Sweetly confessing two new story sales! (Andrea Dale, Erotica, Sales, Sophie Mouette)

I’m thrilled to announce two new sales—well, a sale and a half, really—to the über-legendary Violet Blue!

“New Day, New Life” (as Andrea Dale) and “Sacred Places” (as Sophie Mouette, written with Teresa Noelle Roberts) will both appear in Sweet Confessions: Erotic Fantasies for Couples in July 2011!

Interestingly, both stories involve travel, couples out of their natural environment and being more adventurous than they would be at home.

“New Day, New Life,” opens on the Charles Bridge in Prague, with the protagonists watching a mostly naked go-go dancer in the window of a nightclub. That part of the story is taken from real life…!

“Sacred Places” takes place in Britain, mostly in a ruined monastery. I don’t remember if Teresa and discussed exactly where, but in my mind it’s a combination of Tintern Abbey and Llanthony Priory, both sites we’ve been to together. (At this rate, I should be able to write my entire time in Britain off on taxes, given how many stories I’ve set there!)

Sweet Confessions: Erotic Fantasies for Couples is available for preorder. Enjoy!

And yet another sexy story by the prolific Andrea Dale!

“A Sensitive Sole”

I pulled out the feathers and went to work on her vulnerable soles. Her entire body went rigid, but she didn’t try to escape, didn’t try to squirm away, oh no. She was in heaven. I turned the vibrator on high and watched the fireworks begin….

Burbank Book Festival (come see me!) (Appearances, Sarah Dale)

I’ll be on a panel discussion and also signing A Little Night Music this coming Saturday at the Burbank Book Festival. If you’re in the area, stop by and say hi!

Burbank Book Festival

May, 7, 2011
1:00 PM
Buena Vista Branch Library
300 N. Buena Vista St.
For more information call: 818.238.5620

The City of Burbank will be celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. To coincide with Burbank’s centennial celebration, the Burbank Public Library will host a mini-book festival at our Buena Vista Branch Library from 1-4 PM on Saturday, May 7th. The goal of the festival is twofold: to spotlight Burbank’s authors who have either self-published their book(s) or published through traditional avenues, giving them the venue to sell their books; and to encourage aspiring authors by offering information on writers’ organizations and self-publishing opportunities.
