Hurray!

I just heard back from my publisher about my first erotica novel.

He loved it!

He asked me "could it be a trilogy?" and I said, "well, maybe, I'd rather see how well it sells first".

Don't know exactly when but it should be out in 2006.

Just needed someone to show my good news and I seem to have lost my alt newsgroups I'd normally post to about this.

Hhmmmm......

Woohoo! Be wary of series, I've had a lot of talks with my sci-fi geek friends about how tired they are of series that never end...

Congratulations. Outlets are getting harder and harder to find.

Its not anywhere online yet -- the publisher just finished reading it and I don't put my unpublished stuff up anywhere unless I send parts of it to my yahoogroups group.

If you all want to see some of my writing though I can send you to my website (old version, still not revised) but I don't think the rules here allow me to post that, do they?

I have four collections of short erotic fiction (or variations of "short") out before.

"Punishment for the Crime"
"Amazons: Erotic Explorations of Ancient Myths"
"Justice and other erotic tales"
"Eroscapes: Erotica from the Mind of TammyJo Eckhart"

Only the last one is still in print. Being in a very specialized genre sales are small but I mostly write for myself and am just please to make spare money and protect what I write before I sale it.

Thank you everyone. I was worried this was too egotistical a post but I was just so happy with the news.

This may turn out to be a mixed blessing. It's likely that being an erotic author gets you on a list for the NSA to monitor all your communications.

ah -- I'm making that up (I hope). Congrats!

I'm totally out and have been for a decade plus now with my erotica work. They can monitor whatever they all like....

If anyone wants my website to read samples of my published work, just send me a note and I think I can give you the link then. The site is completely free, I'm not a professionally anything other than a writer and an educator -- I get paid in royalties and salaries.

Congratulations!

I know several people that have struggled and struggled to get published (and two of them are excellent writers.) Tough gig - you must be very talented.
