Happy Birthday, Choc Lit! ~ Celebrating seven superb years …

In tribute to my fabulous award-winning publishing team, here are seven fab things I love about Choc Lit.

1~ The name. Choc for chocolate and Lit for literary. Who could fail to smile at that delicious combo? I mean, books and chocs? Heaven!

2~ The logo. Warm, welcoming and instantly recognisable. Love it!

 

3~ The team at head office and beyond who offers its readers and bloggers such variety, some darker issues, others lighter, but all with romance at heart. And to its authors, from manuscript submission to editing to publication day and thereafter, that family feel, passion for our books and professionalism.

4~ Those stunning covers. I’ve had so many compliments about mine and heard so many people raving about others too. Big cheer for our very special designer Berni Stevens Lucky us!

5~ Camaraderie and encouragement among the authors. Lotsa love, laughter and literary cheerleading and advice.

Choc Lit authors aplenty!

Me and my fellow ChocLitier and Romaniacs blogger, Laura James

6~ The Tasting Panel ~ a dedicated team of independent readers who assess each manuscript. We also now have our Choc Lit Stars; fans of our work who help spread the word about us.

7~ Choc Lit Spread ~ our online magazine packed full of news, views, comps and fab deals. And our Choc Lit treats  – short stories published online by our various authors, all with that taste of romance running through them.

 

I could go on and on and on …

Here’s to another seven years.

Cheers, Choc Lit! Happy Birthday!
