Writing from this point of view is something that's been teasing at the back of my mind for a long time and I finally decided to take the plunge. Actually, it was reading her books that first interested me in BDSM and the more I researched it and read about it, the more I understood it and became fascinated by it. <br />I belve at the moment we have 14 authors listed for the series, but of course not all of them are out yet We have big plans for the series so spread the word!!!!!!<br />And fee; free to ask me questions any time at desireeholt@desireeholt.comDesiree Holthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15998620493796031671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-23473826485282773802011-01-27T00:10:53.842-05:002011-01-27T00:10:53.842-05:00I thought the blurb was HOT!!! & then I read t...I thought the blurb was HOT!!! & then I read the excerpt.

Now you've got me looking at phone numbers and wondering what they would spell. . . <br /><br />What inspired you to write BDSM? And what inspired you to explore the female Dom side of it when you haven't written about it before?<br /><br /><br />jessangil at gmail dot com<br /><br />-Jessicajessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05598281441740484352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-21157196832834939892011-01-26T20:07:23.930-05:002011-01-26T20:07:23.930-05:00This book sounds HOT!

And each synopsis is read by the others to make sure it fits.Then the entire proposal is submitted to the publisher who also has to approve it and make sure all the storylines are consistent with the bible. We want to make sure we give our readers what we promised them.

I have to keep a spread sheet now so that doesn't happen.<br />The hardest part of writing this story? Writing from the viewpoint of a female Domme because my females are all subs. It was a great experience.<br />And how did we get the name. Well, it was really funny. A bunch of us were sitting around the bar at the last RT convention and someone mentioned that she'd had to call someplace for maintenance the other day and the telephone numbers translated to 1-800-DOMHelp!Desiree Holthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15998620493796031671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-77640805600467755292011-01-26T16:01:55.573-05:002011-01-26T16:01:55.573-05:00Congrats on the new release, Desiree.

I fall in love with my heroes and love to see them come to life.<br />The idea for the 1-800 series came from a discussion I think at last year's RT convention when one of the authors said she called for some kind of business help and the numbers literally translated into 1-800-DOMHelp. All of us in the group write BDSM from the light to the heavy, and it's also an opportunity to tell people what it's really all about.Desiree Holthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15998620493796031671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-87290948373094550172011-01-26T10:40:01.442-05:002011-01-26T10:40:01.442-05:00Congrats on the new release!
