More Lovely Things!

So first off, I'm only in a bloody press release:

http://www.booktrade.info/index.php/showarticle/24187

I almost fainted. And Chloe Thurlow, KD Grace and Justine Elyot are going to be doing Xcite books, too! How amazing is that? They definitely are the creme de la creme of erotica, and am so happy for them. Especially my pal Justine, who deserves that end to the road to nowheresville more than anyone.

And then also, I've heard that the line up for Fairytale Lust has been approved by Cleis- and I'm in it! Having a story in this book is a great honour for me, not only because I've always wanted to write erotic fairytales, but also because Kristina Wright is a wonderful writer, an inspiration, and a lovely, lovely person. I was thrilled when she got this editing gig, and even more thrilled to have a story accepted by her.

Not only that, but I'm going to be rubbing shoulders with all sorts of fab peeps, like Justine Elyot, Saskia Walker, Jeremy Edwards, Janine Ashbless...I tell you what, when I first started out on this trail I never thought I'd get to be in books with the people I've looked up to for so long.

But anyhoo, my story is called The Return, and it's kind of based on something a little different. The Return of Martin Guerre- which isn't exactly a fairytale, but I've always felt it kind of is. Thankfully, Kristina agreed with me!

  1. Oh, The Return of Martin Guerre is just the sexiest premise for a story EVER!

    This is going to be a great anthology, I think.

    Justine- it really is. Feel like we've been scrubbing the hearth for months, then suddenly all of this. Just wish I wasn't terrified that it's all going to suddenly vanish, like The Little Match Girl.

    Sefi- Thanks, hon!

    Janine- Inorite? I tell you what, I used to have *dreams* about Martin Guerre. Sexy, sexy dreams. Just the idea of it- your husband returning only he's not your husband- is so goblin egg disturbing erotic that I can't stand it.

    And I agree- this is going to be an awesome antho.

    And thanks for the great shout-out. : )

    Does one get a 5-cent deposit back when one returns Martin Guerre?
