Found homes for two of my books!

Rogue Phoenix Press has contracted me for my Paranormal Western Erotic Romance ebook Soul Mate! I am excited and look forward to working with them on this as well as possible future books!

Silver Publishing has contracted me for my Erotic Fantasy Romance ebook Elemental Seduction - The Dance! I am also excited and look forward to working with them on this as well as possibly the other three books in that series. If accepted by them and completed, this could go to print!

Both ebooks will be available in February 2012! This should be an interesting month!

So...I'm focusing on these as well as continuing to write. The first book in Elemental Seduction is based on the element Wind. I'm finished writing the second one based on Fire but I may wait a few more months before submitting it. That leaves Earth and Water left to write. That's my project and focus with Silver Publishing. For Rogue Phoenix Press, I think I may continue with writing another paranormal ghost-based story possibly set a western theme to offer continuity. Hopefully, these two publishers will like my completed works. I find that the busier I am, the more productive and creative I become so multiple projects work very well for me.

The old publisher for Dark Moon Harvest (Cacoethes Publishing) folded upsetting me tremendously. They folded just before my two book signings came about. A bookstore in Orangeburg, SC was prepared to put my name up on their sign and host a huge book signing as well as ordering a large quantity of my books and placing them on the front shelves. I have to say that I was heartbroken about that experience because I met with them to plan this and they too were excited about having a local artist come in. The other book signing was arranged with a local coffee house in Lexington, SC because I loved the ambiance and thought that having it there would be perfect since books, art, internet, and coffee go so well together. Needless to say, we were both disappointed.

So, here I am...very excited about my two new publishers. I am also in re-write with Dark Moon Harvest. I'm ready to find a home for it. I'm leaning toward Harlequin Nocturne but I'll see. Haven't made up my mind. With this book, I also have a series with different main characters outlined for it. Busy, busy, and loving it. And yes. I work fulltime and as a nurse and will be taking some classes in the fall.

I welcome any comments!

Live to write, write to live!
