Well, not all that much news, really. The main thing is that I've heard back from my agent about
In The Flesh and she thinks it's "excellent"! She's also very pleased that I've completed it in time to submit it to the editor a full two months before my stated deadline.
I've also received a couple of lovely reviews for my
Ladies' Sewing Circle titles,
A Gentlewoman's Predicament and
A Gentlewoman's Ravishment, both from author, editor and reviewer
Lucy Felthouse. Lucy has long been a supporter of my work, and I'm delighted that she's enjoyed my latest offerings.
Here's what she has to say about
A Gentlewoman's Predicament...
I’ve read lots of Portia Da Costa’s work in the past, but this is the first historical erotica of hers that I’ve read. And I have to say that although it’s a huge departure from her contemporary stuff, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. It’s been so brilliantly written that you forget that you’re actually in modern times, as opposed to Victorian England. The tone, the language and the dialogue are perfectly crafted and it makes for a fab read!
And now, her thoughts on A Gentlewoman's Ravishment...
This is a fabulous story in this series from Portia Da Costa. I actually preferred this to the first, and based on these two, can’t wait to see what’s going to happen to the Victorian ladies next. Recommended.
I'd also like to point my visitors in the direction of a fantastic new web site set up by Lucy...
