I’ve known Vivi for several years now—as a friend, and as one hella talented writer! I couldn’t have been more thrilled when she submitted a story for Girls Who Bite, and when I read it, I knew I had the story I wanted to set the tone for the entire book… Delilah Devlin Here’s an excerpt from Vivi’s sexy story, “Bloody Wicked”: A soft, warm breeze tickled the leaves of the grand oak trees as I stepped out of the…
UPDATE! The winner of the free download, by random number generator, is…wynterapple! Wynter, email me at delilah@delilahdevlin.com to arrange delivery of your prize! ~DD *~*~*~*~*~*~* Since Amazon jumped the gun and is selling Girls Who Bite before the September 13 release date, today’s post can’t really be “15 Days to Girls Who Bite.” I’d planned a fun countdown to run up until the date of release, and being the stubborn person I am, I’m going to stick to the original…

The rest of you, stay tuned for more giveaways! *~*~*~*~*~*~* by Victoria Oldham The vampire myth has been around as long as people could come up with stories about other people. And stories about women who have gone “bad” have been around for nearly as long, even making it into a book studied by people for the last two thousand years. Lilith,…
I read a lot of urban fantasy with strong heroines and I noticed a depressing trend over the years—the leading ladies seem to constantly mess up their love lives in each book! I understand we all like to read flawed characters, who are much more like real life, but do they all have to struggle in their personal relationships? When I started writing, it was purely as a means to escape. I wrote a vampire story where the main characters…
It’s a thrill to be here amongst the vampire-lovers; paranormal/fantasy fiction, erotic or otherwise, is one of my first loves, and I started out writing in the fantasy genre (or at least my alter-ego Connie Wilkins did.) I haven’t been writing or editing as much of it lately as I’d like to, but I’m working on remedying that lapse. I do have a gargoyle/demon erotica piece, one of my rare straight stories, in Kristina Wright’s Dream Lover anthology, and a…
**UPDATE! We have a winner! Jen B. will receive the stunning photo of the rose! Jen, contact delilah@delilahdevlin.com so that she can forward your snail mail address to Anna!** *~*~*~*~*~*~* by Anna Meadows I don’t make much of a secret out of the fact that I have a type. Kate Moennig on “Young Americans” was my high school crush. If I still had a locker, the inside of the door might have a magazine tear-out of Rachel Maddow. Dykey, butch,…
A guest blog about nothing Remember the old Jerry Seinfeld sitcom? For a few episodes they talked about creating a new TV show. When pitching the idea, they were asked what it would be about. “Nothing. It’s a show about nothing,” they exclaimed as if it were a brilliant concept. Part of the joke for the viewer was the parody they were making of their own show. At a book signing for my first mass market paperback, an intellectual reader…
Red Velvet and Absinthe: Paranormal Erotic Romance might seem like a rather unusual choice of theme to appear right on the heels of the recently released Pride and Prejudice: Hidden Lusts, my raunchy retake on the Jane Austen classic, but I say hey, why not? I prefer to do different kinds of projects rather than getting stuck in a groove. So to go from sexual madness and mayhem in Meryton, Netherfield, Pemberley and Hunsford Parish to sexy Gothic thrills and…
I just returned to the Northwest after an amazing week in New York. I spent the first night of my vacation in Saugerties so I could watch a horse show. It was a rare opportunity for me to see Olympic team members, Grand Prix champions, and some of the top hunter riders in the country competing live, and not on television. I even recognized riders whose images covered the walls of my bedroom when I was a teen—the horse lover’s…
Ohh… vampires! I so love vampires! For that matter, I love paranormal anything. Vampires, ghosts, shapeshifters, demons. Dark and sexy alpha males (and females!) who are more than what they seem… Is it just me or does your imagination conjure up all sorts of delicious possibilities when you hear the word paranormal? There is an element of the taboo in lusting after someone who is potentially dangerous, but in the world of paranormal fiction it’s not only expected, it often…
