Happy Holidays to all! I hope the Holiday madness hasn’t got to any one yet. After all it only comes once a year!

To celebrate the release of my first print book, Just Between Friends and the release of my first Christmas anthology, Hot, Naughty and Nice, I will be chatting on TwoLipsReviews yahoo group on Dec 12th from 8pm to 10 pm EST. I’ll be promoting my new books, Christmas recipes and any other topic which might come up!

I will also be giving away an autographed copy of my book, Just Between Friends. To win all you’ll have to do is answer the three questions I’ll post during the chat. All the answers will be on my website. So I look to see everyone there.

Chat with Dakota on Two Lips on Dec 12th!

Hey all!  Got some good news today!  Jennifer Campbell, a fellow eXcessia author,  and I are scheduled for a three hour chat on Talking TwoLips, on Friday, October 24th from 7pm to 10pm.   So please feel free to drop by!  Jen and I will both be giving away a free e-book and we’ll have exciting excerpts to our new books.

So please join us at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TalkingTwoLips/ on the 24th!

We look forward to chatting with you!

I’ve just sent out The Mating of Rebekah to several review sites.  I’m crossing my fingers that one will review it!

In other news, I am currently working on Aathi Chhetri~The Eighth Warrior, my newest story.   It is a revised verison of The Girl From Nepal, an on going story I’ve been posting on Literotica and Storiesonline.  I plan on finishing it and submitting it to my publisher near the first of the year.

Also I am happy to announce that two of my fellow authors and myself are putting together an anthology for the Holidays.   Although the title is yet undecided, Vivian Vincent, Milena Gomez and myself are hard at work getting it ready now.  So look for it sometime after Thanksgiving!

Exciting news!  The Mating of Rebekah is being released tomorrow by eXcessica.   I’m very happy about it to say the least.   To read an excerpt and purchase it you can find it at http://excessica.com/index.php/books/the-mating-of-rebekah-by-dakota-trace/

A special friend of mine and fellow author, Sheri, whipped up this banner for me.   I just love it!   So why not check us both out on Excessica!

Congrats to Marcy A.!   She is the lucky winner of the free copy of my e-book, Just Between Friends.   A thank you to all who entered.

A RETURN TO VENUS

For all those crazy people who enjoyed Magic and Healer’s Touch, starting the first of November I continue the story where it left off in Healer’s Touch.  A King’s Touch is Philip and Sara’s story!

So please feel free to read along with me as Philip courts his chosen and tries to clean up ITS.

On sadder note, I will be pulling Magic Touch from both StoriesOnline and Literotica in preparation for submission to eXcessica.   But not to worry it will be up for a bit longer.  Until I hear that it has been accepted I am planning on leaving it up, on these two great sites! ~Dakota

I have a very busy week but wanted to let you know of a few upcoming dates!   As most know, I have my give away contest in full swing at the moment and I’m enjoying the answers I’m getting.   On Saturday be sure to visit the excessica blog and I’ll be blogging about the answers I’ve been getting.  What do you think?  Will the Friends pull ahead or will the mysterious strangers take it all?    Don’t forget to check back on Sunday as I will announce the winner of  a free copy of Just Between Friends!

I’ve also been fortunate enough this week to be featured on Donuts and Desires, a fellow author’s blog page.   It was awful nice of her to release my Quick Six in time for the release of Just Between Friends.

I also wanted to throw out a quick thank you to everyone who has purchased Friends.   On Mobipocket.com,  I made the number one spot for my publisher, which just tickles me pink.   Not to mention the wonderful emails I have received from the readers!

My interview on Donuts and Desire snuck up on me.  When I did the interview, I wasn’t expecting it to post so soon!  Not that I am complaining.

In celebration of the release of my first full length novel, I am giving away a free copy of Just Between Friends, to one lucky winner.  Just email me the answer to the following question to be entered into the drawing!

Who do you think would make a better lover?  Your best friend or a mysterious stranger?

I will be drawing one lucky winner on Sept 14th!

I have also got the cover at for my next book from Excessica.   I like it!  Selena did a wonderful job on it!
