So you want to publish a book? After dealing with a situation that made me feel powerless, I've decided to create a series of posts which will include warnings and advice for aspiring authors, as well as information for my beloved readers who need to know what's going on. Please check the bottom of the post for links to other Noble authors for more information. ~~~ This is a wonderful time for authors! There are so many options out there to bring your work to your readers. Literally hundreds of ebook and traditional publishers (which will both be lumped into trad pub in these posts just to simplify) are looking for authors, going through thousands of emails every day, and they are not just looking for the next EL James, Stephenie Meyer, or Amanda Hocking (yes, the last is self-pubbed, but I'm making a point! :^P ). Publishers know there are many wonderful authors out there that won't sell bazillions, but whom readers will love. To top it off, if you're the...

**NOTE** A scheduling mishap on my part made it so my blog is in 2 hops at the same time. The only way I could think to fix this is by doubling up the prizes! The First Blog hop ends July 17th, so I will announce the first winners then. Thanks for your understanding :)  This is so the perfect Blog Hop for the Dartmouth Cobras! What makes it even more fitting is that these particular Cobras develop a very different relationship through the course of the 3rd book in the series, BREAKAWAY. I could tell you more, but I think I'll let the excerpt speak for itself! ;)   Check out the bottom of the post for prizes and don't forget to comment for your chance to win!  Rubbing his lips as he shook his head, he moved towards a bookshelf and picked up the first familiar book, Strangers by Dean Koontz . On another shelf he found a bottle of Jamaican rum and a tumbler which he filled before bringing the book and the glass to the chair. Not like he'd be able to sleep anyway....

Yesterday I posted about books coming out within the next few months. Today I'm going to answer a question that's been coming at me a lot lately.  When is the next Deadly Captive book coming out?  Some may recall that I was hoping to get it out some time this summer, but those plans have changed. Why, well, because the Deadly Captive books take completely changing my mindset from the way I write my other books. I have to push myself in a whole new direction and basically convince myself that things that are painful and repulsive to some is erotic and fascinating. Why? Because I couldn't write that way convincingly if I didn't believe it. For those that have read Collateral Damage, you know there's a needle play scene. That was particularly difficult to write, and still might not seem pleasurable to some, but to others it has exactly the impact I worked so hard to get across. It is a sensual scene that connects the characters in a way nothing else they'd do...

This is VERY late, but I've finally gotten to put all the entries together and pick out the winner, who is . . . . Joanne B! You will be contacted for your details shortly. In other news, as those who follow me on facebook know, I have been working on the 3rd Dartmouth Cobras book, BREAKAWAY, which I hope to release near the end of the summer. I have also been working on another book which will likely appeal to the fans of DEADLY CAPTIVE, but it will not be Urban Fantasy. It will be dark and it will push your limits in new ways. I can't wait to share it with you! For now, for those who haven't seen it, I will share the cover:   To give you an idea of what you're in for, here's a snippet from TOILE: Copyright Bianca Sommerland 2012 Goosebumps covered my naked body as Solvent circled me, slowly, measured steps almost soundless. Despite the brisk temperature outside, he had his air conditioner on full, stirring the air with a winter col...
