@Miss Katia: Hellooooo and welcome from a fellow Canuck! Congrats on the soon-to-be-first book!! ^_~

Hugs,

[Alyne]

Welcome Katia!

[Ember-Raine, The Lady]

Hi Katia! Welcome!

[Angel]

Welcome, Katia! Hi everybody!

[Cass]

Hello, Katia! Kudos on writing on your first book! You've landed in the most supportive group around. These authors are amazeballs.

[Dee]

Ahem. *wipes crumbs from face* What? I totally did not bring cookies to the party and then eat them all before I got up the nerve to post... Definitely didn't do that. Not me. Nope. *whistles*

My name's Dee, and besides a weakness for baked goods (I just had to teach my 10-year-old niece what Rubenesque means), I love romance. Sweet, steamy, doesn't matter.

I'm currently working on my first erotic romance, and am a long way off from publishing it, but in the meantime, I'm excited to meet so many great people. Especially the ones with cookies. And scones. And... I mentioned my obsession with baked goods, right?

Haha, hiya, Dee!! (❛‿❛✿̶̥̥)

Super awesome to have you here with us!! And I am also a HUGE lover of baked goods, in fact I made cookies yesterday, and homemade ice cream which isn't baking but still sooooo good!!

So exciting that you're working on your first book!

[Dee]

Thanks, Jane! (Though it's not actually my first book, just my first e-rom, and first for this pen name.)

Mmm...Homemade ice cream! Send some my way, will ya? I've got a stubborn-as-hell hero and need as much sugar as possible to deal with him.

[Kara]

I am still attempting to remember to check in here more often. Since self-publishing my first novel in April, I cannot believe how much time I have to remember to dedicate to social media, marketing, and promoting. Whew, it's a lot of work but also an awesome experience; I have learned a lot from fellow indie authors. Just happy to be here and I'll keep on keepin' on :)

[Ember-Raine, The Lady]

Hi Miss Dee!! Congrats on your first erotic romance and just so you know all baked goods are welcome here! I know a certain mod who has an obsession with Krispy Kreme doughnuts! Lol! And now you're making me all snacks!! So glad to have you here!

[Ember-Raine, The Lady]

Hi Miss Kara! Yup it's super hard to remember all the social media stuff and still have time to write! At least once a month I end up telling my reader group that I have to go into hiding to finish a WIP lol! But I have given myself a super intense publishing schedule to though lol! Good luck!

[Annie, The Mistress]

Hiya, Misses Dee & Kara!!

Welcome to the party! Congrats on the soon-to-be erotic romance and the newly published novel!!!

Hugs,
Ann

P.S. Totes agree on the social media brain overload hahahaha!

P.P.S. Lady E, who's this Krispy Kreme-obsessed mod you speak of? Sounds crazy. ^_~

Yeah, it gets super manic sometimes.
I'm in final edits, kicking off a freebie project, putting a plan in place for a fb book launch, thinking of ads, chasing my book cover, trying to keep up my online presence...phew!

Good luck xx

[J.]

Welcome new people! So happy you're here with us!!

Yes, sometimes being an indie is a full-time job without the benefits of full-time pay ; )

[Madi]

Hi everyone!
I Just discovered this amazing group today, and I am already hooked!
I love to read and I love romance, all kinds of romance depending on my mood and state of mind.
After 7 years of being a full time mommy to 3 toddlers (plus my job as a translator) I am finally taking some ME time and working on my first novel, it's a process, and so far I am enjoying it, I love having these voices in my head telling me stories:)
I have a feeling I'm going to love being here!

Hi everyone! I'm JL, I'm a writer/reader from Australia. I write erotic romance, erotica, and read just about anything. :)

I don't have heaps out in the wild at the moment; just a self-published short story, You and I (free on Smashwords, and hopefully free on Amazon in the next week or two), and a novel coming out next month published by Siren-BookStrand.

Other than writing, I'm into martial arts and movies and hanging out with my kitties. :3 It's nice to meet you all. I'm looking forward to chatting with everyone. :)

[T.L.]

Welcome JL. Have a virtual welcome basket of your goodies of choice xx

I self-published my first book this year. Already started writing the second one. I have been addicted to reading romances the majority of my life. I have books everywhere around my home.

oh yea, this would be so great ;) - but there is still so much to do... reading over it for spelling mistakes, translating it into english, clarifying some copyright issues and so on...

[Annie, The Mistress]

@Miss Angel
You are most definitely in good company here with your love of romantic suspense!!

@Miss Marion
Congrats on writing the first novel and having it magically transform into a series. Love when this happens! (seriously) Oh, and what language are you translating from?

Welcome, ladies!!!

Hi and thnx ;),
yea my characters kind of developed an own life *lol*... There was actually this story in my mind when I started writing but then it somehow began to evolve more and more and suddenly I had a group of friends with each of them having own problems but also being connected to each other... Is this somehow understandable? But I don't know how to explain it in another way... :/
I wrote the story in German and have to translate it into English - actually US-English
xoxo Marion

Hi everyone, my name is Vanessa and I write with my husband, Dante. I joined this group a while back and am finally getting around to making my introduction. It's good to see some familiar faces (so to speak ;). We self-published our first novel this year and just published a novella as well. I'm feeling you all with the social media work load. >_<
