ARe Closing and Alternate Marketplaces

Hi everyone!

Sadly, it was announced today, via email, that ARe will be closing its doors on the 31st of this month. Thus, I thought it might be helpful to offer links to the alternate marketplaces where my work is currently available.

As some of my work is considered taboo, particular books may not be found at all marketplaces. Please check my website for an up-to-date list of retailers.

As always, you have my most sincere thanks for your support. I couldn’t do what I do without each of you!

Peace and happy holidays,
JLT

P.S. As an aside: My work is not currently, nor will it ever be, enrolled in Amazon KU. I believe all of us – readers, authors, publishers, etc – benefit greatly from fair and meaningful competition. The allowance of publishing control over content, pricing, royalties, etc. to one entity is, in my humble opinion, incredibly dangerous to each and every one of us.

Louis Stevens and I are so proud to have taken part in the 2016 Rainbow Awards. This year’s event saw over 400 books submitted, with 165 participating judges, and raised more than $14,000 for LGBT charities. We are humbled beyond words that Quillon’s Covert not only reached the final round, but also garnered a prestigious Runner-up award in the Erotic Romance category. We’d like to offer our sincere thanks to everyone who participated, and to Elisa Reviews for holding the yearly event. Lastly, our most heartfelt congratulations to all the authors who received awards.

Kimmers’ Erotic Book Banter Reblog – Day One – Blog-iversary 12 HoliDays of Romance Giveaways

Reblog from Kimmer’s Erotic Book Banter


 

screen-shot-2016-12-08-at-6-47-15-am

Today marks the start of our 12 HoliDays of Romance Giveaways
in celebration of Kimmers’ Erotic Book Banters 1 year anniversary!

We are delighted to have so many wonderful authors joining us for this momentous occasion and we thank them for their unwavering support over the past year.

We here at the Banter realize that we would not be marking this milestone if it were not for the hard work of all the wonderful writers we have had the pleasure to work with or the valued readership from our clientele.

So, with that in mind we have partnered with several scribers whose books we have been honored to read over the last 365 days to offer our followers some “swag”.
