it's an eye opener for sure. Oh, and she's got a book trailer that is pretty awesome too. To see that, go here

Keep your eyes open in the next few months for more on this and the opening of Sage's Advice, which I'll be a part of, along with some of the best authors you'll find anywhere. I have a feeling this is going to be something big for me, and I can't wait for more news.

Check it out. I'm on YouTube. Yup, I made a movie trailer for Roses Have Thorns and plan on making more for other books and new ones as they come out. I've been a busy, busy girl and having a blast. Here's the URL:

What a tumultuous beginning of a year. Now there's a word, but it sure fits. As some of you may know, I've been with Venus Press for a couple of years pretty exclusively. Well, that stopped a few weeks ago. The owner of the company is nowhere to be found and the vice-president resigned. Wow. The authors were left no choice but to ask for their rights to their works back and to find new homes for it all. I'm one of them. I feel a little like a rat leaving the sinking boat.

The bad news is, well that was pretty much it. The good news, and there is quite a bit of it, is I've found two new publishers who are more than happy to help me get my work back up and for sale. I was actually invited to loveyoudivine, an exclusive, by invitation only, kind of artists colony online. Sounds kind of hippyish don't it? I love it. Claudia, the owner, is a dream to work with and I love the aura of the place. Check them out, I'm sure you'll love them too. Oh, and I got to experiment with making cover for the first time. I've even hornswaggled hubby into helping.

Phaze, an offshoot of Mundania Press, and run by Kathryn Lively, has been amazing. I submitted one story to them, hoping to get my foot in the door and have been overwhelmed with their willingness to re-publish some of my previously published works. I've got amazing new covers, check that out in the bookcovers section and stories coming out very soon with them, beginning in February.

Cream: The Best of the Erotica Readers and Writers Association is now available in print. I don't usually do this, but I'm going to add a little blurb about the book here. It's one of those I was thrilled to be a part of and I hope it does well.

Cream is a selection of short fiction previously published on the website of the renowned Erotica Readers and Writers Association (www.erotica-readers.com). For ten years, ERWA has offered free, high quality erotic writing by both renowned authors and newcomers. Every month the site publishes a new set of stories and "flash fiction" (erotica under 100 words). Each month's stories are selected by ERWA editors from dozens of submissions to "Storytime," a subscription-based email list and writing workshop.

Now, for the first time, Cream collects the most arousing and original work that has appeared on ERWA. It includes an introduction by Lisabet and Adrienne Benedicks, owner of ERWA, and of course, a story by Lisabet. Five different theme sections such as "La Petite Mort," "Erotic Sci Fi", "A Picture's Worth a Thousand Words", "Swinging and Swapping," and "Humorous Erotica," with several stories in each, comprise the bulk of the book. Also included is a non-theme section of general erotica, and a section of "flashers."

So, if you're in the mood for an incredible read, this might be just what you're looking for.
