RRBC’S BACK-TO-SCHOOL BOOK & BLOG BLOCK PARTY
Published by lizgavin
USAToday bestselling author Liz Gavin’s books have made to #1 in countries as diverse as Japan, the UK, the US, Canada, Australia and her home country Brazil, collecting 5 and 4-star reviews. Nominated for a Summer Indie Book Award in 2016, and again in 2017, this RWA member constantly seeks new opportunities to improve her craft. This thirst for knowledge propelled Liz to leave the comforts of family and friends in Brazil and move to California to pursue a Master’s degree in late 2015. She lives in sunny SoCal, where she’s researching the writing process, for her thesis, in hopes to figure out why she creates in English instead of her native Portuguese. Liz Gavin writes in contemporary, paranormal, and historical genres. In her sexy stories, one finds smart, independent women, who don’t need rescuing by knights in shining armor, but indulge in steamy action with swoony Alpha males with big hearts. She also writes about women discovering their sexuality and finding happiness in unconventional setups.

Hi – i hope everyone can still see this. If not i will ask Liz to reblog.
Having just finished a time consuming bit of work doing CreateSpace book versions (One Million Project going on by Mid Oct) i can now dedicate myself to other tasks such as finding our final artists for the OMP.
If you or anyone you know wants to be involved, the following stories need promo artists. I am trying to get 4 pieces per story, one of which will be done in the style of a cover (complete with title) and reflecting characters and scenes in the story.
Art will mainly be used for accompanying promos and future print versions and as an artist you will be an official OMP Contributor and part of our network, credited for your work (which remains your intellectual property and can be used elsewhere at your discretion) and can call on us to help promote your general projects. You’ll also have a contributors profile on the official website.
Deadlines – i know it may not seem like you have much time as we plan to launch in November, but the rollout/promo period will last 12 months, so there is plenty of scope. Although of course the quicker work is made available, the more time you’ll have in the promotional spotlight.
Unassigned stories:
3: Pray to the Void by NYTimes bestseller list author TONY O’NEILL. Hyper real tale about the misadventures of drug addicts just out of rehab.
4. The Diary of an Inconsequential Man – humorous journal story by me. Illustrative artist required.
5. The Little Christmas Tree by Paul Skelton. Animated look/Pixar style required – 3 pieces. Cover piece is assigned.
6. The Catman in the Case of the Unnoficial Tontine by me. Victorian detective/pulp mysteryman. Pulp illustrative or steam punk style required.
8. Those Who Would Resist My Rule by me. Space opera/sci-fi. Painted/illustrated 50’s sci-fi pulp style required. Think Dan Dare or Flash Gordon.
10. The Golden Legion by me. Fantasy artist required. Illustrative/painted.
14. Jack Knife by Cosmo Clinton – story about 2 young guys adventures on their way to a festival. Art open to interpretation.
17. Children’s Story by me – a misnomer as its a victorian detective story with grimm’s fairytale elements and anthoromorphic animals – illustrative artist needed who can do Victorian/animals.
Please leave your details with Liz if you or an artist you know are interested. I will look at samples. Please list your top three so if a story is filled, you might still have a chance to do the next on your list.
Thank you,
Jason

As for the One Million Project, the 24 short-stories vary greatly in length, style and genre. There’s a bit of everything: fantasy, paranormal, children’s stories, time travel, biographical stories, western, adventure, super-heroes, and my little erotica tale thrown in the middle. haha So, it’s fair to say the One Million Project is NOT based on erotica at all. 😀

Your project sound very interesting. What has erotica to do with this? Is the project going to be based on it? I have read one of your books and know that it wasn’t that too explicit. 🙂 So keep us informed about the progress of your project.

Your project sounds like quite an undertaking, but the charity aspect is awesome! I began reading erotica stories a few months ago and have to say, they can be quite enthralling–when the events are set to a great story–which I’m sure yours is. Good luck on your project and enjoy your blog celebration today!
