Writing and Editing and Revising, Oh My!

[image error] So I have lots of writing news to share. And many new book release dates and covers, too (yay!) Here's a brief run down, followed by my current release schedule:

Some friends who write under the group name "The Sextet" asked me if I would like to contribute to some of the anthologies they're doing for Siren Publishing. Of course I said 'yes' because writing with friends is fun, it was an automatic sale and I like writing short spicy stories. I've turned in two stories so far and I think we're going to shoot for several more anthos in 2012.

The awesome CEO at Whispers Publishing, where I have one of my first books, Ruby Magic, contacted me to see if I wanted an updated cover (they were redoing some of their early cover art).  I proposed a new cover, new title and a sequel. She agreed and I'm working on finishing up the sequel now. I'm doing the new covers for those.

I got the rights back to some of my older books and have resold them to Whispers. I'm excited about this because two of the stories originally appeared in anthologies and now will be available as stand-alone e-books. I also did the covers for them.

So my current WIPs are 1) the Ruby Magic Sequel 2) a partial for a big house and an editor I would dearly LOVE to work with 3) The next Sextet anthology story.  A lot of this happened over the summer (when I wasn't blogging--too busy!) so the releases are coming up pretty soon:

November 21   "Believe it or Knot" in the Sextet's anthology Entanglements
December 16   "Naughty", a short that originally appeared in "Merry SeXmas".

December 19   "Thrice upon a Yuletide" in the Sextet's anthology Mistletoe and Menage
February 24   "Hart & Souls", a short that originally appeared in "Samhain Scorchers"

I have a couple other projects  I think could release in March and April, but don't have exact dates or info on that yet. All this is info updated regularly on my website, so if you want to know when my next book will be out, www.bethanymichaels.com is the place to go!

Tomorrow I'll be blogging about my first Sextet anthology, Entanglements, and posting some blurbs.
