Great list, Lindsay. But may I correct the Champagne Books bit, please (they're my publisher!). They have three lines: Champagne is for any kind of mainstream or historical novel which is NOT erotic (mine is fairly sweet), their Carnal Passions line is for erotic novels, and their new Burst imprint is for sci-fi and fantasy. They also bring out most books in print version a few months after e-book.
Thanks, Rosemary! Duly amended. Lindsay
Lindsay - maybe add Decadent Publishing into this list - Heather was recently on the loop!!
Fab list, Lindsay! A few interesting ones there. Thanks for sharing. :-)
Barbara - you're right! Now added Decadent Publishing and sorry to miss them the first time. They look very dynamic.
Thanks, Cathie.
Really useful list, Lindsay. Thanks, Jenny
Wow, what a great list! Thanks for sharing, Lindsay.
