Introducing a new LGBTQ Publisher~ NineStar Press

Fans of quality LGBTQA fiction have been anticipating the launch of brand-new publisher NineStar Press. Following the company’s “soft launch” in July, they’re ready to launch fully on November 23^rd, 2015.

NineStar Press was created to meet the reading needs of people across the LGBTQA spectrum. The company was formed when founder Lisa Cox, who has years of experience both as an author and editor of LGBTQA fiction, noticed a gap in the market that wasn’t being filled. Though many publishing houses are focused on straight and male/male fiction and romance, Lisa saw that few were offering high-quality, professionally edited and formatted books outside of those markets.

Though NineStar Press will offer plenty gay fiction and romance, it is also committed to publishing books featuring lesbian, bisexual, trans*, queer, and asexual characters. It will release only the best, most engaging LGBTQA stories that you’ll want to read again and again.

What Can You Expect From NineStar Press?

Already, the publisher has a battery of books waiting to be pre-ordered by LGBTQA readers. The stories run the gamut of genres, lengths, and sexualities, from short male/male erotica to fantasy with a lesbian protagonist to contemporary romantic suspense.

Defiant Loyalties by Elizabeth Wilde is one of the novels to be released. It follows the story of Jack Preston, whose life is thrown into a dangerous game of lies and espionage, when an assassination attempt is made on his oppressive father’s life. He finds solace in an unlikely place—in the man who was tasked with killing his father. The heat level is high on this erotic romance…and the tension higher. Check it out at NineStar Press now.

Fans of fantasy fiction will also find much to love about Brooke Radley’s Nightshade. It centers on a young mage named Eleanor, who has to infiltrate a thieves’ guild to find the source of a drug that’s ravaging her city. But once she’s reached the inner circle of the Nightshade Brotherhood, she’s drawn to a beautiful and elusive thief called Cassandra. Can she risk betraying Cassandra to do what needs to be done for the good of her city?

Noted erotica and erotic romance writer Elizabeth Coldwell brings two initial short erotic pieces to the line-up with the seasonal Happy Christmas, Sir, about a sub who wants to please his Dom, and Trickster, about a bounty hunter who’s drawn to his handsome target.

Fans of seasonal romances and erotic stories will find a lot to choose from, too.  Check out the site to see offerings from male romance writer Olley White, erotic romance writer Gillian St. Kevern, and lesbian novella writer Lucy Carey.

There are too many to list here, so check out www.ninestarpress.com to see what else is on offer. 

No matter what your taste or interest is, NineStar Press has all the top-quality, well-written, hard-to-put-down LGBTQA fiction you could desire.

New Publisher Alert and submission call~ Tule Publishing

 Introducing Tule Publishing

Tule Publishing has one goal – to publish fantastic stories, by the best writers, to delight the reader, while satisfying the writers desire for creativity, freedom, and commercial success. Tule is about the writer making money, having fun in the process, and working with awesome women- fellow writers- and Tule’s small e-publishing team.

Tule publishes Romance, Commercial Women’s Fiction and Chik Lit. We are looking to publish more genres later in 2014. We are always open to a good story!

Tule publishes around 2 to 6 books a month. We aim to get a new book into reader’s hands each week. While trying to mix single titles and novella releases throughout the month.

Our books range from short novellas to full length single titles. Tule started publishing books as a digital format but now we are moving in a hybrid direction, with print and digital copies available.

We recently released our newest series, The Great Wedding Giveaway, which features 8 sweet and sexy novellas. Each novella is written by a different author and centered around the Great Wedding Giveaway, which is part of our Montana Born imprint. Let the wedding madness begin!

We are very excited about our new imprints, Carolina Born and Holiday. Carolina Born features sexy southern romances set in the Carolina low country. Holiday is a mix of romance and chik lit - perfect for beach reads and a feel good escape. We also have single titles releasing this spring. Starting with The Frog Prince by Jane Porter and I Love the 80’s and Once More with Feeling by Megan Crane.

Tule plans to keep growing and expanding into different genres and continuing to deliver original, fantastic stories. We will release new series in our Montana Born imprint with a homecoming series and county fair series in the fall. For our Holiday imprint, we will have a Christmas series each set in different countries around the world. We will visit Carolina Born again in winter for heartwarming southern Christmas stories. For the end of 2014 and early 2015 we are looking to publish a new imprint, Muse, which will include dark and sexy stories such as Erotica, Fantasy, Paranormal and edgy Romance.

Marketing has been the responsibility of writers for years. If you want your book to succeed, you need to do your part in supporting it. The publishing industry is an always changing and evolving business. Authors and marketing teams must always be aware of the different opportunities and ways to market a book. Tule incorporates a variety of marketing tactics including digital and print ads, blog tours, reviews, social media action, etc. In the end, the writer must do his or her part to ensure the success of the book.

We are looking for stories that are well written and include some sizzle, definitively happy and compelling. We want a book that keeps us turning the pages and when it is over, we are disappointed that there is not more to read.

Wondering how you can submit to Tule? Send us a synopsis of your book and a first chapter. Please look over our imprints and decide which fits your story best. Then, when you are ready, send your submissions to: submissions@thetulegroup.com
