A sale today of a 'single shot' (long short story) to Torquere. "Star Crossed' is MM romance, sci fi and a bit angsty. I plan to write a sequel at some point...
Congrats on that sale, Veinglory! Really a unique genre cross there.
I have nothing to report yet. Gak!

I just barely received an email from Twenty 1 Lashes accepting a "69er" I sent them--a story with only 69 words. I also submitted a longer story, around 5000, and they emailed and told me the editor considers it worthy of publication, they are trying to find a place for it.

I am continuing with Loose Id with 'the Sculptor's Muse' accepted and 'A Heart Aflame' submitted. Things are going quite well--if you are looking for an erotic romance epublisher with respectable sales I suggest giving them a go.

Wow you two must be the pros here <wink>.
My erotica is not finished as yet but keep the market research coming! I've looked into all the pubs you've mentioned. It seems erotica is indeed in demand right now.
Lucky for me!

I think erotic will always be in good demand
I have been rejected by Loose Id in the past, early on before I got a feel for the--and by quite a few others. It can be so hard to work out what each publisher 'likes'. On thing I recommend is doing some book reveiwing, you get to see currently releases from various publishers without going out of pocket.

I've been angsting on about my non-erotic mmf fantasy. Finally went with Chippewa Press who are offering a short paperback run on it. They're a small epublishing press but open to outside-the-box genres and moving more into print over the next few years.
Good for you, veinglory. Nothing wrong with that at all! Continue working on something else.

Well, I sold a novella to Kensington entitled, "Triango." They asked for 2 more. I also just sold a story to Zane for her upcoming "Caramel Flava" entitled overhaul.
Wow, Quin! Selling to Kensington is a major accomplishment! But lined up for three is a downright miracle. Way to bat the ball outa the park. I mean, way out. Nice title too, BTW.
