I can barely believe that it has been one month since our good friend, Marcy, passed away. The first two weeks were a bit surreal. My JERR co-owner, Amber, worked hard to get the Tribute issue rolling. It finally came out last Sunday (June 6). We are now going back to normal and will be doing a reviews-only issue, to be published this Sunday, June 13. After that, I'll post the usual listing

Today I received the very sad news that one of our reviewers, Marcy Arbitman, passed away on the evening of May 6, 2010. I am in tears, though I never had the chance to meet her in person. Marcy was one of our most enthusiastic and dedicated reviewers. She truly loved to read, and she had a passion for erotic romance that never waned.Marcy was diagnosed several months ago with thyroid cancer.

Vicrum was still sleeping and she pressed a kiss to his shoulder before slipping from the bed. She pulled on a short white nighty but didn’t bother with panties, since Beltane was a celebration of passion. Wednesday began collecting her supplies for

Today is the first day of May, and it is celebrated by more people than you would know. It is a rather fascinating tradition, and our copy editor, Heather, kindly offered to write a couple of pieces about Beltane (including a very spicy short story) to include in our blog.

I am a gaming freak. I usually tend to go for MMOs. (Wiki should be taken with a grain of salt, but for gaming, it is pretty good, have to say, so I'll be using it for my info linking). My latest MMO adventures have been in Lord of the Rings Online, which I started playing during closed beta. This was over two years ago. I am a bit "burned out" at the moment with MMO gaming though, so I had

Yeah, it seems silly, right? Well, this happens more often than people realize. I remember that during my early days as a reviewer, the owner of a reviews website was caught copying reviews from someone else. At the time, blogs were not the in thing like they are now. It turned into a pretty nasty incident, and as a "noob" to the reviewing scene, I couldn't completely understand what was

The reviews published on our April 4, 2010 issue of the newsletter are now up in the website. The covers will be uploaded before the month is over.

I have been reading ebooks for 7 years now. I started in February 2003 to be precise. I was stuck at home, sick as a dog, with nothing to do. At that time I didn't read romance at all. I went online to research for erotica, and accidentally, I ended up finding Jaid Black’s “The Empress New Clothes” in Amazon. It said available on CD which intrigued me. I didn’t order it though, but I continued

I belong to a gaming community and blogs were recently introduced as an option in their forums. Someone took it upon herself to write about ebooks, and she is making it all sound like everything is "wonderful". As most of you know, epublishing these days is not exactly "wonderful", particularly as it pertains to those of us who have been reading in ebook formats for a long time. Anyway, I

A couple of years ago, when I first tried the blog thing, Amber wrote this article to include in our newly launched blog. Sadly, the site I chose changed ownership, didn't bother to tell me about it, and they proceeded to delete my blog. Thanks to Google, I was able to save the articles recently. Thump! Thump!

Some of you probably already read about this in blogland. Jane Litte, contributor to the popular blog Dear Author, has been reporting on the issue of pricing control by the publishers for months. Other popular blogs have been reporting on this as well, though maybe not as in much detail or as it pertains to the romance audience as Ms. Litte has. As a bit of a background: Since before the

I have been reading erotic romance for more than seven years. I actually discovered the romance genre as a whole thanks to erotic romance. Granted I always had romantic tendencies i.e. I used to write romantic stories for my little sister to read when I was in my teens, and I loved "Pride and Prejudice" and "Jane Eyre", as well as "Rebecca" as much for the story as for the romantic elements... I

As I was doing my rounds on Facebook, I found this little gem while reading the wall of one of my favorite authors. One word comes to mind: PRICELESS. Enjoy!

I am aiming at posting a list of our published reviews every month, once they are uploaded to our website. Following is the list of reviews published in our March 7, 2010 issue, and yes, they are uploaded to the website: A Date With Mr. Wonderful: Lavender Lace 2 by Lynn LaFleur Afterthought by Cat Kane Bait: Angler 1 by Annie Nicholas Binding Saber by Jade James Blood on the Moon by Kelly

As I was browsing my copy of Romantic Times magazine (yes, I admit it, I am a subscriber), I started thinking about my habits in reading reviews. I don't review as much as I used to and I tend to go for tested and true favorite authors on the few occasions I do. At the same time, I find myself researching much more in depth before purchasing a book from a new author, this means that I do look for

This is something I can't help but feel compelled to comment about. Though most ordinary review sites and bloggers try to distance themselves from the "snarkier" ones fact remains that on many occasions, we all wish we could sayez it as we seez it. I don't have a problem admitting this, and especially not after looking at the circus acts we witness every week if we dare take a closer look at

Even now that I am stuck at home, job hunting, I just can't find the energy to blog frequently (by frequently I mean every day or every other day ... heck, even once a week!). It is amazing... and I don't mean this in a bad way. Some bloggers do seem to love to "hear" themselves talk, you know what I mean, however, there are others that obviously just have a passion for blogging on their

I am not talking about big publishers that have their heads well lodged up their you know what ... I am talking here about actual readers. What prompted this post was a Facebook group that I discovered, while I was checking if there was a Facebook group related to the official read an ebook day. The group in question is posted ... get a hold of this ... in the Internet & Technology - Software

I got hooked on Facebook a bit over a year ago. Yesterday, as I was doing one of my rounds, some malware sneaked into my system via one of their games (Cafe World). This is the second time I get malware and I now can say with certainty that it was that game... and no, I am not stupid. I keep my firewall, antivirus and anti-spyware/malware utilities up to date and running in the background when

This is what happens when you start a blog and (1) don't pay attention, (2) don't read the small print, (3) check your junk mail folder for notices, (4) keep some level of activity in your blog, and (5) keep backups of the articles you had posted, just in case, you know, your original blog gets deleted.
