You can now preorder At Her Will, the next standalone title in the Mistresses of the Board Room series! Release day is 2/15/25. Yes, normally my second book of the year comes out IN the same year, and I do apologize for the delay. Real life has been a little challenging of late, PLUS this plot line is complicated. I want to make sure I give Vera and Rev the time they need to tell their story right. 📚📚📚
On the plus side, you can go ahead and order the book NOW, so on release day, it will show up on your device, ready to read! As always, the print format will be released/available about 10 days before the official release date, and I'll post that announcement on the social media sites and update the links on my website. No plans at this time for an audio version.
Last month, I mentioned I was working on the official blurb, and here it is!
“I dreem [sic] of kneeling…for her.”
It’s a simple sentence carved on a school maintenance shed wall, but it’s a message a Domme can’t ignore. Especially when Vera meets the man who wrote it, and he’s nothing like any submissive she’s encountered before.
Rev is a janitor at a middle school, and possesses a singing voice that “calls the soul home” in his family’s church. He’s the most spiritually mature and intuitive person Vera has met, a man good at caring for others; the kids at his school, his church congregation, and his family. But the relationship he yearns for with a woman is a challenge to his family’s understanding, and their control over his life’s path.
While only a Mistress with a strong spiritual compass herself can help him reconcile the two, only he can bring her the love Vera feels like she’s waited two lifetimes to have.
I look forward to sharing Vera and Rev's story with you, and giving you more teasers like these as we move toward that release date.

While all the books in the Mistresses of the Board Room series can standalone, now's a great time to meet or revisit them. The heroes for our ladies are equally compelling - a cop, a sexy biker, a former Navy SEAL and an active Navy SEAL. Click on the image to go to the Amazon series link, or use the individual book links below the graphic. I put this one together early on in the life of the series, when I found just the right cover look for each of our Mistresses. 🌸🌸🌸
At Her Command * At Her Service * At Her Call * At Her Pleasure * At Her Will (Preorder Now!)
Throughout the month, my readers and I post all sorts of great book-related things on the JWHMembersOnly group. I also put mine on the JoeyWHill Author Page, Twitter and on MeWe. This was a fun find this month, though I noted that reading EROTIC ROMANCE has a caveat. The SO/DH knows at a certain point the electric fence WILL be deactivated and he/she will be in demand IMMEDIATELY. Lol... Agree or disagree? It also crossed my mind that I have certain submissive/masochist characters who would totally be into the spikes and electric play. Maybe not that bear trap, though - ER visits are SUCH a mood killer. 
Hope everyone enjoys the cooler fall weather (where it applies), as we roll toward my favorite holiday - Halloween (aka Samhain). THANK YOU for the many ways you all support my work, not only by purchasing my books, but by spreading the love to other readers, through posting reviews, participating in book discussions in online groups, or recommending my work to friends and family. It is so tremendously appreciated, and the best kind of marketing any author can have.
Now let's check out THIS MONTH's FEATURED EBOOKS!
FEATURED EBOOKS! CLICK THE COVER OR TITLE TO DOWNLOAD.
Samantha's story is a tender but steamy menage, two heroes hiring a nanny for their daughter after losing their wife! Minx Noir brings us the complete Five Senses series under one cover, where a husband combines the five senses with his wife's love of romance novels to get her to fall for him all over again. KC gives us a "why choose" adult paranormal romance with kick-ass heroines, steamy antiheroes, and the smoldering grit of Vikings and Norse mythology. Finally Ana has a shifter romance with a big helping of suspense - plus our heroine is carrying her sworn enemy's child.
Enjoy! (Note: some featured ebooks may require newsletter sign up.)

