Upcoming books update

I know I said I would keep everyone posted on upcoming release dates, but my editor has been traveling and busy with workshops, so I don’t yet know the release date for Firebird. It will be sometime this spring, I just don’t know when. As soon as she gets to me with a solid date, I’ll be sure to post it.

That release will be e-book only, just like Comfort Object. Several people have contacted me asking if and when Comfort Object will be out in paperback, as that is their preferred way to read. Believe me, I wish I had a better answer. The only way to make that happen is to email the powers-that-be at Loose Id and beg them to do it! Loose Id does paper-publish a select few books, but it is based on sales and demand. Another option is to do what I do — download and print. You can get your copy bound at your local copy shop. 🙂

I am now well into Deep In The Woods. It’s turning into quite the hot, hot, HOT bdsm novel although as I mentioned earlier, this one will have some darker themes as well. If Loose Id passes on it, I will probably publish it at Lulu, in which case it will be available soon after Firebird. Like most of my other books, the more I get to “know” the characters through writing, the more emotional places the story ends up going. I really like what it’s developing into. Hopefully you will too.

In the meantime, the READMORE2010 code for 10% off at Lulu should still be active if you’re interesting in picking up anything there.

Thanks everyone for your support!

YIPPEE!!

My book Mercy made the Book News Top BDSM Fiction list this week! I’m so excited. There are some huge, huge, HUGE classics on that list.

You can see the entire list here (click!) OH, and to find me you have to scroll down to number 71. But I’ll take it!

It’s so great to see my book on a list like that. Every little bit of publicity helps! If you’ve enjoyed my books, I hope you’ll consider blogging about them or posting about them on Fetlife, or just telling your kinky friends!

If you’ve already done that, I totally owe you one! 😉

Just go to my book page on Lulu.com, and add the books you’d like to your cart. At checkout, enter the code READMORE2010, and it should deduct 10% from the price of your order.

I am working furiously on TWO new novels now, one contemporary bdsm that will probably be released after Firebird at Loose Id, and another historical I might self-publish.

Everyone’s wonderful comments and reviews have encouraged me so much. I appreciate it!

You can do your holiday shopping! Everyone knows that kinky, naughty books make great gifts and spark fascinating discussions at family gatherings.

I kid, I kid.

Oh MY!

I must have written a dirty book! I was just looking at my publisher’s page for Comfort Object, and it has this disclaimer at the bottom:

“Publisher’s Note: This book contains explicit sexual content, graphic language, and situations that some readers may find objectionable: Anal play/intercourse, strong BDSM theme and content (including/not limited to spanking), dubious consent, exhibitionism, ménage (m/f/m), moresome (m/f/m/f with f/f interaction), multiple partners, voyeurism…”

 

No need to thank me. LOL.

My new book is underway…

Now that Firebird is in for editing, I’ve begun my new book. I intended to take a week off, but oh well.

I’m one chapter in, but it’s still untitled for now. I’m just glad I finally settled on the names for my characters!! Thanks to the wonderful peeps in my “Lifestyle” group on FetLife for the name help. 🙂 Maybe they can give me title help down the line.

This book will be slightly darker than my last one, but there are a lot of themes I’ve felt driven to write about lately, the least of which is finding your way out of a forest when everything seems dark and scary. But my heroine will do it! With the help of the hero of course.

Low Translation is on hold for now, but that will come out too, probably following this one. So many ideas, so little time!

Comfort Object will be out soon!

Next month, people! I’m so excited, I can’t believe the release date is almost here. I just got my cover proofs from Loose Id. I love the art they chose.Comfort Object cover 
Me and my editor have toiled over the manuscript and it turned out better than I could have imagined. Can’t wait to share it with all my readers. It comes out next month! LooseId.com!

The romance of dominance and submission

My name is Annabel Joseph.

I’m a novelist, and I love to write about the romance of dominance and submission. The characters in my books all have one thing in common, they are “into” BDSM and they have lives that are richer, fuller, and more complex because of it.

If you are interested in sensual power exchange and the world of BDSM with a romantic twist, I’d love for you to read my books. You can find information on currently available novels and upcoming works here on my page.

I’m thrilled that my next book, Comfort Object, has been picked up for publication by Loose Id! Please stay tuned for more details, the release is slated for fall of 2009.  For more information about Comfort Object, please feel free to scan the book descriptions to the right.

I love to hear from my fans. Please leave a message before you go, about what you liked about my books, or what you would like to see more of in the future. Your comment can be posted anonymously to protect your privacy.
