Those too (?) sexy covers…
October 20th, 2007
They can range from beautiful to raunchy, but there’s no denying those ultra graphic covers get attention. 
The question is good or bad? Do they work for you? Why do publishers go there? Do they need to? Does it bother you to buy them? Inconvenience you because you don’t want your kids or other people’s children to see them? What’s too sexy for you? What’s too subtle?
This is the discussion of the week on my yahoo group and we’ve been fortunate to have Susan Pezzack Swinwood, Editor of SPICE and Mira, be extremely generous with her time and provide extensive input on the philosophy behind Spice covers, how market factors play into cover choice and other such interesting behind the scenes information. Feel free to come on over and join in. We’re a very civilized group. No name calling no attacking. There’s no right response to any of these questions and no wrong response and no one ever gets flamed for their opinion because, well, everyone is entitled. We just sometimes like to discuss the controversial subjects in the chat setting. 
Just be advised there is no copying of material from the group. Material is copyrighted. What’s said there stays there. One does have to register to participate to keep out spammers but this is a chat group where people participate at will and no one who stops by is ever added to any mailing list. 
Best,

The battle of the bulge escalates

My dresses came

ACK! In pursuit of a decent dress

So I’ve got to go to a wedding in September. It’s an evening wedding which means formal wear. The question becomes what does a buxom, overweight romance writer of no discernible height find to wear? 
I’ll let you know when I find it!

WOOT! (We’re 16 inches below normal rainfall) I didn’t realize how much the constant sunshine was bothering me until 
Well, if it’s mine, apparently 2.5 hours. 
just contracted me to write 
the next two books in the series. The Hell’s Eight 
rides on with Tucker and Tracker’s stories!
I joined Curves. Not that I need more curves, just the opposite. I need to get rid of a few that bulked up over the summer. 
I went with the monthly plan because their yearly contract is horrible. Full of pitfalls and lockins. Hopefully, I will 
make my butt go. I kind of like that it’s not a gym. That I go in, have a routine set, and go through it. I do best with stuff that’s get in and get out clean. 
They were sharp and wonderful. They even fit across my hips but, 
the bust was so tight it was like wearing a breast band. 
Why do people that make petite dresses assume we do not have breasts?
