RAB to Publish First Book on Pop Star Lorde
“Lorde: Your Heroine, How This Young Feminist Broke All the Rules and Succeeded” released by Riverdale Avenue Books
- New York Times Bestselling Author Marc Shapiro Writes the First Book About Grammy-Winning Artist Lorde -
Riverdale, NY – March 19, 2014 – The innovated hybrid publisher Riverdale Avenue Books is proud to publish the first book on Grammy winning artist Lorde. Lorde: Your Heroine, How This Young Feminist Broke All the Rules and Succeeded by New York Times bestselling author, Marc Shapiro examines the career of this 17 year-old New Zealand musician who just won her first two Grammys for her hit song "Royals."
“When this manuscript came in, I couldn’t put it down. I could not believe that such a young woman could have such an inspiring life!” said Lori Perkins, Publisher of Riverdale Avenue Books. “She is the voice of her generation.”
Lorde: Your Heroine, How This Young Feminist Broke All the Rules and Succeeded explores the many facets of Lorde including her feminist viewpoints, how intellectually inclined she is, and her talent for writing meaningful music. Shapiro shows over the course of a year how Lorde’s career went from complete obscurity to superstardom.
"The intriguing thing about writing about Lorde is that she is so damned contrary to everything that pop music has become," said author Marc Shapiro. "She's a true intellect whose songs have been guided by great authors and deep thinkers rather than the predictable template of current pop music. She's smart, creative, a true individual and only 17. Stories that are too good to be true but that ultimately are just that makes a biography of Lorde truly something special."

The Hunger Gays Just Pubbed By RAB
Riverdale Avenue Books’ Releases The Hunger Gays
The Hunger Gays by Nathan Alexander is a Takeoff of the Blockbuster Movie, The Hunger Games
Riverdale, NY – December 11th, 2013 – With box office receipts in the hundred million dollar range for the blockbuster movie “The Hunger Games,” fans of erotic romance will be anxious to read Nathan Alexander’s interpretation of this popular movie in “The Hunger Gays”, now on sale at Riverdale Avenue Books.
“We expect this title to make the Amazon gay and lesbian best seller list just like our previous pop culture sensation, 50 Shades of Gay,” said publisher Lori Perkins. “I am so pleased that a M/M novel can break through as an homage as part of a pop culture sensation and not be a niche title because both men and women love these books.”
The Hunger Gays explores a world where men are the objectified gender. This allows readers to see what it’s like to be a man, coming of age in a world where women are dominate.
The book ultimately calls into question what defines masculinity, using traditional elements of erotica to explore masculinity, blurring the lines between what separates a man from being straight or gay.
The Hunger Gays forces its participants to choose a position when they enter the competition: top or bottom. The position determines their fighting method. Our main character, Aspen, is 19 years and not entirely sure what he wants. A central struggle of this story is Aspen forcing himself into the role of a bottom because that’s what he thinks he is. Readers will slowly see that Aspen has top tendencies and sports a very dominant personality.
Just because the main character is young doesn’t mean the rest of the cast is. The best part of the Hunger Gays saga is that it opens up the door to different types of gay men- bears, twinks, skinny, fit, silver fox, and husky. Each character participating in the competition will be a unique archetype of the kind of real men you find out in life. There are no cookie cutter types.The Hunger Gays

Riverdale, NY – November 1, 2013 – Innovative New York publisher Riverdale Avenue Books is holding a NaNoWriMo publishing contest with a chance to win a book contract.
NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) is an annual event that takes place in November where aspiring writers are challenged to begin the novel they have always wanted to write. Participants start writing their 50,000 word novel at midnight on November 1st and they have the whole month to complete it.
“I think it’s amazing that we have a national month devoted to encouraging writing,” said Lori Perkins, Publisher of Riverdale Avenue Books. “I see NaNoWriMo writers as artists and athletes, and I know that the work they produce becomes some of our cultures' best and brightest. I wanted to give those writers an opportunity to share their best work. I'm a big believer in immediate gratification, so publication within 12 months should be a nice carrot on the stick."
Submit your 50,000-80,000 word novel in the genres of erotica, erotic romance, horror, science fiction, fantasy, and LGBT fiction to Riverdale Avenue Books by December 1, 2013 for consideration. Riverdale Avenue Books’ team of editors will evaluate the submissions and choose first place winners, as well as honorable mentions, from each genre for publication by Riverdale Avenue Books.
Winners will be notified by email by February 1, 2014. Each book chosen will be eligible for standard contract terms, including publication as both print and ebook. The winning books will be published in 2014.

Memoirs of a Gigolo, Volumes 1-4, Delightfully Dirty
I love these books. I love reading about the sexual adventures of this contemporary rake. He is so much fun.
So, I am personallythrilled to announce that RAB has just pubished the print and ebook edition of the best-selling MEMOIRS OF A GIGOLO Omnibus, Vol 1-4, by Livia Ellis.
In the first Omnibus Edition of the sexual adventures of titled British Lord Oliver Adair, we read as he becomes a high-end male escort and travels the globe (Tokyo, Bangkok, etc.) bedding a Latin pop star, two princesses, and a beautiful Russian fellow escort as charming and duplicitous as himself.
"Once you start following these adventures, you won't be able to stop reading and will be waiting breathlessly for the next installment about this contemporary rake. And you might find yourself wishing you could afford his attentions,” said RAB publisher Lori Perkins.
Said author Livia Ellis about working with RAB, “I'm thrilled to be working with Lori Perkins and RAB. Publishing is in flux. Teaming up with a publisher at the nexus of this rapidly changing industry is just the push I need to take the next step in my writing career."
Livia Ellis claims to be a perpetual student currently at Trinity College, Dublin. She has a vivid imagination and is sexually adventurous but only on paper. She is a Californian at heart while living in Europe for more than a decade. She is a fluent French speaker and she seeks readers who enjoy what she writes.
