September Science Fiction Romance Promo! #SFRBlast #SciFi #Romance





Hello! The next fantastic promo of 99cent and free Science Fiction Romance ebooks starts today! It runs all this week.

I love how S.M. Schmitz put all the Portals in this. If you haven't been able to see them all in one place yet, here is the chance. So easy to grab all seven!

The new SFR Brigade anthology from this summer, "Romancing the Stars: 8 Short Stories of Galactic Romance and Adventure" is also in this promotion. It is 99cents, but the price will be raised to $2.99 after this promotion, so this is the last chance to get it at the low price.

And so many other fantastic science fiction romances; over 50 fantastic authors and books!

Happy reading!

SFR Brigade Showcase: Portals #SFRB #SciFi #Romance



Welcome to August's SFR Brigade Showcase! Here you'll find new releases, recommended reads, and fun topics. Everyone participating in this month's showcase can be found here: SFR Brigade Showcase. Go check out their posts too. :)




I am sure many, if not most, of you have heard of the SFR Brigade's Portals project. It started off with four volumes, the first of which was published in May. Each volume contains ten first chapters of great science fiction romance from forty sci-fi romance authors.

What you may not know is that the project was so well received that three more volumes were added! Volume Five was published at the end of July and Volume Six will be released this month. Volume Seven includes story starts from twelve authors (releasing in September), so all together the Portals project involves 70 authors and 72 different science fiction romance first chapters.




The idea behind this great effort is for old and new readers of the genre to find science fiction romance stories all in one place. The reader can read the first chapters of any or all of these stories and decide if he/she wants to buy the full book. Did I say it is all science fiction romance all in one easy place? This is what I love so much about this project; that I know it's SFR and that it tells me where to find it. Yes!

For awhile at least, as I go through all 72 of these wonderful books, I won't have to peruse the Paranormal aisle trying to interpret which of those stories are actually Science Fiction Romance. Thank goodness Amazon does have a SFR category, but even that gets muddled sometimes, as some titles don't end up there and some Paranormal romance gets through. I don't want to read Paranormal romance; I want to read Science Fiction romance! I know I'm not the only person with this problem.

The person on the cover is the Portal Keeper, Sender Najan. At first, each volume was to contain like heat levels. Example: Volume One is considered Medium heat level. Volume Two is considered Hot. Volume Three is Mild. When it came to the last four volumes, the heat level is considered an "all-encompassing romantic blend." I honestly don't care what the heat level is, just as long as it's SFR.

Portals: Volumes One through Five are available on all ebook retailers. You can find links to your favorite retailer for all volumes on the Portals website here: http://sfrportals.blogspot.com/. (See links under each book cover at the right of the page).

Portals: Volume Four and Portals: Volume Five are included in the popular Patty Jansen Promo that is going on right now too: http://pattyjansen.com/promo/. This promo runs August 6-7 and includes FREE books. The Portals volumes will always be free, but there are some great SFR books that you can grab while they're free too!

Happy reading!

Portals: Volume Five is Out! #scifi #romance #SFRB



Announcing Portals: Volume Five! Portals is a project sponsored by the Science Fiction Romance Brigade to bring more awareness to the Science Fiction Romance genre. It is also your one-stop shop for sci fi romance. Involving more than 70 authors, there will be seven volumes of Portals by Fall of this year. Today is the official release date of Volume Five, a Portals that I am so excited to be a part of!

Each Portals has ten first chapters of science fiction romance stories by ten different authors. Included with each one is a story description, author bio, and fun snippets on why the author wrote the story or how he/she got the inspiration for the story. Then the reader is given links to buy the rest of the book if they would like. I love the Portals idea and have found numerous sci fi romance books to read myself!

Blurb:

Welcome! You have arrived at a portal to the galaxy.

Enter, and you'll be introduced by award-winning authors to worlds beyond imagining, with heroes & heroines who dare to take it to the edge and beyond. Count on these adventurers to take their best shot … at their enemies and at romance!

3 Amazing SFR Brigade Projects

Hello! I posted this on the Science Fiction Romance Brigade blog, but want to include it on my blog as well. Enjoy!

The SFRB community has been pulling together, working on some amazing projects. The 1st fantastic project, one I am so jealous I couldn't be a part of, is Portals. This is an absolute genius idea. I love it so much and have already found some new books to read. This project includes four volumes of books full of first chapters by forty, that's 40, different SFR authors. Wow! These chapters are gateways, or portals, to each of these authors' amazing worlds. So far, the first two volumes have been published. There is a Portals blog to read more about how this super project came together: http://sfrportals.blogspot.com/







The 2nd project is a ten book SFR giveaway brought to you by ten authors of the SFRB. And those 10 books are print copies! One lucky winner will win all 10 paperbacks. This giveaway ends May 31st. To enter, click on the following link: http://www.spajonas.com/giveaways/scifi-romance-paperback-giveaway/








The 3rd project, and one I'm so happy to be a part of, is "Romancing the Stars: 8 Short Stories of Galactic Romance and Adventure." This anthology includes short stories between 4,000 and 8,000 words by eight different authors from the SFRB. It was so fun doing this, the authors being super supportive of each other and motivating each of us to write some wonderful stories. "Romancing the Stars" is available for pre-order now: https://www.amazon.com/Romancing-Stars-Stories-Galactic-Adventure-ebook/dp/B01G2V9AW4
