Writing News, NaNo, and a Giveaway

First things first - I have a huge post-Halloween Trick or Treat giveaway. I came home from Authors After Dark (look out for a longer blog on that later) with a big bag of goodies. Free books from Tease Publishing and Dorchester, author promos, and other good stuff. I'm taking names til November 5. Click here to enter - US winner gets the bag, international reader gets a gift certificate. Good luck!

Secondly, it's been a creative week. Waiting to hear on a submission made - a short M/M piece that is contemporary with a touch of strange magic...depending on how you read it. I should know by early November if it's accepted. If not, I just may make it available through DLP Books, which I really enjoy. I believe I'll always pursue publication through eBook and traditional channels, but there's something to having complete control of your work, right down to distribution and promotion. It's hardly a new concept, either, but the Internet makes it so much easier. I have one more reprint work to bring back from the vaults, then a few original shorts to share in the Dareville world - including a sequel to Daringly Delicious and one for Where Angels Dare to Tread.

For you Dareville readers out there, if there's something specific you'd like to see, I'm up for the challenge. A reader asked for a continuation of Daringly Delicious, so it's in the works. That is, along with the six thousand other WIPs I have.

I signed up for NaNo again, because I'm a masochist. My title keeps changing, but for now I'll call it Project Elvis and leave you guessing. It will be urban fantasy, not necessarily erotic, but I'm pantsing this one so we'll see.

Catch the Surge

Bloodlines 6: Surge released in ebook from Loose Id today!

Guess where Bloodlines 6: Surge is set? The Richmond, Virginia area and its suburbs! A very vital scene in the book happens at a local park.

Several of the Bloodlines books have been set in or around Richmond, including Blood Kiss, Night's Journey, and Bitter Love.

I'm really excited about sharing Cheyenne and Roc's story in Surge.

The blurb: Sexy dreams haunt the vampire Cheyenne as she struggles with her schizophrenia. Her call awakens the man from her dreaming. Only he’s not a man. He's Marroc. The first vampire ever made who took to ground a thousand years ago where he's simmered, feeding on souls and dreaming of Cheyenne, dreaming of taking her for his own.

When she releases him with her call, Roc goes to find Cheyenne, sure she is “the one” to help him defeat his enemy. She recognizes him from her dreams, and after a wild bout of sex, he discovers that her orgasms give him a surge of power. Orgasms with Roc also have a benefit for Cheyenne: they make her sane.

When one of her friends is taken by Roc's enemy, both Roc and Cheyenne will stop at nothing to get her back. The surge of sex gives them both what they've longed for. But can they have enough sex to survive the fight, and keep them together in the end?

Lisa Selvey moved to Necro Bay, just on the outskirts of Chesapeake, Virginia. She moved there because of its reputation for peace and quiet. To free herself of her nightmares. But her nightmares were just beginning. . .

Necro Bay was just your average American seaside town. The house she bought a normal home. The handsome man, Jacob Lindan that she met, nothing more than a sexually attractive man that whose touch made her mad with desire. Things nightmarishly changed and made her wonder if she wasn't going mad. Even worse, it made her wonder if something lurked in the shadows.

Great Review and a Great Deal!

I'm so happy to hear Whipped Cream Reviews loved Don't Dare the Reaper! They say in part:

This is a sweet short. I loved how close Cal and Sue are, yet how open a relationship they have. These things helped make them realistic and believable. Ms Ellwood keeps you wondering which way will they go. She does a great job propelling the plot along with hints from the sexy, grim reaper, Gil. Tack on a great happy ending and you've got a lovey afternoon read.

Read the whole thing. I'm so happy I'd like to offer everybody a change to save big on the story. When you go to Smashwords ONLY to buy Don't Dare the Reaper, enter the code VW52X to get this story for only 99 cents! This offer is good only through October 25, during Authors After Dark, so if you haven't bought the book yet now is the time to take advantage of this tricky treat.

New F/F Erotic Short Available!

I've planned for a while now to write at least one exclusively F/F short in the Dareville universe. This one had intended to be just a 2K quickie, but the story grew a bit and before I realized it I had written another Halloween short. So I figured why not make it available through the regular eBook channels?

Word on the street is there's a rising interest in Sapphic works, so if enjoy the genre I hope you'll give this one a shot.

Where Angels Dare to Tread
Erotica (F/F) - $1.29 eBook

Available from DLP Books for 99 cents!

eBook also available at the following merchants:
ARe
Scribd
Smashwords

October's Black Rose Festival comes to Dareville, along with a sexy party Carole Douglas can't wait to attend. While she hopes to catch more than a few interested looks with her skimpy angel costume, meeting the enchanting Bella Reeve has her ready to turn in her halo. Will the town's first Vamp Ball bring her love at first "bite"?

