May 2007 Newsletter

Hello Everyone,





First, I would like to wish all the moms out there a happy Mother's day :)



This month my husband celebrates his birthday. My oldest son graduates from High School at the end of the month. It's weird, you know, getting ready for your first child to graduate. Next year my youngest son graduates. My daughter, the baby of the family, doesn't graduate for five more years.



"Erotic Tales 2" releases this month. I am shooting for a May 20th release for the print edition and possibly a May 12th release for the e-book. Here is a bit about the book.

I have had several readers ask me if I was attending the Romantic Times book lovers convention this year. Due to personal reasons I will be unable to attend this year. I am disappoint. I was really looking forward to going this year. I wasn't expecting my life to get all frazzled, I guess it is the best word to describe it.

I will try like hell to make it to the next year's conference. The way things are going I probably won't make it do Dragon con this year either.

Right now I have to focus on getting my personal life straightened up. So much has happened over these last few months and so much is going to happen over the next few months. I have every confidence in myself that I will work through this and be stronger for it when everything is all said and done.

Of course I will continue writing. I love to write, it's my solace. I will be starting the new Barbarians of Malka book right after I finish up "Erotic Tales 2".
Speaking of "Erotic Tales 2" if you have a story or poem in this book and haven't sent me the contract or your bio please send those to me by the end of the month. I will be sending out story and poem proofs later on this week.

I am finished with reading submissions for "Erotic Tales 2" I have sent out my response to all stories and poems submitted. Oh man this was a hard one to pick stories for. There were over 150 submissions. So many good stories and poems, narrowing it down to 30 was extremely difficult. I try to give any kind of feedback I can to the stories that were rejected, but to be honest there wasn't really that many that needed feedback. Most were well written and the storylines were good, they just didn't fit with what I had envisioned for the anthology.

I have picked a nice variety of stories and poems that cover the gamut of erotica. Now I have to starting editing and formatting the book. I am going to start that next week. Easter weekend is almost here and I have a million little things to do to get ready for it.

Happy Easter to everyone who celebrates the holiday :)

“With These Chains” is now available


“With These Chains” -

With these chains…a love so deep, so pure is forged that not even the cruelness of the most evil trainer could break it.

I couldn’t believe what had happened to me, couldn’t believe that sex slaves were real until I became one. I was forced into this life, forced to service the wants and needs of others. I was robbed of my humanity until I believed I was only a mere possession. I was beaten, humiliated, and forced to fulfill every atrocious, perverted, twisted need of those who put me into this life. I had all but given up, should I choose death or do I continue to be a possession… then Emma gave me back my humanity.
My name is Gaven Reese and this is my story…

Ebook is now available at www.justusrouxebooks.com , Mobipocket and soon everywhere else that carries my books.



This cover was done by a budding artist. For this ebook I wanted to try something new and let a brand new artist create the cover. I think for a first effort it's pretty good. My regular cover artist Manoj,who has done all the covers to my books, will be working on the cover for the new anthology "Erotic Tales 2"
