Romance & Fantasy Newsletter

Since so many people don't have time to read through all the chit chat and small talk of a newsgroup, I've set up a newsletter that you are all welcome to subscibe to. This will be a once a month mailing with updates on my new releases, what's coming, reviews, etc. There will be no other mailing other than this one from the group. All chat is confined to the newsgroup, which you are always welcome to join, of course.

If this newsletter is a better alternative to the group, please do join! The info is below. Thanks so much, always, for your interest and support!! The first issue of the newsletter will be sent either mid-November, or the first of December.

*** SPECIAL PROJECT ***

Okay, on behalf of my good friend Laurie Damron, a very special lady herself, this announcement:

It’s fall! That can only mean that Christmas is right around the corner. I am once again doing a Holiday for the Troops project. Thank you so very much, Denyse, for giving me temporary residence here to chat up this very worthwhile cause.

How it works - you send either items to be sent to the troops or checks, money orders or gift cards to be used to shop for the troops, I then shop and put together shipments and send them out to servicemen and women in Iraq and Afghanistan.

This link - http://lorifoster.com/author/militarytribute.htm - will take you to the Military Tribute page on Lori Foster's website where you will find a complete list of suggested items in the event you would like to do your own shopping for the troops. In return for your donation, your name will be entered in a raffle for some wonderful prizes. Pretty amazing, huh? The drawing will be held on October 31st and I plan to mail the boxes during the second week of November to ensure delivery before the holidays. It is exciting every time we send shipments for the troops but the holiday boxes are especially fun to put together. If you are unable to send a donation of any kind, but would like to send cards, letters or drawings by your children for inclusion in the boxes, they would be greatly appreciated! I am hopeful that if you have a blog you might mention this project and provide my information. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING POLITICAL ABOUT THIS PROJECT. It is simply a show of support for the men and women who serve our country. Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks bunches and big hugs to you, Denyse.

Promo: OUT OF HELL

The Devane Files Book One: OUT OF HELL
by Denysé Bridger
Available from: http://www.liquidsilverbooks.com/books/outofhell.htm
ISBN: 1-59578-268-0
Genre: Victorian Mystery Erotica Novel
Price: $5.50

In 1892, London is only now beginning to forget the horrors of the "Ripper" murders. Inspector Michael Devane, who worked on that notorious case, has been assigned to the murky Whitechapel district now that Chief Inspector Fred Abberline is retired. Devane is a haunted man, his mind frequently lost to the fog of an opium addiction. But Devane is also a man of brilliant vision and intuition, something Abberline recognized years earlier.

When theatre producer Robert Bradshaw is violently murdered in his townhouse bedroom, Devane is drawn into a shadowy world of obsession, abuse, and hatred, all barely hidden beneath the thin veneer of proper society. In Bethany Anne Bradshaw, the lovely widow, Michael also discovers that he is not so immune to passion as he once believed, and his judgment may be faulty for less-than-honorable reasons when he begins an affair with her, ignoring the fact that she has strong motives for killing Bradshaw...

The complete first chapter is available in the FILES section of my newsgroup, as well as an excerpt for The Devane Files Book Two: AN UNSPOKEN BETRAYAL, which is coming soon…

Interview with FALLEN ANGEL REVIEWS

Okay, my first interview with a review site has just been posted, if anyone's interested. I don't know how bright I sound, but it was fun!!

http://www.fallenangelreviews.com/Interviews/2006/Sep06-Tammy-DenyseBridger.htm

Thanks!!

Anyone want to write a story for this??

All right, here's the idea a friend of mine suggested to me that everyone is welcome to participate in. A collection of short, sexy reads that feature your fantasy lovers/heroes. I want to put this together with a few writers, or readers who want to write, who would like to test the waters of erotic romance. If you're interested, let me know, okay? The book is called STUDS 'R US, and is meant to be fun. I'm going to find a proofreader, and a local friend is doing a cover for the fun.

It's simple: Pick a really hot, sexy hero, and write a short story about him. I'm thinking the sub-theme here could be tradesmen, (i.e. carpenters, plumbers, landscapers, etc.), and let's see how steamy your story can be.

If this works out, and 6-10 fun stories can be pulled together for the collection, I can then offer it via my website as one ofthe "freebies" for everyone to enjoy. Sound like something you might want to write a "quickie" for??? Let me know, okay?

Word count in the 5000 word range, and a deadline ofNovember 18th, and we'll see if things can be ready for Christmas!That gives you a shot at Holiday themes, too!! Have fun and email me if you want to participate, okay?

Interview at "The Vampire's Crypt"

Recently, my good friend and fellow author Margaret Carter decided to add a new feature to her monthly newsletter, an interview. So, to my great pleasure, she asked me to be her first "guest" and answer a few questions. It was fun, and I hope you'll drop over to Margaret's group and check out her October newsletter. She writes wonderful vampire tales and fantasy, so if you haven't read any of Margaret's books, take the time to locate them and enjoy them, they're great!!!
