The Lesbian Book Club with Harper Bliss

Posted on

Episode seven of The Lesbian Book Club features an interview with Hong Kong-based lesbian fiction author Harper Bliss. We have a fab chat about her writing process, penning erotica and sex scenes, making the leap into writing full-blown novels with her international smash At The Water’s Edge, and running a publishing company with her wife, Ladylit Publishing. Harper is prolific and funny, and will make you green with envy when she reveals where she holds her business meetings!

Also this episode, I do a run-down of the Amazon Lesbian charts in the UK and the US, as well as updating you on the progress of my third book, which now has a cover and a name – it’s called This London Love and is a follow-on from London Calling. More details when I know them. Hope you enjoy the podcast!

It’s been a great start to the week for my debut novel London Calling, which came second in the 2014 Rainbow Awards Best Cover Contest, making it through from hundreds of initial entries. I still love the cover and the congratulations should go to my designer and friend Kevin Pruitt who did a stellar job. Well done to all the winners & runners-up, and a huge round of applause to Eliza Reviews for putting together the whole shebang.
