SHE-SHIFTERS is a go!

The new contest announcement will go up tomorrow because I have news I can't wait to tell!

It's funny that I wrote yesterday morning's post, asking authors to remain patient for news about the final lineup for Beastly Babes, and yesterday afternoon, I received acceptance from the publisher! That's the way it works, though. Put a thought out there in the ether…

Anyway, I'm extremely excited to announce that Beastly Babes, now She-Shifters: Lesbian Paranormal Erotica (with or without the hyphen, I'm not sure ) is a go!

And just to give you a hint about what you'll find inside this volume, this is what I said in the introduction of the book.

Usually, the idea of shapeshifting creatures is one meant to elicit shivers of horror. But imagine the possibilities if the animal lurking under the skin of a woman was searching for love. Even a demon with fangs and fur can long for a tender caress. Imagine again, a human who discovers her most erotic fantasies embodied in a wild, untamable lover.

Inside She-Shifters, you'll discover how it feels to be embraced inside the warm, feathered wings of a phoenix, explore faded memories of a past life to find your one true love, race through a rain forest morphing from tiger to kingfisher, and watch your lover surrender her seal's pelt to walk hand-in-hand with you along a cold and lonely shore.

Love comes running, slithering, flying—in all shapes of desire.
