More charity sales!

By 2 commentsAndrea Dale, Erotica, Sales, Sophie Mouette

I’m delighted to report more “sales” to a new charity anthology! This one is Coming Together: Al Fresco, and proceeds will benefit Conservation International. (Again, I say “sale” only in that the works will be published; I don’t get paid.)

But what a table of contents! Along with my story (“Outside in the Rain,” as Andrea Dale), I have a Sophie story written with Teresa (“Slow Burn”) and we’re in the company of a slew of other excellent writers.

You can pre-order the book here if you so desire! (Publication date is Earth Day 2009.) Remember, it’s for a good cause!

Sale! Lesbian Cowboys anthology

By Andrea Dale, Erotica, Sales

Sale! My story “Queen’s Up” has been accepted for the Lesbian Cowboys anthology. What a yummy cover, too. I’ll post again when it’s available for sale.

I had a lot of fun with this story. Set in an undefined time in the Old West, it’s got a poker-playing cross-dresser, her sozzled daddy, their threatened ranch, and an almost-mustache twirling villain. And a sexy saloon girl. What would be the point without a sexy saloon girl?

I’m delighted to announce that my story “Always a Bridesmaid” has been accepted into the charity anthology Coming Together: Against the Odds, a collection of erotic fiction with mystery themes.

Of course, “sale” is something of a misnomer, because all proceeds go to support the charity Autism Speaks. That’s a good thing, though!

But it’s another publication, and a story I’m quite fond of. Come to think of it, the story really has been a “bridesmaid” for a long time—it’s one of those that gets accepted and then the anthology folds, or doesn’t quiiiiite make the cut, or whatever, even though everyone says nice things about it.

I see Teresa has a story in this one, too, so you’ll get both halves of Sophie.

So, for lots of reason, yay!

Sale! For a good cause!

It’s a reprint sale*, but still one to be delighted about! “Just Be” will appear in the Phaze Books charity anthology Coming Together: At Last. All proceeds of the Coming Together anthologies go to a charity or relief fund, including breast cancer research, the 2007 Southern California wildfires, HIV/AIDS, and more. Coming Together: At Last is a collection of interracial erotic fiction and will benefit Amnesty International. I’m proud to be a part of it!

The anthology will be out in 2009; I’ll post ordering information when I have it.

* “Sale” is something of a misnomer, as I will only receive some comp copies. Normally I don’t write for no pay, but this was for a really good cause!

Sale to Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica Vol. 8!

By Erotica, Sales, Sophie Mouette

And another sale! The Sophie story “Behind the Masque” will be in The Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica Vol. 8! It first appeared in the Wicked Words anthology Sex With Strangers.

Oh, it was such a fun story to write. How can you go wrong with jewel thieves?

The Lucchese Star. Sixty carats of sapphire, as big as your fist. Makes your mouth water just looking at it. Makes you think of Caribbean seas, the summer you were ten, the eyes of the lover that got away.

Inside my turquoise doeskin gloves, my palms itched. They didn’t sweat, not a drop; I wasn’t nervous. It was all about the anticipation, baby. The lead-up. The foreplay.

Sale to Frenzy!

By Andrea Dale, Erotica, Sales

The ever-wonderful editor Alison Tyler called me a “clever author” in her e-mail to let me know my story “The Heist” will appear in her anthology Frenzy (formerly titled Flash Fucking), from Cleis Press this autumn.

“The Heist” is a personal favorite of mine so I’m especially chuffed. It was inspired in part by Kate Bush and the lyric “With a kiss/I’d pass the key/And feel your tongue/Teasing and receiving.”

Sale!

Kama Sutra coverSale! Just got confirmation that my story “Tigress” will appear in The Mammoth Book of the Kama Sutra, edited by the inestimable Maxim Jakubowski. It’ll be out in September!

This one was a strangely fun story to write. Authors had to pick a position from the Kama Sutra and write a sexy “origin story” that explained why the position came to be known by that name.

From the book’s description, it sounds like the volume is going to be utterly gorgeous!
