Guest Post – Izzy Van Swelm dipping a toe in the publishing pool

First of all I would like to thank Elin very much for allowing me to do my first guest post as Izzy van Swelm. The imminent release of my first book is much in my mind, so I want to talk a little about my experiences with the process thus far.


This post also comes at a time when in the LGBTQ romance community, we have witnessed what is generally called ���author���s behaving badly.��� If I had been as new to social platforms, as I am to publishing, I may well have thrown my hands up and said �...

Book Blast – KC Wells’ A Bond of Three


Blurb: In the kingdom of Teruna, the red-cloaked Seruani teach the Terunans the art of love. Taken from their homes at seventeen to be trained, they are shunned as outcasts by society and considered the lowest of the low. So when Prince Tanish falls in love with the Seruan Feyar, the man who took his virginity and the only one to share his bed, he is not about to declare that love.

New Release – Dirty Laundry by Paula Sophia


Dirty Laundry

By Paula Sophia

Whether a cop on the make, a seminary student, or a college kid trying to stay pure, nobody avoids the soil of circumstance. Some try to hide from themselves, others embrace who they truly are. But nobody gets away clean.

I���m reluctant to make this a facebook group, simply because it���s harder to regulate. I���...

Saturday Recommendations

readingI’ve been burning the post-midnight oil again. With a brain whose Hamster Wheel of Doom has been taken over by lemmings, 3 am is a time to catch up on reading.


Traditionally the first post of the New Year should be a round up of my favourite reads of the year but there have been so many of them – books written by boys or��by girls , by dear old friends, by people of whom I’m in far too much awe to presume to call them friend and by people who, frankly, I have no idea who they are – and, ya kno...
