I just got word from Doctor Charley with the books that made the finalist list in the Golden Flogger Awards and am excited to share them here! I see several of my favorite authors (Tiffany Reisz, Annabel Joseph, D.L. King, Cherise Sinclair, Raven Kaldera!) have made the list and I am betting the ones I don’t know will make an excellent reading list!
The winners will be announced at BDSM Writers Con in New York City, in a ceremony on Thursday August 20th. The convention runs from August 19 through Sunday, August 23 (when there will be a BDSM Book Fair from noon to 4pm open to the public).