2023 CONFERENCE SCHEDULE
No conferences this year, but look under the Extra Stuff section for ways to get a signed book or swag from me anyway!
Want a Kindle signature? My books are listed at the Authorgraph site, so if you'd like a "Kindlegraph", send me a request! Just go to Authorgraph.com, put Joey W. Hill in the search line, and it will pull up my books, with a "Request Authorgraph" button beneath each.
Want a signed bookplate for your print book and a bookmark? No need to be bummed about not seeing me at a book signing. Just shoot me an email at storywitch@PROTECTED with your mailing address and the title(s) of the book(s) for which you want a signature, and I'll send you personalized bookplates anytime, free of charge. And I always send it with a signed bookmark!
HAVE YOU CHECKED THE AUTHOR'S WEBSITE?
I am ALWAYS delighted to hear from my readers, and I never mind answering your questions. However, about 90% of the general questions I receive on email can be quickly answered on my website, www.storywitch.com. And the cool thing is you get your answer in the time it takes you to do a couple clicks, versus having to type up your question and send it to me, then wait for me to emerge from my writing cave and check my email.
A lot of authors experience this now. Because we have so much more of a presence at FB, Twitter, and the like, it's easy to forget that most authors still maintain a website where you can quickly get info. On my site, you can not only find BLURBS and FREE EXCERPTS for every book I've published, you can find SERIES ORDER, including recommendations on which ones can stand alone or need specific titles to be read first. Under the In the Works page, you'll find information about UPCOMING RELEASES and what's percolating (the popular "will you ever write a book about so-n-so" question would be answered there).
Just go to my website, storywitch.com, and enjoy your visit. It is specifically and deliberately designed not to be flashy or confusing. Just look at the drop down menus at the top for what you're seeking.
Want a SIGNED BOOKMARK? I have seven beautiful bookmarks, each design representing one of my series: Knights of the Board Room, Nature of Desire, Vampire Queen, Arcane Shot, Daughters of Arianne, Mistresses of the Board Room, and Naughty Bits. You can look at them here (click on the one you like for a larger view).
Just shoot me an email at storywitch@storywitch.com with your mailing address and tell me which bookmark you want. I'll send you two of that design - one for you and one to share! And yes, I WILL mail bookmarks to international readers. NOTE: some of these show previous cover editions, but hopefully that doesn't detract from their appeal!
Want a SIGNED BOOK? Email me at storywitch@storywitch.com with 1) what book you want, 2) your mailing address, and 3) if you want me to personalize it to a particular name (Mary, Marie, Marissa, etc), or no personalization, just a signature and a cheery note. I'll send you an invoice and, once that's squared away, the book will be on its way to you!
Want a SIGNED BOOKPLATE? Want a bookplate for your favorite JWH book(s)? Just email me at storywitch@storywitch.com with your mailing address, the title(s) of the book(s), and I'll send you personalized bookplates anytime, free of charge. I always send it with a signed bookmark!
Want to read BONUS CONTENT STORIES revisiting my characters? I have over a dozen FREE novellas/shorts with easy BookFunnel download links. You'll find them all under the Cantrips (Vignettes) menu item on my website.
Want me to visit your BOOKCLUB? I'm available for online bookclub meetings and even sometimes in-person clubs, within a reasonable geographic range. Don't hesitate to ask! Just email me at storywitch@storywitch.com.

DIDN'T GET A RESPONSE?
Responding to my readers, and doing so in a very timely manner (within 24-48 hours), is extremely important to me. So if you have sent a communication to me in any medium noted above and have not received a response, a technical glitch has occurred. Either your communication did not get through, or my response did not reach you. If you suspect that's the case, use one of the alternative methods to send me a "Hey, Joey, I sent you a note through email (or social media platform, etc). Did you get it?" message, and we'll make sure we sort it out. I will never intentionally ignore my readers!
HAVING PROBLEMS GETTING MY NEWSLETTER PAST YOUR SPAM FILTER? - Whenever I issue a newsletter, I will post about it on the social media platforms mentioned above, to ensure it reaches the widest number of people possible. So if you're following me on any of them, you'll get a heads up. Or you can put https://storywitch.com/newsletter/?latest as one of your Favorite links. You can click on it anytime to see if a new newsletter has been released. I try to get a new issue out during the first 7 days of every month.
HELP ME WITH FOLLOWS/REVIEWS
NEVER an obligation, but when you follow or review me on Bookbub, Amazon or both, it increases my books' visibility and marketing options on those sites. And in return, you get a heads up about releases and sales!
Thank you so much for your support of my work!
