I’ve been very fortunate to be associated with wonderful publishers (like Liquid Silver Publishing (my first publisher), Siren-Bookstrand, and now, Black Velvet Seductions (aka BVS)). I think you would enjoy books from any of them, but right now I’d like to tell you more about BVS.
Yes, this is a shameless plug, but I wouldn’t talk about BVS here if I didn’t feel strongly about the brand. I can vouch for the fact that BVS publishes all kinds of romance, from, well from me to my partner in crime, Jan Selbourne, who writes historical romance. Writers like Alice Renaud, Patricia Elliott, Callie Carmen (just finished Nicolas and you should try it!), K.L. Ramsey, Suzanne Smith, and many others whose books I’ve been enjoying in the last year will make your heart happy. BVS searches out some of the best writers and pairs them with some of the finest graphic artists around (Jessica Greeley is especially talented!) for covers. Ric Savage, the man who runs BVS, strives for excellence in every aspect of the publishing process. Honestly, I’ve never worked with a publishing house who does more to help authors present their books to the readers.
So how can you find out about BVS? New books and special deals are showcased in the newsletter. I chatted with Ric Savage who runs BVS and asked what his vision is for the publishing house. He told me, “In the 5 years I have managed BVS, it has been my goal to get the books of our talented authors in the hands of romance readers. We like to get to know our readers and what they think. We are constantly looking to get their views and reactions to the stories. I have always seen that as a two-way street, and I think it only right to offer readers a chance to read our books at favorable prices. We offer new books to preorder at 99 cents. We also offer freebies at times. A way of keeping in touch is through our newsletter. It is very simple to be an Insider, you just sign up to our newsletter, and we will keep you up to date with freebies, deals, and our latest news!”
I hope you do subscribe! It’s an honor to be among some of the best romance writers and to work with BVS. I know you will agree.
I am very proud and happy to work with BVS. They are lovely and do all they can to support their authors whilst giving them creative freedom. I love the fact that Ric accepted my second book without even looking at the sales of the first… because he liked the story, and that’s what matters most to him. BVS authors are a fantastic bunch and our books are well worth checking out! Thank you Dee!
Dee,
That was a lovely and true description of the atmosphere with BVS. All of the authors are wonderful and it is a pleasure working with Ric and Maz at Black Velvet Seductions.
Thank you, Dee I love your books too.
Callie
Congratulations everyone with the books!
