Hello all! Now, I wasn't the only author hit by the whole "not paid" issue, and I'm also not the only one who decided to go ahead and put their works up with new covers and some new content.
Shira Glassman has been doing that (and the new covers are super cute). Just as a reminder, if you want to buy any of these, make sure you're getting one of the new covers, otherwise she won't get paid.
Shira is best known for her Mangoverse novels. The first of which is The Second Mango.
Blurb:
Queen Shulamit never expected to inherit the throne of the tropical land
of Perach so young. At twenty, grief-stricken and fatherless, she's
also coping with being the only lesbian she knows after her sweetheart
ran off for an unknown reason. Not to mention, she's the victim of
severe digestive problems that everybody thinks she's faking. When she
meets Rivka, an athletic and assertive warrior from the north who wears a
mask and pretends to be a man, she finds the source of strength she
needs so desperately.
Unfortunately for her, Rivka is straight,
but that's okay -- Shulamit needs a surrogate big sister just as much as
she needs a girlfriend. Especially if the warrior's willing to take her
around the kingdom on the back of her dragon in search of other women
who might be open to same-sex romance. The real world outside the palace
is full of adventure, however, and the search for a royal girlfriend
quickly turns into a rescue mission when they discover a temple full of
women turned to stone by an evil sorcerer.
The series continues to have a lot of heart and it's great for a pretty wide audience. Her name above links to her Amazon profile, which has a full list of titles.
She's also written some fantastic short fiction, as well! Wet Nails and Fearless have just been released again with some fun new cover art
Official blurb for Wet Nails:
Lonely grad student Adina Greenberg is in for a treat when the glamorous
ghost of Rose Hamilton, her favorite 1950s Hollywood actress, comes out
of the television to give her a manicure and great sex. This story
explores contrasting versions of bisexuality: Adina's open preference
for women vs. the closets and dangers of Rose's era.
