New Contract from Changeling Press!
Changeling Press accepted my story May Day! Not only that, I shared the winner's circle with Author Selena Blake in a contest I wasn't even aware of when I submitted. So it looks like I, along with Selena, have won a years worth of advertising at The Romance Studio also. A contract, free advertising, and one more publisher to add to my ever-expanding list . . . I'm tired just thinking about it.
Though I intended to write a more humorous story when I set out to write May Day, this one's ended u...

Review: Number Theory by Noah Bogdonoff
Number Theory (LGBT Voices) by Noah Bogdonoff
Diversity (Minority Short Story Line)
Untreed Reads PublishingA high school boy finds out that in both love and algebra, solving for 'x' may not always get you the result you expect.
Review:
When I heard this new short story from Untreed Reads Publishing was written by an 18 year old, I was compelled to purchase it immediately. I'm extremely pleased I did too! Number Theory is a quick read at only 1570 words, but it was well worth the buck and...

New Release ~ Forsaken
Untreed Reads Publishing officially announced that my first story in The Zagzagel Diaries: Forsaken has been released! I'm excited about this series. Focuses on GLBT issues with more seriousness than my other fiction, but of course I couldn't leave out the sarcasm.
Check Forsaken out! Here's the link: http://www.untreedreads.com/?page_id=1150

Rated 4 Delightful Divas by Kathy!

" One thing that I've noticed in this and other stories by this author is that Bryl takes readers on a journey of emotional self-discovery along with the characters. As readers we are not only entertained but find for ourselves a nugget of truth in our lives.
If you've not read anything by Bryl R. Tyne and you enjoy stories that are beyond the everyday, then Coin Operated Boy may be just the vehicle for discovering the talent of this author." ~ Read...

Forsaken
Thought about suicide. Again.[image error]
Not of my own . . . not that the thought's never crossed my mind, but no. I got news that my short story, Forsaken, was accepted by Untreed Reads Publishing. Naturally, I beamed but then recalled the story's subject and again, I remembered the suicide of a young man barely out of his teenage years. When this youth's untimely death came back to me all these years later, I fashioned a story from the memories. This was months ago.
The incident, actually, happened...

Two great reviews this week!

Lisa @ Joyfully Reviewed liked my smutty little Val & Kendra tale. Here's what she had to say, "Fast and fun plus horny and kinky, Ignited is a hot tale with an eye opening twist or two." You can read her full review HERE.
[image error]And I was extremely happy to read this next review of the Western Anthology, Cocked & Fully Loaded. I was wondering how readers would take my M/M/T-girl menage in the midst of an anthology with M/F pairings, but so far, they've apparently loved it!
