 Here is a list of linx to a long list of people who either share my love of writing M/M erotica, have been instrumental in getting me to where I am today and/or inspired me to do what I do.

Writer Support

These businesses provide services that include website design & maintenance, trailer composition, blog set-up, production companies etc. This is a list of professionals who have earned my trust. I have no personal or financial interest in any of them but do give them the thumbs up for their business ethics and integrity.You will need to contact each business for a list of what they specialize in. 

http://www.rottnroll.com

We've been busy creating book trailers for authors.One of the other things we can offer are graphics for author banners, bookmarks, and book covers. We've done website graphics, including the header for Pink Petal Books' new website. We are also well versed in custom My Space layouts, phpbb Message Boards, websites and Wordpress blogs. We're happy to provide samples of our work upon request, but below are a cover and some banners to get your juices flowing.

For promotional support- you can hire these companies  to spread the word about your books. 

http://phoenixrisingpromotions.com/

Phoenix Rising Promotions is a complete promo opportunity without lifting a finger.  All those hours of promoting that are taking away your writing time, allow Phoenix Rising Promotions to do it for you.  Dedicated, fun, and full of ideas we can help you, help yourself.

 

 

For editorial support- not all publishers are created equal and there are times when freelance editors can put sanity back into the insane. This is a list of editors I can personally vouch for as being respected in the writing community and making a manuscript shine.  I have used or are presently using their services and am pleased with both their professionalism and rates. 

http://www.alternative-read.com/arediting.htm

 They can contact me either at bocperkins@gmail.com (bocperkins at gmail dot com) or ar.editing@gmail.com (ar dot editing at gmail dot com)

 

Blogs

Sometimes we writers have to grin and bear the slings and arrows of the uneducated or misinformed. Blogs are one of the few outlets we, as writers, have to express personal opinions without being marched into the principals office to explain ourselves and offer up apologies we really don't mean. Some give glimpses into our politically correct lives others give us a chance to voice our dissatisfaction with the unfairness of life. A few are springboards for debate and  then there are those who share my WTF attitude and just throw thoughts out there to share.  Everything from the profound to the mundane can be found within the blogs of my writer friends. We are a diverse bunch so be warned....
