PUBLISHING:
Highly acclaimed, Immediate Direct Publications leading the field with ‘Midnight Street‘.
Sam’s Dot Publishing produces many publications including ‘Aoife’s Kiss’.
Whispers of Wickedness is always nicely atmospheric.
Authors Network is an excellent resource run by author and editor Karen Scott. She has written ‘The Internet Writer’s Handbook’ and ‘A Writer’s Guide to the Internet’. Read her list of memberships, and services on the website. Assistant editor, is Diana Hayden.
Before you get lost in the wealth of information at Authors Network, I would like to suggest that you take the time to view the Mission Statement. It simply and accurately depicts ‘the internet’ with regard to the concerns of the ‘writer’. Although I would like to stress there is nothing like reading from the printed page, the internet has provided access to several new forms of publishing, both in print and in electronic form. It is also a reference at your fingertips. In addition, as I have often stressed, there is a difference from a hobby writer who is entirely happy presenting their work on a personal site, and sites that are professionally run and dictate standards.
FOR WRITERS AND READERS:
There are a number of yahoo groups for both writers and readers of modern cross-genre romance novels to join. You can chat to authors and read news of their work. These are just a few of them:
Aspen Mountain Press Community
Coffee Time Romanc (yahoo group)
(forum)
Forbidden Fruit Zine is online magazine run for just the reason the banner says but all readers are welcome. Now under new management but originally started by author Fiona Glass, who is another UK writer who offered me so much help and advice. Check out the writing at ‘FF’. Note: for adults only!
MISCELLANEOUS:
I have yLoveBlues to thank for my banner, and she was so quick and efficient. With all the graphics I play with I should have been able to come up with my own design but when I found I was stuck for ideas, she came up with the perfect something. Visit the myspace page:
In connection with publicity and promotional material that I’ve written in the past, for further information regarding the Breaking Down the Barriers project as featured here, gardening in general and arthritis care - please take a look at these websites. Oh… and I created the banner for The Really Wild Nursery.

For a gift with a difference! Louise Hugill created a special bouquet for me to mark a special occasion. She also helped me run a competition with a wonderful rose as a prize. I would love to do something like this again and I’ve the perfect book in mind. The only trouble it I have to get around to writing it first. LOL.

As a lover of all things dragon related I stumbled across The Gothic Shop. When they discovered I was a writer they were kind enough to give me a link. One thing I can tell you about them is that they provided excellent, fast and efficient service!
