Sun-Kissed Blog Tour 6/15-6/28

Meryton Press’s first short story anthology is due out for publication in early June, with its blog tour set for June 15-28, 2015. Sun-Kissed: Effusions of Summer brings together the talents of Meryton Press’s award-winning and favorite authors together with emerging talent. Four new authors earned a spot in this collection through our Summer Lovin’ Short Story Contest held earlier this year.

Another short story contest will be held by Meryton Press with a winter theme. It will be open for entries in June, so sharpen your pens, stretch your typing fingers and start writing now to get your stories entered into the winter anthology. You may see your name join these in future.

“So each had a private little sun for her soul to bask in…” Thomas Hardy

If you desire a little heat, a summer flirtation, or an escape to bask in your own private sun…this whimsical collection of original short stories is inspired by all things summer.

Contemporary and Regency alike, each romance was dreamt as a perfect summer refreshment to bring a smile to your own sun-kissed face.
