Happy Kinky 2018!!
I’m glad to see 2017 go but, man, did it fly by!
I’m really excited about the new year, though. I’ve got some big, kinky plans!
First, I’m getting back into teaching and presenting. You can check out where I’m going to be on the Events page here on the site. I’ve really missed teaching, so I’m pretty stoked about getting out there again. I’ll be traveling around more, especially within the southeast, so if I’m in your part of town, come out and say hi! If you run a group or an event and are interested in having me come to you, check out my Classes page for topics and how to get in touch!
The other big thing for 2018 is both sad and happy. The sad part is that my publisher, Loose Id is closing its doors after thirteen years. Things will still be available to purchase through the first quarter of 2018, but there will be no new books.
LI is a really great company, run by four amazing women and they’ve always worked with integrity and honor. The closing is no different. Unlike other companies that have been run out of business by Amazon, they are ending on a high note. They are not in bankruptcy or otherwise struggling financially. They just see where things are going and are closing their doors before it gets so bad that they cannot manage their professional obligations. This is corporate responsibility. A whole lot of companies can learn from their example.
Okay, now for the happy. LI closing has lit a fire under my ass. Here’s the plan for the first quarter of 2018:
1. Sanctum Shorts: I’ll be writing two new short stories, to be called Sanctum Shorts, at least one featuring Caly & Evan from Caly’s Game. These stories are basically going to be hot, kinky scenes that the characters engage in.
These stories will be available in two ways. They will be up for purchase on Amazon, likely for .99. And they will also be given away for free if you sign up for my mailing list, to keep you updated on what’s going on in my world. There will be other Sanctum Shorts in the future, as well. There are a lot of characters in this kinky community, and I’m excited about introducing you to them!
2. Self-publish Caly’s Game: the rights to Caly’s Game will be reverting to me in March. I originally thought they were going to come back in January, and I was planning on self-pubbing by the end of the month, with the Sanctum Shorts in February, and then the new book (yes! There’s a new book!) in March. But with rights coming back in March, I think Caly’s Game and book two will both come out in the same month.
What this means for readers: Caly’s Game will be out in print in addition to e-book! I’m super excited about this! So I will also be able to carry some books with me to events I teach and present at, and I will have real, physical books to sign.
So watch this space around March for the official announcement! I’m giddy 🙂
3. Book two: It’s called Miriam’s Collar, and I’m about 85% done with the first draft. It’s about a widowed slave who is just coming back out into the community she and her Master helped to build. The hero is a sadistic top who has moved to the area and who always dismissed d/s as borderline abusive, but he’s finding himself more interested in it as he travels on his journey. They come to an agreement where he will re-introduce her to SM and she will teach him about d/s. Interesting things happen from there 😉
Okay, those are the major announcements about 2018! Exciting, right? Wooo!
