UPDATE: The winner is…Mary Preston! *~*~* A long time ago, in a state far, far away from New England, the younger version of me dreamed of being a fairy princess (who didn’t?), a frontier doctor (move over Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman), and a mermaid. I wrote all sorts of stories, and I read so much that I’m pretty sure I strained the limits of the library of my small Minnesota town. Harlequin novels by the wonderful Betty Neels were my…
UPDATE: The winner is…miki! *~*~* May is nearly here, and it’s the final stretch of the school year. Even as merely a substitute teacher, I’m feeling very much the “What’s my Name? Who am I?” brain fatigue. And it’s also lacrosse season, which takes up the rest of the waking hours for my family. All of which is really too boring to blog about (and I’m honestly not sure I could cobble a cohesive blog together on any of those…
UPDATE: The winner is…flchen! *~*~* Hi! I’m N.J. Walters, and I’m thrilled to be in the Silver Soldiers: A Boys Behaving Badly Anthology. This is not my first time in one of these amazing collections. I was also in the Stranded: A Boys Behaving Badly Anthology, Blue Collar: A Boys Behaving Badly Anthology, and First Response: A Boys Behaving Badly Anthology. I love being a part of a collection with other authors. What’s extra special is that these are contemporary…
UPDATE: The winner is…Eileen Airey! *~*~* Once upon a time, in a not-so-tiny North Texas town lived a girl named Sukie whose mother was an avid romance reader. To Sukie’s dismay, her mom kept all the really juicy stuff on the fourth shelf behind her dad’s unassuming stack of Richard Marcinko books, believing this would keep Sukie from sneaking a peek. Fortunately, Sukie was persistent and maybe a little sneaky. Kidding aside, my romance journey began the way I imagine…
UPDATE: The winner is…Jennifer Beyer! *~*~* I’m so excited to be part of another Boys Behaving Badly anthology, and thank Delilah Devlin for putting together these sexy, romantic collections! I’ve written over thirty novels, novellas, and short stories since I first published in 2006. I love writing all different lengths—from a 1,000-word short, “A Perfect Match”, in Cleis Press’s Big Book Of Orgasms 2, to my two 4,000-word Boys Behaving Badly stories, “The Scoundrel”, in last year’s Cowboys and “Weathering…
UPDATE: The winner is…Debra Guyette! *~*~* Who is A.J. Harris? My alter-egotist? A pen name for my spicy and erotic work? All the above. But, also, a reminder of the people who (unknowingly) got me into writing ribald tales. The first was my sister. She calls me A.J., all the time, even though those aren’t my initials! She was also one of the two big romance readers in my house when growing up. It’s only fitting my name is a…
UPDATE: The winner is…Tiffany Miles *~*~* I wrote my first storyline on a dirty napkin while waiting for my husband who ran into Walmart to grab diapers for our two-month-old. Little did I know that just a short four months later that book, which started in a parking lot, would be my first published novel. The rest is history…and yet it’s not. Nearly one hundred published novels, three kids, a tiny zoo of dogs, cats, one goldfish that we rescued…
UPDATE: The winner is…Latifa Morrisette! *~*~* Conquests was the first anthology I self-published with my sister, Elle James. I’d been doing it for a few years with Cleis Press, but when that company sold to another, I was “orphaned,” meaning they were no longer interested in publishing romance anthologies. They still publish the best erotica anthologies out there (I’m in a few!). When I lost them as a publisher, I’ll admit, I was bummed because working on anthologies was a…
UPDATE: The winner is Debra S! *~*~* We’re still moving toward our release date of May 9th! I can’t wait until you get a chance to read the savory stories we showcase in Silver Soldeirs, but in the meantime, let’s celebrate another of our sexy anthologies, Blue Collar! Authors really went all out to provide a variety of settings and sexy encounters to prove that billionaires don’t have all the fun! 🙂 If you’d like to read more about what’s inside the volume,…
UPDATE: The winner is…Terra Oenning! *~*~* I’ve been editing and publishing short story collections for over a decade. I started putting them together for Cleis Press but beginning with Conquests: An Anthology of Smoldering Viking Romance, which I published in 2015, I went the indie route. Yes, the title is a bit over the top, but the stories…! I loved the experience, so once a year, until 2021’s Cowboys, I organized a new anthology. Why do I do it? It’s…
