Good morning all! I’m just back from the RWA conference in Washington, where I got the opportunity to meet several of my favorite Aphrodisia authors including Kate Douglas, Susan Lyons, Crystal Jordan, Lydia Parks and Shelli Stevens-there were more, but my brain is still overloaded with names and faces, so forgive me if I met you and didn’t name-check you 
It’s always a pleasure to get away from the kids and meet up with other writers who kind of understand my crazy writerly ways much better than my family. It’s also a chance to celebrate-while I was at RWA, I found out that I won first place in the RWA Passionate Plume contest for published historical erotic romance with ‘Simply Sinful’-yay!!
When I got back I found the cover for an upcoming anthology for Aphrodisia in my mail box:
Isn’t it lovely? And I’m thrilled to be the first to show the cover off and also thrilled to have such great Aphrodisia authors in the anthology with me. It’s my first contemporary erotic romance for Kensington, and my novella has the same title as the anthology SOME LIKE IT ROUGH so I hope you all like it. It’s due out in March 2010. I’ll have a full-length contemporary out with Aphrodisia late 2010, if not 2011 because I still have 2 more historicals to publish before I get to that one
And I’m not sure if I showed you all the cover for my upcoming ‘Simply’ book yet? It’s due out in late September/early October and is the fourth in the series. It’s all about Anthony Sokorvsky and it;s called SIMPLY WICKED. Please go and check out my website where there is a excerpt and blurb.
Take care everyone and I’ll be back next month with an excerpt from SIMPLY WICKED!

Congratulations on winning the RWA Passionate Plume Award, and the new cover to SOME LIKE IT ROUGH is hot. It looks like the heroine is the aggressor in this case.

by Karen Erickson · July 24th, 2009 at 2:48 pmHey Armenia! I have no idea if the other 2 authors wrote ass-kicking heroines-they probably did
My contribution is a threeway man heavy menage-I can’t help myself

Congrats on the award! It’s well deserved. And can I just say that Aphrodisia has the best covers. Both of these are smokin hot. I especially love Simply Wicked. I would love to be that woman right now
