thetammyjo -> Looking for Suggestions -- Free book possible (7/10/2007 7:54:41 AM)

(this may get moved or removed because I'm not sure where to post this but I wanted the suggestions from some of you fine people on Collarme)

My publisher wants another book and he likes the idea of reprinting some of my earlier stories along with pieces that were in smaller magazines or anthologies with something new.

He wants a great title but my mind is blank. I need your help and in return if your suggestion is choosen I will not only mention you in the introduction but I'll send you a signed copy of said book when it comes out.

The book will have old favorites like "Punishment for the Crime" and it's follow-up "Justice" as well as "Captain's Gaze" that I did for a charity and a new vampire piece. Not sure how many stories it will have yet but it will be about 50,000 words in total.

You can post ideas here or email them to me on Collarme.

Herotica?

Ummmm, that's a tough call! Good luck with it [:)]

Could you give me more thoughts on this, Ocilla?

Reasoning, what it suggests to you, would it call to you if you saw it on a book shelf?

There's a multi-issue series of erotica written by women called that. So you know you had a great idea there, Ripples.

This might help, a list of my publications:

2006 Servants of Destiny. Las Vegas: Nazca Plains Corporation, 2006

2004 Eroscapes: Erotic Fiction from the Mind of TammyJo Eckhart. Chicago: Wells Street Publishing, 2004.

2004 “One Day in the Life of the Landfords.” Color of Pain, Shade of Pleasure. Ed. Cecilia Tan. New York: Blue Moon Books, 2004, pp. 124.

2003 “The Captain’s Gaze.” Dreaming in Color: a special edition anthology of erotic writing by Greenery Press authors. Oakland: Greenery Press, 2003, pp.39-51.

2002 “Still.” Prometheus. No. 40, Winter, 2002, (New York) pp. 70-71.

2002 “Appealing.” Prometheus. No. 39, Summer, 2002, (New York) pp. 65-67.

1999 Justice and other short erotic tales. San Francisco: Greenery Press, 1999.

1997 Amazons: Erotic Explorations of the Ancient Myths. New York: Masquerade Books, Inc., July 1997.

1996 Punishment for the Crime. New York: Masquerade Books, Inc., June 1996.

1995 "A Day in the Life of the Landfords." S/M Futures. Ed. Cecilia Tan. Boston: Circlet Press, Inc., 1995, pp 1-24.

The new book would NOT include anything from "Eroscapes" or "Servants of Destiny" -- only older stuff.

Hey, it's a series that sells very well I'm told.

You are certainly no idiot. Please do not think of yourself that way.




ocilla -> RE: Looking for Suggestions -- Free book possible (7/10/2007 9:49:37 AM)

I think it would require some clever graphic design to reinforce the Re portion versus the Erotica portion.  I suggested it because it is a reprinting of your work.  You could also add a subtitle.  here is another version:

Re-rotica: Tammyjo's most loved stories  or a compilation of Tammyjo's best stories or a collection of Tammyjos best....

I am keeping track, thank you, ocilla.

Those are interesting though I think some of fiction that proved to get the most response had little to nothing to do with love in those first three books.

keep them coming, I am writing them all on a list and accrediting properly

Now this one makes me blush, Trampler.

My head has been spinning all day at this idea to reprint my older stuff. it made me sit down and look over my list of published erotica -- makes me feel old.

Very nice, Lashra.

The three Ps roll nicely and it could be expanded if needed in the future...

*looks up wishfully at that thought/hope*

Oh, two ideas.

I like that the second hints at the science fiction and fantasy stuff that I tend to write. Not always but I'd say a good 75% of my stories are in those fields.

Again with the making me blush thing.

*blush*

You know, I do hope that what I write does get people to think not just get aroused, that's almost my secondary thought, so this was particular touching for me to read, earthycouple.
