We’re back after an unforeseen hiatus last week due to a bout of writerly malaise. In this episode we talk about a BBC Radio 4 podcast we enjoy, our latest Netflix binge, and our weekend plans to visit exciting Luxembourg. And we also want someone to slide into our DM, whatever that means.

When they see each other again after more than a decade apart, they realize they may be soulmates. Can they ever find their way back to one another?

A Swing at Love, the golf romance I co-wrote with my Mrs, is out of Kindle Unlimited and now available from all retailers!
Blurb
Diane Thompson is happy enough. Her successful accounting firm allows her plenty of time to play all the golf she wants and enjoy her life in small Sussex village Tynebury. She’s finally over the divorce from her husband, but potential suitors are few and far between for a fifty-something woman in the English countryside.
Tamsin Foxley is determined to keep matters of the heart separated from her new teaching job at the Royal Tynebury Golf Club after a disastrous romantic experience put an end to her previous employment. She has also vowed to no longer fall for women almost half her age.
When the new season starts at the golf club, Diane and Tamsin become fast friends. Their feelings for each other quickly go in an unexpected direction and they both have to reevaluate what it is they want from life.
Can Diane overcome her fear of falling for a woman? And can Tamsin accept her taste in women may have changed?
Find out in this sweet romance by best-selling lesbian romance author Harper Bliss and her wife Caroline in her debut effort.

On sale in my web shop now: From Top to Bottom: Lesbian Stories of Dominance and Submission
Here’s the blurb
Brace yourself, because there will be pain—but of the oh, so pleasurable kind. There will be begging and there will be bruises, but all leading to an obliterating climax. The fifteen lesbian stories of dominance and submission contained within the pages of From Top To Bottom will make you flinch like the characters do, will make you squirm and want to turn the pages faster and faster. You will find first-time players and long-term couples. A plethora of paddles and the occasional flogger—and a great number of sore backsides. Be warned.
With stories from experienced writers at the top of their game and thrilling new talents alike, all of them exploring power dynamics from top to bottom, this collection is kinky, daring and, at times, deliciously violent. Read at your own risk.

On this week’s episode, we’ve barely recovered from our night out on Saturday. Harper talks about how Clare Lydon inspired her current writing experiment and helped her make a big decision. Caroline, on the other hand, is not so pleased with Clare.

2019 isn’t about writing an insane amount of words for me, it’s more about taking stock and seeing how I can improve and write the most satisfactory books in the future.
I’ve started this process with an in-depth look at my current backlist. I have to say, when I listed all the books I’ve written and published in the past six and a half years, I went slightly dizzy. 😉
I made a list of all my books by publication date and by series/type/length. You can find the list below:

You might have noticed a new menu item at the top of my website, namely: ‘SHOP‘!
As I blogged about before, this year is (amongst other things) all about distributing my books through as many retailers as possible. One of those ‘retailers’ is my very own webshop!
Buying one of my ebooks directly from me has the advantage that I don’t have to split any royalties with the retailer, which is (as you can imagine) a big plus. I’ve chosen Payhip to sell my books direct, because they’re easy to use for me as well as for potential shoppers.
To celebrate that almost all my books (*) are now available from my very own webshop, I’m running a webshop-only promotion for No Greater Love Than Mine. I hope to extend the series somewhat this year and although this is only a novella, it packs a real (sexy) punch and it was one of the highlights of my writing year in 2018.
Here’s the blurb:
Twenty years ago, Angela Hill and Jackie Smith shared a forbidden night of passion, leaving Angela heartbroken after Jackie returned to her husband.
When Angela is forced into counselling after a workplace injury, her path unexpectedly crosses Jackie’s again. Their circumstances may have changed, but has time healed the wounds of the past? And can Angela and Jackie open themselves up to a second chance at love?
Find out in this scorching hot novella full of emotion from best-selling lesbian romance author Harper Bliss
Word count: 18.000 words
Get No Greater Love Than Mine for $0.99 instead of $2.99 only via my webshop >>
I’ll be doing webshop-only price promotions like this every other week. I’ll post them here and I will send them out via my bi-weekly newsletter as well.
Enjoy!
(*) The rest of the Pink Bean series and A Swing at Love will be available everywhere in February.
