This is a fantastic opportunity for authors of hot romance to showcase their work while raising funds for a great cause.

When I shared this opportunity with one of the writers groups I belong to, one of the members expressed concerns. I can assure you that Passionate Ink is a legitimate organization. They are a chapter of Romance Writers of America. The $45 annual membership dues are not a buy-in for participation in the anthology, although you do have to be a member to submit a story for potential publication. However, the dues also cover multiple free and low-cost workshops throughout the year and opportunities to interact with fellow authors, such as the word sprint I participated in this morning. This is my second year of membership, and I have never seen any sketchy or suspect behavior.
In the interest of full disclosure, I am not a member of Passionate Ink's board of directors. I am not an employee. I do not receive any sort of kickback for sharing this information. I am simply, dare I say, PASSIONATE about this chance to spread the lusty gospel of Lil DeVille's spicy storytelling while raising money for a good cause.
Proceeds from the anthology will benefit ProLiteracy. You can follow the link to learn more.
To be clear, authors will not receive payment for participating in this anthology. What you will receive is exposure (or, as my son calls it, social currency) and the chance to contribute to a great cause. You will also learn a lot about the process of publishing and promoting a story. Overall, it is a fantastic experience.
This year's theme is enemies to lovers and the story must contain an element relating to literacy. I'm already throwing ingredients in my steaming literary brew for this year's torrid tale. If you think you might like to join me, follow the link at the start of the post. It's going to be a great time!
Love,
Lil
