Is anyone interested in having a self-pub/Indie promo group?

Although I was published in the conventional sense years ago (another pseudonym) and now once again contracted to a US publisher, I am nonetheless self-pubbing historical romance novellas. Why you might ask. Simply because I see no point in subbing them to publishers and not one of the latest releases has met with a submission editor's desk at a publishing house.

Hope that it's OK for me to post this, here, but it's a great comp, just right for writers of romantic fiction. And who can resist the lure of money and chocolate?

 

 

Choc Lit are looking for short stories of up to 1,500 words in which the central theme is chocolate – eating it, drinking it, cooking with it, or anything else. Let your imagination take…

How often should a new writer blog?

As you know my website and blog launched yesterday. http://www.emilyharvale.com. 

I'm new (this year) to the whole concept of writing to be published - I write because it's fun - so I'm not sure if there's a 'tried and tested' procedure for blogging.

I know some writers/authors blog once a week whilst others only do so when they have something in particular to 'say'.

My blogs are not going to be exclusively about…

Movember support

I don’t usually do this – but my boyfriend Mark is growing a moustache during November (Movember) to raise money for testicular cancer, and is hoping to raise a good amount. If you know of anyone looking to donate a dollar/pound towards sponsoring Movember you can do so on his page. http://uk.movember.com/mospace/2724598/

 

Thanks so much,…

Romantic Times

I've just heard that my first novel Reprobate Lord, Runaway Lady, has been nominated for an award in the US by Romantic Times.  As a relative newcomer to romance writing, actually any writing, I haven't a clue as to how important or otherwise this is but my editor tells me that it's definitely a Good Thing!
