Confession Time at SF....and Some News

Hello all. I have a secret...would you like me to share it with you? Well, alright, since you twisted my arm and all...

Guess what? We don't post under our real names. *Le Gasp* Can you believe it? That's right, Dear Readers, you heard it here first. My name is not, in fact, Holly. Dylan isn't Dylan, Grace isn't Grace, Izzy isn't Izzy and Jazz isn't Jazz. Amazing, isn't it (did you note the sarcasm there? Just wanted to be sure).

We just figured, after 7 months of posting, we'd come out of the closet, so to speak. Each of us have a different reason for blogging under an alias. Those reasons are our own and we've decided not to share them, or our real names for that matter. Some of you know, and we ask - humbly - that you keep them to yourselves. Some of you also know our reasons for posting under assumed names, and we ask that you keep those to yourselves as well. It wouldn't be the end of the world if we were outted, but our lives are so much more peaceful like this. Really.

So, there you have it, we've let the cat out of the bag. You're not surprised, are you? LOL

As long as I have your attention..I do, don't I? I would hate to think your mind has already wandered. J/K You know I love you all, right?

As I was saying, since I already have your attention, we're working on a few new things here at SF and we'd like your thoughts and opinions on them.

First of all, we're in the process of lining up some author interviews. Though we love some of our more established authors, we're actually more interested (for the time being) in some of the new, up and coming authors. If you happen to be an author who has just been signed with a Publishing House or whose first novel has just been released and would like to promote yourself here, email us and we'll consider your request. Of course, if you'd like to butter us up for it, we'll humbly accept praise on your website or blog and ARC's. LOL

The lovely and very talented Rene Lyons has already agreed to let us torture interview her, so look for that next week. In the meantime, though, hop over to her blog and give her a shoutout. She's also giving away a copy of her first novel, Midnight Sun, which is scheduled to be released on July 18th from Samhain Publishing. You can enter her contest here.

Second, we're working on some contests ourselves and we'll have some great prizes to give away in the next few months, so be sure to check back with us. Though we're still in the planning stages, we hope to have our first contest ready to roll by the middle of next month. Comments and suggestions are always appreciated. Whether as a comment here on the site or in an email, we're straight.

So, now you know our secret and our upcoming plans. Do you feel special? You totally should, we wouldn't just share these things with anyone, you know.
