Sex Outlawed - The Priestess has been submitted
Well I did it!!!
I sent in a partial of Sex Outlawed-The Priestess to Ellora's Cave for consideration.
The first 7,700 words and a 7 page synopsis. I'm hoping the 7's will bring me good luck.
I've targeted the tarot card - The Priestess for Ellora's Cave's 2007 Tarot series...I haven't heard word if the tarot series is open to writers outside of EC but when it comes down the pipeline I'll post it here at my blog.
I decided to try out early cause I've heard that The Priestess is one of the more popular cards and may be taken early...so I've put my cards on the table early so to speak. Wish me luck!!!

Aeon Flux -for writers who love futuristics!
If anything this delicious movie gave me lots of ideas for my futuristic stories...
Despite some of the bad reviews this movie is getting I found it very interesting of what could happen when a virus kills virtually the entire human race...hmm kind of reminded me of Outlaw Lovers.
I don't want to throw any spoilers in here so I won't. But there is a little bit of action and the movie is slow sometimes but I found myself really using my writer's imagination and it became a pretty good movie...
So I highly recommend it for futuristic writers who are looking for possible storyline ideas!

Swingers/ Alternate Lifestyle theme for the week!
Writers and Readers what do you think about the Swingers/Alternate Lifestyle
that you read about in your erotic romance books?Should Swinging be restricted
to our books? Or if done safely do you think it is okay for others (or yourself) to swing!!!
Swinging meaning group sex and all that fun stuff.
The Supreme Court of Canada ruled Wednesday that Swinging is legal in Canada,
dismissing arguments that the sometimes raucous activities of so-called
"swingers" clubs were dangerous.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20051221/wl_canada_nm/canada_sex_col
Here's a snippet!
"In a ruling that radically changes the way Canadian courts determine what
poses a threat to the population, the court threw out the conviction of a Montreal
man who ran a club where members could have group sex in a private room
behind locked doors.
"Consensual conduct behind code-locked doors can hardly be supposed to jeopardize
a society as vigorous and tolerant as Canadian society," said the opinion of the
seven-to-two majority, written by Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin."
What are your thoughts on Swinging!!!
Do you like it in your books? Reality?
In my stories "Kidnap Fantasies: Jade" and in "Christmas Lovers"
I have a little bit of swinging going on too.
It's fun to write but is it fun in reality?
Feel free to post your views, comments and experiences here.
Hugs,
jan

Current work in progress - Sex Outlawed!
The above fellow is inspiration for my current work in progress.
Currently I'm doing tarot card research to make a submission to Ellora's Cave's upcoming Tarot card series...I'm going to target The Priestess card. Time will tell what I come up with.
My devious plan is to convert "Sex Outlawed" - some may remember that story got accepted by Ghede Books but unfortunately EC pulled the plug on that line - and so SO has been orphaned since then...The plan is to turn it into a futuristic vampire menage erotic romance.
So far it is looking hot!!!

My Writer's Retreat has arrived!!!
My dream home/writer's retreat / future retirement home has arrived!!! And boy is it big!!
They settled it onto the basement foundation just this past Friday.
Here's an idea of how it looks. It's a two bedroom. One bedroom and the living room window faces south so I get lots of sun. The living room window also gives me an awesome view of my little side meadow and the sky. Lots of lightning bug and lightning watching this summer.
Everyone says I should have made the house face the main road but for me that wouldn't be inspirational...why would I want to face a boring road? LOL.
I've got a patio door facing north and that should be nice in the hot summers when I can go out onto the shade of the deck to write and watch the cars go by.
The fellows tell me the house should be ready to move in within a month
Once I'm settled I should hopefully get into a nice writing routine!!!
I took a tour inside and it looks so darned cozy. It is soooooooo cute! I'm off to dream again.
Later,

Sinderella accepted by Ellora's Cave!
Sinderella has been accepted by Ellora's Cave! Yeahhhh!!!
I used Kate and Jack from LOST for my characters!!!
Here's a sneak peek at my contemporary erotic romance:
Sinderella
By Jan Springer
By day she's a dedicated gynecologist.
By night Dr. Ella Cinder escapes reality by secretly performing in her own erotic adult version of Sinderella.
When sexy colleague Dr. Roarke Stephenson shows up in the Sinderella audience on the same night her Prince Charming stands her up, Ella seizes the opportunity to make Roarke into her Prince Charming for one carnal night of hot blazing sex…in front of an audience.
But at the strike of midnight Ella knows she must face the harsh reality that Roarke must never learn her secret life and they can never be together again. Until then she plans on making sure he’ll never forget their night of carnal play.
Dr. Roarke Stephenson is immediately captured by the lusciously curvy actress who hides behind a mask and is known only as Sinderella. For some insane reason she reminds him of his klutzy co-worker, Ella. But that’s not possible, Ella would never have the nerve to do the wickedly delicious things Sinderella does to him…or would she?
Date of release TBA
Release date for Outlaw Lovers 3
I've received word that OUTLAW LOVERS 3 - COLTER'S REVENGE will have a release date of May 17, 2006!!!
http://www.ellorascave.com
Here's a sneak peek at Colter's Revenge:
Outlaw Lovers – Colter’s Revenge by Jan Springer
Book 3 of the Outlaw Lovers series
In the near future a virus has been unleashed killing a majority of the world's female population, forcing the introduction of the Claiming Law. A law that states men have all the rights and women are sexual property claimable by groups of men.
Revenge belongs to Dr. Colter Outlaw when he runs into the beautiful woman who broke his heart during the Terrorist Wars.
Capturing her, collaring her and holding her against her will, he seduces her, fills her with wicked desires and unleashes cravings for a delicious ménage. Fully intent on breaking her heart and walking away his plans unravel when he submits to the carnal pleasures Ashley gives so freely…
He’d told her he loved her. Whispered promises of rescue from her life as a slave, then he’d disappeared. Infected with a version of the X-virus that leaves her horny on a daily basis Ashley Blakely has come to Pleasure Palace to bid on the cure. She never expected her Outlaw Lover to screw her plans. Nor did she expect to give him her heart and body so easily…
In the meantime the first two Outlaw Lovers ebooks have been combined into a print book to form Outlaw Lovers Jude and Luke!
Look for your copy at your local Borders, Waldenbooks, Barnes and Noble and soon at a Chapters and Indigo bookstore near you!
The next Outlaw story I have in the works is TYLER'S WOMAN...Tyler is finally released from the terrorist prisons only to return home to discover his woman has been claimed by 4 men!!!
Will he let Laurie go without a fight? Or will he go after the men who've claimed his woman?
Stay tuned to this blog for updates!!!
