UPDATE: The winner is…Mary Ann Dean! *~*~* I attribute my overactive imagination to being an only child living in a rural area. It made the tedious chores go by faster and once I discovered the magic of books I started writing my own. I’ve kept journals of different stories since I was in elementary school, and as a college student with a tight budget, I found myself unable to get a close friend a birthday present. She was an artist…
UPDATE: The winner is…Colleen C! *~*~* Hiya, folks. I’m Kelly Violet, one of the authors in the Cowboys: A Boys Behaving Badly Anthology. It’s been a wild but fun ride for me as an author. At a young age, I fell in love with all things romance and that especially included the written word. From then on, I knew I wanted to write amazing romances filled with realistic characters and started filling my days with books and the brooding heroes we…
UPDATE: The winner is…ButtonsMom2003! *~*~* In one of my favorite video’s from when I was a kid, I was about five or six and I’m calmly sitting on the floor in a velvet dress, wearing one silver lame elbow-length glove and some very poorly applied burgundy lipstick, telling a very detailed story about an old lady, a chicken, and a fox. My three-year-old brother appears behind me and attempts to saw my head off with a piece of toy train…
UPDATE: The winner is…Mary McCoy! *~*~* If you ever meet me in person, know that if/when I get started talking, it’s difficult for me to stop. Not because I’m normally gregarious or outgoing, but the opposite. I’m also someone who likes to connect with others but knows that I’m pretty inept about it. It’s different on stage for me… While I have been trained as a “triple threat,” meaning that I can sing, dance, and act, I really enjoy the…
I’ve always loved books and telling stories. One of my earliest memories is my mom reading Charlotte’s Web to me before getting up in the morning, something we would do every day. I graduated quickly to other books including Anne of Green Gables and more, spending almost every day after school at the library while my mom worked. There was never enough romances in those books so I always rewrote the endings with more HEAs (happily-ever-afters), then I found the…
SILVER SOLDIERS: A BOYS BEHAVING BADLY ANTHOLOGY Editor: Delilah Devlin Deadline: March 15, 2022 SILVER SOLDIERS is open to all authors. Editor/Author Delilah Devlin is looking for stories for a romantic erotica anthology tentatively entitled SILVER SOLDIERS: A BOYS BEHAVING BADLY ANTHOLOGY. Why write a short story for this collection? Well, it’s certainly not about making a lot of money, so why do it at all? I’ve said this before, but here are my thoughts… Writing a short story for…
Hello lovely readers! I’m Jennie Kew, an award-winning Aussie author who writes contemporary slice-of-life erotic romance novels, and contemporary and paranormal short erotic stories. When not in front of my computer, I can usually be found reading a book, catching up on all the shows on my to-be-watched list on Netflix and Disney+, or building Lego. I live in regional New South Wales, a stone’s throw from Australia’s capital, Canberra, with my husband, my husband’s magnificent beard, a teenage giant,…
UPDATE: The winner is…Alisongail! *~*~* What an odd task, coming up with interesting tidbits to share with you, especially as I consider myself painfully entrenched in the oversharing side of TMI (Or maybe I’m not the only one to blurt in the middle of a PTO meeting the fact my gynecologist warms the speculum?). So what would you blog readers like to know about me? Hard to anticipate, since I feel like an open book (and not a very titillating…
So, yes, we’re still talking about Cowboys: A Boys Behaving Badly Anthology, and next week, we’ll start a new round of contests and discussion about the authors and their stories here on the Collections website (which reminds me I need to head over there tonight and close out some contests—hint!), but I’d like to begin thinking about what’s next because these volumes take time to put together. The first big decision is the theme for the book. As you can…
UPDATE: The winner is…Kim Wade! *~*~* Hunk of Burning Love by Delilah Devlin A woman accidentally sets her kitchen on fire while trying to catch the eye of a Texas firefighter I have this little series—5 books so far—called Cowboys on the Edge. I titled the series that because the small fictional town of Caldera sits on the rim of a deep canyon. I first “met” the hero of my short story in the first book in the series, Wet Down. He…
