Back in the Saddle…AGAIN!

Back in the saddle, as in, I have a book release!!!

I’ve sold my urban fantasy to Ellora’s Cave, the publishing company I released my erotic romance novella, Again, with. A few years ago, EC only published books with erotic content. This is the main reason why I didn’t consider placing Skinwalker (now titled, Tainted Love) with them. Skinwalker was an urban fantasy with romantic elements. After doing revisions on Skinwalker and increasing the romantic elements so the book would be a romance; however, I began to look at my options again. New York pubs are fantastic, but with the invent of e-readers like Kindle, the face of publishing has changed. It’s possible to publish with smaller publishers (or even self-publish) and reach a much wider audience than ever before. E-readers have changed the world of fiction for readers and writers. This fact, combined with Ellora’s Cave’s new Blush Line, made this a very easy decision for me. The Blush Line is for romance books that either don’t contain any sexual content or sexual content without the frank language of erotic romance stories. Blush Line romances are more mainstream. For example, an Adrienne Kama (my erotic romance pen name) book would never be considered for the Blush Line.

So, I’ve finished up all my contract paperwork and will be looking at conferences to attend in 2012. I’d love to get back to Romantic Times. The next one is in Chicago! Those are always fun events that give writers an opportunity to meet their readers face to face. Although, with my last release in 2007, I don’t think I have any readers at the moment! lol

It feels good to a story coming out!

Stay tuned for updates on Tainted Love!!!
