Greet & Eat III: Austin, Texas

In North Carolina, we apologized in advance for everything.  In Atlanta, we refused to apologize.  In 2014, there ain’t an apology in sight.  We’re descending upon Texas with pre-meditated alibis.  Grab your boots, your hat, and your Posse and come join us in Austin for Greet & Eat III. 

At past Eat & Greets we engaged in some good, old-fashioned southern mayhem.  This year we’ve got some brand new, prototype mayhem planned.   As always we have fantastic authors, smoking hot reads, good eats and sweat tea.  The Jeanie and Jayha have an awesome agenda. The Hyatt Regency is an exceptional facility.  The only thing left to say is YEE-HAW!http://beautifultroublepublishing.com/author-greet-eat-iii.html

Quit Happens by Jeanie Johnson and Jayha Leigh

Book 1 in the Rho Beta Omicron Tau series:

Welcome to the Rho Beta Omicron Tau series, a mayhem-filled shenanigans fest brought to you by the chicks that run Beautiful Trouble Publishing, Mocha Memoirs Press and Shara Azod Publishing...and their authors. 

When was a lie preferable to the truth?  When you were the founding members of Rho Beta Omicron Tau Sorority and someone was asking you how R.B.O.T. was started.  Being drunk would’ve gone a long way to explaining what the hell happened but the only lie the ladies could actually pull off with any type of credibility was saying ‘they didn’t do it.’ 

Unable to buy their way into a sorority for various reasons, none of which could be proven…at least not by anyone who was still alive, Pluck Brevard, Ozella Crown, Shelley Nichols, Simone Pisgah and Esther Prynne decided to establish their own so they could party with the other Greeks on campus.  No one partied like the Greeks, except for maybe the Germans during October Fest, Brazilians during Carnival and maybe southerners at state fairs.  Figuring all they needed was a glue gun, some glitter letters, some stuff to put it on and a motto, they submitted their paperwork to be recognized as Rho Beta Omicron Tau sorority, thusly named because their university wouldn’t approve a sorority called Ridiculously Big Old Titties and R.B.O.T. had more flair when using the Greek alphabet. 

Despite having graduate degrees, the women of Rho Beta Omega Tau had more moxie than sense; only a modicum of give a damn and were magnets for mayhem.  Come enjoy the adventures of the original chapter.

Shenanigans!

Blame author Janet Eckford for this! We’re going to kick off the new year with a bang, and a ka-pow, and a ka-plowee! But before we get to the new year, we have to finish 2012 with a WTF (what the f*ck)! A NFW (no f*cking way)! and an AMF (adios, MF). Just how will we go about that? A scavenger hunt. And it begins here…on this blog.


You might be asking why you should participate, and we’d respond ‘because it’s us!’

You might be asking what you will get if you win, and we’d say: something good.

You might be asking what you have to do in order to participate, and we’d respond: blog-hop, dear readers. Blog hop.

Your first clue is here…on this very blog…it is a direction to another blog.

By the way, if you haven’t done so, check out Coffee Time Romance, three BTP authors are having contests: http://www.coffeetimeromance.com/ContestPage.html

Christin Lovell coming 01 December 2012

Beautiful Trouble Publishing Slumber Party is happy to announce that the guest for 01 December 2012 is Christin Lovell.

Christin Lovell grew up in Charleston, South Carolina, where she was surrounded by rich inspiration for first poems, then songs, followed by short stories, and finally, her vampeen series.

Since then, she’s moved to Orlando, Florida, given birth to three beautiful children, who keep her at the brink of insanity, and come into her own, fully accepting and loving her curves. She’s also ventured into writing about just that: full figured women embracing their curves. Of course, with fiction, these women do this with a hot, sexy alpha male… or two. After all, every one deserves a HEA, even those with excess sexiness.

Like most authors she’s encountered, Christin owns far too many books to fit on her shelves; she practically lives in her pajamas, believes coffee is a necessity, thinks silence is not always golden, and requests for all handsome heroes to apply for permanent fictionalization.

Don’t miss the chance to join in with the laughter, shenanigans and a healthy dose of inappropriate behavior to help start your week off on the good foot.

Cora Blu coming on 17 November 2012

Beautiful Trouble Publishing Slumber Party is happy to announce that the guest for 17 November 2012 is Cora Blu.

Hello everyone. My name is Cora Blu and I write Contemporary Interracial Romance as well as a Parafantasy Romance Series. Coming from a large family, four brothers, two sister, I never lack for inspiration for characters.

I was raised believing family is the backbone of everything. So all my stories will have a family at the core. And growing up my best friends were in their sixties.

I’ve been asked why I write interracial. My mother would always say she didn’t care if he was purple with white spots, if when you closed the door and you’re still happy that’s what matters.

Every story I write creates itself after I’ve met, bumped into or spoke to someone in line somewhere. One scene in every book is true. In my fantasy novella “Max” the scene with the sterling silver rose in the office is true and inspired the story.

My underwater series is inspired from my Science teacher over twenty years ago, the koi in my backyard pond, Jacque Cousteau and Twenty thousand leagues under the Sea. On my Pinterest page you can see pictures of my koi and my garden.

I am a mother of three girls and married to my pre-K sweetheart. We met when his father helped my father move. He told my mother to save the one with the dirty knees for him. (I was in the sandbox get your mind out the gutter) He is my best friend and it makes writing loving couples easy.

You can find me, when not in the garden at:

Melissa Blue coming 10 November 2012

Beautiful Trouble Publishing Slumber Party is happy to announce that the guest for 10 November is Melissa Blue.

Melissa Blue's writing career started on a typewriter one month after her son was born. This would have been an idyllic situation for a writer if it had been 1985, not 2004. Eventually she upgraded to a computer. She's still typing away on the same computer, making imaginary people fall in love.

Shelby Morgen

Beautiful Trouble Publishing Slumber Party is happy to announce that the guest for 03 November 2012 is Shelby Morgen.


Shelby Morgen loves writing offbeat tales that defy as many rules as possible. She likes chocolate with her peanut butter, suspense with her romance, and kink with her sex.

Shelby shares her belief in electronic publishing with her longtime friend and partner, Bill, her husband of 30+ years. Visit

Shelby’s website, http://ShelbyMorgen.com for her latest releases.

She’s got a neglected blog and a Facebook page, but she doesn’t hang out there much -- the Vampire Wars will suck her in.