Devilish Good Time by JM Snyder

Devilish Good Time
by J.M. Snyder

Against his better judgment, Jacob goes to a Halloween party on campus where he runs into Bobby, a jock on the crew team he's been eying for a while. Problem is, guys like Bobby don't usually go for guys like Jacob.

Once they ditch Bobby's roommate and his girlfriend to find a little quiet time in New Jersey's Pine Barrens, it seems Bobby only has eyes for Jacob. But their tryst is soon interrupted. All those tales and legends about the Jersey Devil are just talk, right?

Right?

NOTE: This story appears in the anthology Creatures of the Night, Creatures of Delight published by Aspen Mountain Press and in my collection Shorts.

Pamela K. Kinney aka Sapphire Phelan--Love Halloween!







Halloween. The time when people dreamed of ghosts, werewolves, vampires and other things of terror. For me, it’s always been my favorite time of the year. The lingering scent of the candle-lit jack-o-lantern, reading scary stories, dressing up, and trick or treat.

Nowadays, I get to write those scary stories. As both Pamela K. Kinney and under the pseudonym, Sapphire Phelan, I write different types of tales. As Pamela, I even have two nonfiction books on the paranormal, Haunted Richmond, Virginia and Haunted Virginia: Legends, Myths and True Tales. Doing the research for these books has added fodder to my imagination for future fiction.

But let’s talk about Sapphire Phelan, and how she took the Deep Ones that H. P. Lovecraft wrote and made them the stars of a different erotic paranormal. Normally, I write erotic romances, with witches, demons, shapeshifters, aliens and more, but when I jokingly told my editor at Under the Moon about a short story, ‘Dark Eyes,” that I wrote and got accepted into an anthology, The Parasitorium: Parasitic Sands, deeming it a sort of Lovecraftian tale with sex with the monster in it, she thought it would b e a great idea for an anthology. Well, I wrote the novella, Unwitting Sacrifice, but the anthology never panned out. Instead she accepted it for Under the Moon. It is in both download and print form. And yes, the heroine has sex with Lovecraftian god/monster.

I’m sure Lovecraft is rolling over in his grave!

Blurb from Unwitting Sacrifice:
Lisa Selvey moved to Necro Bay, just on the outskirts of Chesapeake, Virginia. She moved there because of its reputation for peace and quiet. To free herself of her nightmares. But her nightmares were just beginning. . .Necro Bay was just your average American seaside town. The house she bought a normal home. The handsome man, Jacob Lindan that she met, nothing more than a sexually attractive man that whose touch made her mad with desire. Things nightmarishly changed and made her wonder if she wasn't going mad. Even worse, it made her wonder if something lurked in the shadows.


But the Lovecraft beasties aren’t the only monsters I have out for Halloween. Let’s try a tale set before and on Halloween, with a mortal who has a destiny to become a witch, but only if she allows one hunky demon Familiar to make love with her. If she doesn’t, well, let’s just say Armageddon just might kill her. Along with the planet.

Quite a dilemma for poor little Tina. But believe me, Charun will work on convincing her. After all, before he became a Familiar he had thousand years of Incubus under his belt.


CONTEST
And in honor of Halloween, I will be giving away a download of Unwitting Sacrifice and a download of Being Familiar With a Witch. You have to answer a question. What is the name of the town Lisa comes to live in? The answer is in the post above. The winner will be chosen at random from all correct entries.


Contest ends Saturday, October 17, 2009 at midnight EST. The winner will be announced Sunday, October 18, 2009 here at the blog. So check back Sunday to see if you've won! Good Luck!

Must be 18+ to enter. The odds of winning depend upon the number of participants.Contest void where prohibited by law.

The Tattooed Heart by JM Snyder

Cover for The Tattooed HeartThe Tattooed Heart
by J.M. Snyder

Available in e-book format!

Chris and Lee have been best friends since the fourth grade. Now in their thirties, Chris rents a booth at Tattoo 804 where he makes a living as a tattooist. His own art is hidden in a portfolio behind his desk-his clients always want him to copy a design or character someone else has drawn, and none ever ask for any custom ink. To satisfy his artistic cravings, Chris coerces his friend Lee to stop by after hours for free tattoos in exchange for letting Chris design whatever he wants.

Lee's body is a shrine to Chris's artwork. Every tattoo he has is a custom creation from his friend, whom Lee has loved for years. Though both are gay, Lee has never had the courage to let Chris know how he feels, and it pains him to watch Chris flit from boyfriend to boyfriend in search of Mr. Right when Lee would gladly claim that title.

Chris's latest boyfriend, Barry, is in a local band and sounds absolutely wonderful ... Lee hates him already. But when all Chris can talk about is Lee's latest tattoo, Barry feels like a third wheel and their budding relationship sours. What will it take for Chris to realize the lover he's looking for has been sitting in his tattoo chair all along?
