Hello Fellow Writers,
Oh boy, I've got big news. I'm so excited I just had to share. Remember how I wrote a kinky Christmas story, hoping to be part of the Ellora's Cave "Merry Kinkmas" anthology they are coming out with this Christmas? Well, I just got word from my editor that my story "Ginger-Figged for Christmas" (tentative title) is not really fetishy or kinky enough for "Merry Kinkmas". Apparently ginger-figging is too common to be considered kinky! LOL
Bummer, right? Nope! She wants me to add a few things and said if I'm willing to do that then she'd like to offer me a contract on it as a stand-alone book.
And as I'm sure you can imagine, I'm willing! My editor has a real knack for knowing how to make a story shine, so her suggestions will come in handy when I start revising (and lengthening) my Christmas story.
The funny thing is, I was planning on spending this week reworking my WIP Hollywood Spank to include the revisions my beta-readers suggested, but now I'm putting Hollywood Spank aside to work on the Christmas story.
I am over-the-moon happy to have sold my second book. I'm kind of in shock that it actually happened :) Wish me luck revising tomorrow, and good luck to you too!
Yours Truly,
Shoshanna Evers
Congrats Shana!! I think they may have found a new star writer at EC!!! Good luck with your revisions.
ReplyDeleteLOL thanks Heather! We'll have lots to discuss at Panera :)
ReplyDeleteHi Shana!
ReplyDeleteGreat news!
Best of luck.
Awesome!
ReplyDeletethanks guys :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like the title will probably be changed to "Ginger Snap", which I think is much nicer.
ReplyDeleteShana, I'm really pleased for you. Makes me feel like a fairy godmother.
ReplyDeletelol thanks Janet! I never would have thought to try writing erotica for publication if you hadn't talked about it at lunch that day after a HVRWA meeting. :) Before that, all the erotica I wrote had only a readership of one: my hubby!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations - wonderful news - you are on a roll!!!!
