• RLF Gems

    Saying goodbye to the Romance Lives Forever blog #RLFblog

    As of today, Dec 1, 2023, I am closing Romance Lives Forever. Why? I'm organized and efficient, but with as much as I want to do going forward, I can no longer maintain RLF. I used Triberr to amplify the blog on social media, especially Twitter. The new requirements and limits from Twitter cut exposure by a huge margin. Triberr brought 80%+ of all readers to the blog. Since it's no longer active, that cost another huge drop in traffic.

    It costs a bit to run the blog, register its domain name, pay for the signup/reminder service, and it takes time to chase down people who send things last minute (or not at all). Plus I have to let authors know the service is available. Then I format the material, resize the images, upload everything, and schedule its promotion. Alas, time and money won out.

    I started the blog in 2009, and went to daily posts in 2010. I've explored many ways to do all this and still find time to write and market for myself. I hired an assistant last year, but only I can write the stories in my heart. I am loath to give up, not being a quitter by nature.

    When it's Time to Quit

    Last month, I heard Becca Syme (one of my mentors) say that it's time to quit when you no longer love what you do. Becca is brilliant. I took her Strengths for Writers and Write Better-Faster courses in the last 12 months. Each came with 6 months of follow up calls and targeted counseling. Changed my life in so many ways. Here's the video I'm referring to if you're curious. https://youtu.be/GRG5UeFYihE

    Daily monitoring this blog is not what I love. What I love is supporting other authors, and the blog was how I did that. I will still support them but in ways that leave time for my own priorities. It took more than a year for me to decide to do this (or rather, stop doing this). I almost didn't commit to 2023, but felt guilty for quitting. It wasn't until I heard Becca's comment last month that I gave myself permission to do what I had to do. She wasn't talking about blogging, or anything even close to what I was doing. She was talking about writing in the golden age of publishing (the new era we've recently entered), and how to know what to do next (or stop doing).

    The video was from Ream, which is a new subscription platform for authors. I've just launched mine. I attended an accelerator class with a handful of other authors in a small-group setting for mentorship. Wonderful support and I learned things I never expected.


    Some of the Many Authors Who Made RLF a Success

    Adriana Kraft, Alexa Aston, Alina K Field, Amber Daulton, Anne Kane, Brenda Sparks, Daryl Devore, Dee S Knight, Effrosyni Moschoudi, Faye Hall, Iris Blobel, J Arlene Culiner, Jami Gray, Jana Richards, Karen Cino, Kate Hill, Kris Bock, Linda O'Connor, Lisabet Sarai, Livia Quinn, NJ Walters, Seelie Kay, Tena Stetler, Tina Donahue, Veronica Scott, Vicki Batman

    I'll miss the blog. It's been a part of my life during most of my career as an author. I look forward to what comes after this, and having the time and freedom to pursue the next steps.

  • Science Fiction Romance

    Read the science fiction series Terras Five by Anne Kane @AnneKane #RLFblog #SciFi #SciFiRomance

    Read the science fiction series Terras Five by Anne Kane @AnneKane #RLFblog #SciFi #SciFiRomanceAnne, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your Terras Five Cyborg series.

    How Terras Five came to be.

    I am seriously in love with my Terras Five Cyborg series, and hope my readers are too. I’ve always enjoyed science fiction and wanted to pair that with romance. My original idea was to have a planet full of Alpha males who were used to submissive females. Then I’d pair them with human females who don’t always (or ever!) do what they are ordered. The results were even better than I anticipated.

    Terras Five is a planet colonized by humans who chose to become Cyborg in order to survive the harsh environment they found themselves in. The children are born human, receiving cybernetic implants during their childhood. This means that humans and Cyborgs are genetically compatible, since they have a common ancestry. The planet now has a stable population, but the lifestyle they have developed is considered strange by the humans that occupy the other planets in that part of the galaxy. Terras Five males are Cyborg, but the females are fully human and live in pampered enclaves. The females’ sole purpose is to produce offspring for the colony.

    Inevitably, there are cultural clashes between the Cyborgs of Terras Five and the humans in the rest of the galaxy. These clashes are what make the stories so much fun to write. The romances are all about the interactions of human and Cyborg and how both cultures come to realize their differences are not as important as what they feel for each other. Of course, there’s lots of action along the way!

    To date, there are seven books in the series with several more planned. Did I mention I love the Cyborgs of Terras Five? Did I mention that book 1 – Her Cyborg Lover – is only 99 cents?

    Her Cyborg Lover

    Natalie’s loved and lost and she’s not so sure she wants to risk her heart again. She’s willing to settle for a challenging career as a space-pilot instructor and a succession of no-strings attached lovers. But that’s before her boss saddles her with the last thing she wants—a new partner.

    Jebediah recognizes his perfect match in Natalie from the moment she seduces him on a dare. Everything that makes her a top-notch pilot, from her fearlessness to her passion, make a night in her bed both challenging and unforgettable.

    A dangerous confrontation with a brutal enemy, an exploding drive engine and a traitor close to home throw everything into perspective. Natalie is going to have to put the past behind her and risk it all, because when your partner is also your lover, failure is not an option.

    Selkie’s Seduction by Anne Kane

    Paranormal Romance
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    From award winning author Anne Kane comes the tale of a sexy Druid and a sassy Selkie with a fear of commitment.
    When Nikki’s sister sends a modern day Druid to warn her about impending danger, the attraction is instant and mutual, but the Selkie is having none of Wolfe’s silly talk about destined mates. Her animal form is a free-spirited otter, and she fears the call of the wild might be too strong to allow her to settle down and raise a family. Her greatest fear is that the call of the ocean will lure her away from her family, and her children will suffer as she did when her own mother deserted her.
    But when the danger becomes all too real, Nikki’s link with the sexy Druid is her only comfort, and she realizes some risks just might be worth taking.
    Why did you write this book?
    I wanted to write a story where normal people lived side by side with the mystical. Since my family roots are in Scotland, I have always been fascinated by tales of the Druids who protected the lands and the trees so when I was looking for a hero to protect the heroine in my story, a Druid seemed like the obvious choice.
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    It depends on my mood. I usually go for paranormal romance, or science fiction. Occasionally I read suspense and mystery. I rarely read non-fiction unless I’m doing research or need it for work.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    I think that would have to be Captian Malcolm Reynold from Serenity J
    What are you working on at the moment?
    Having just finished a book, I’m at the decision point for the next one. I’m trying to decide whether to do another book in my Cyborg series, or maybe do a lighter Christmas type story. The other option is to finish the suspense novel that I started a couple of years ago during nano. I have around 60K written on it but it’s not finished. Too many projects on the go!
    What books will we see from you in coming months?
    I just finished a contemporary Novella for Changeling Press Rooster series, called Ride ’em Cowboy. My beta readers say it’s a departure from my usual genre but they really liked it. It still has to go through edits, but I believe it is on the release schedule for mid September.

    Anne Kane lives in the beautiful Okanagan Valley with a bouncy little rescue dog who’s breed defies description, a cantankerous Himalayan cat, and too many fish to count. She spent many years trying to fit in and act normal, but finally gave up the effort. She started writing romance in 2008, and her fate was sealed when she won a publishing contract with Red Sage Publishing and just a month later Changeling Press accepted her first submission. Since then she had published more than thirty stories in a variety of sub-genres, all with a happily ever after.
    Her hobbies, when she’s not playing with the characters in her head, include kayaking, hiking, swimming, playing guitar, singing and of course, reading.
