I’m writing to invite you(authors) to participate in the blog tour I’m organizing for Dylan Asher, author of award-winning Strike a Poser.

The perfect book for a spring break getaway, Strike a Poser pokes good-hearted fun at all that makes Florida a one of a kind place: theme parks, fun in the sun, crazy tourists and a friendly con artist, or two!

The Neoverse Short Story Writing Competition received several thousand original entries!

We are humbled and excited about getting the Competition off to such a strong start. Such a broad and diverse set of entries gives us an opportunity to acknowledge truly fantastic short stories and their creators—building the foundation for an impactful, long-term award system.

By the time you read this, Novelspot will have already started celebrating the grand opening of its official domain, novelspot.net. It's been a long, long time in coming, but I'm happy, even thrilled, to say that the site looks terrific. More than that, it's functional (emphasis on fun).

Until now, Novelspot has mostly been involved in the review of romance and erotica books, but that ends with our grand opening, because I'm in charge of the speculative fiction section of the site, which means you're in good hands (or tentacles, when I'm not in my human form).
