I’d meant to have my next full-length novel published over a month ago, but, well … it’s grown into a monster. It must be stopped — or at least contained. Unfortunately, that process will take more time. That’s the bad news.
The good news is that there is a new story from me that will actually be published soon! Miracle of miracles, right?

Hello Everyone,
Skye Warren put on yet another great Valentine’s Day blog hop! There was wonderful participation, and I saw quite a few new authors and readers. Oh, and I added yet more to my Everest-sized TBR list.
I can’t help it, dammit. :::facepalm:::
Okay, enough about that. I anticipate the winners for the grand prizes will be announced by Skye shortly, but in the meantime I’ll announce the winners of my own drawing here at TEL. The winners (selected at random at numbergenerator.org) are listed below, and I’ll be contacting them by e-mail shortly:
Mary
Corinne
Maggie
Thanks to everyone for reading and commenting. I loved the answers, and was very happily surprised at the tiny number of people who refused to answer! Hope to see you all here again next year:)
Trent
Welcome Valentines Day Gift Hoppers!
I must confess to being a member of an endangered species — a dude who actually likes Valentine’s Day. The world needs more love, and sex, and caring, and anything that generates more of it — if even for one day — is a great thing in my book:)
I’ve got several erotic romance books slated for publication this year. I’ll be finishing up the epic Her Troika, a menage featuring two strict Doms, a strong, capable heroine, and plenty of both total power exchange and ponyplay. It’s not for the faint of heart, but I think you’ll enjoy it. After that, I’ll have another full length D/s and Domestic Discipline flavored novel (working title: The Change), that explores the complications and joys of balancing kink and pregnancy. Look for that one toward the end of March:) I have a few other surprises for later this year that I’m really excited about, but I’ll keep my lips zipped about them until the scheduling gets finalized. If you’d like to be notified when these various projects are published, signing up for my new release alerts mailing list is the best way to go.
Enough about that though, lets get to hopping! Comments on this blog post will be entered into a drawing to win the main blog hop prize, a Kindle Paperwhite, and a New Adult romance book bundle from some GREAT writers. Additionally, comments on this blog post will be entered into a drawing for an electronic copy of any one Trent Evans book. Since this hop is so large, I’ve increased the number of winners from one to three.
Now, on to the fun part! I know you have a LOT of sites to visit, so I’ll keep my questions short and sweet. Since I love (and write) kink, I thought I’d ask a few “either/or” questions for this hop. Now, I know some of you are shy, or for whatever reason won’t want to answer. If that’s the case, you can just enter in “no comment”, and set our depraved imaginations awhirl about what you might be “hiding” — I kid:)
Here are the questions:
1. Ropes or Chains?
2. Hand or Paddle?
3. Alpha Male or “Gentle” Dom?
When you’re done, check out the GIGANTOR list of other blogs in this hop. Have fun and Happy Valentine’s Day!
Best,
Trent Evans
Hello everyone,
The hop was a big success (thanks Skye!!), and there were a lot of great comments. Thank you! Since I hate to pick a winner, I’ve decided that all the commenters on the Wet & Wild post have won:)
So, this weekend all of those commenters will be getting an e-mail from me asking which book they’d like and in what electronic format. Check your spam filters:)
There is no catch, no pitch, no nothing. Just my thanks to you for participating in the hop! Hopefully a few of you were like me and saw their to-be-read piles explode in size ::sigh::
Thanks again everyone, and we’ll see you here next year!
Best,
Trent
I love this time of year, and not just because of this hop (though I’ve got to admit this hop is rad). This is the time of possibilities, of anticipation, of the excitement of what’s to come.
Following along with that theme of possibilities, a question came to me as I perused the rather impressive list of names involved in this year’s hop: where are the dudes?
Now, I know that few men seem to write in the genres represented on the list for this hop, but I know for a fact that I’m not the only male erotica and erotic romance author out there. Are male authors of erotica or erotic romance truly that rare?
I note this not to be self-serving, but rather to pose a few follow-up questions to you:
— Would you consider purchasing and reading erotica written by a male author?
— What about erotic romance?
— Do you feel as if male authors too often don’t get things “quite right”? Be honest — I can take it!
Now on to the good stuff;)
This hop is loaded up this year (check out the prizes shown below):
But there’s more:) …
Any live person (bots, you don’t count) who leaves a comment on this post, along with their e-mail address — which is needed strictly for notification of winners — will be entered into a drawing for an electronic copy of any one Trent Evans book.
Now, although I said only one book, sometimes I slip up and give away a book to more than one person — accidents do happen:) — so make sure to get your entries in!
Please be sure to hit all the other stops on the hop too (see the list below). There is a wealth of talent on this list, and you are sure to find enough great new books to double the height of Mount To-Be-Read 🙂
Happy Reading and thanks for visiting!
Best,
Trent

Welcome to the Naughty New Years Bloghop!
Alas, my own New Years was quite mundane. Aside from neighbors who decided to scream like banshees into the cold night for an hour or so, and a barrage of fireworks resembling the Second Battle of Fallujah, New Years was very quiet. Okay, I guess that means it wasn’t particularly quiet after all 🙂
If only the lives of smut-slingers were always as exciting as our books! Sigh.
For me, 2013 looks to be overflowing with naughty, smutty— however you want to describe it. There will be the beginning of a new erotic romance BDSM menage series, a sequel or two, and even a special project! I hope to have lots more of what readers have come to expect in Trent Evans stories. Stay tuned:)
I’ve seen quite a few bloghops, but I can’t recall seeing any as large as this one is — over 200 writers and websites. That means if you’re intrepid, and visit (and comment at) every site involved with this bloghop, you can enter for the grand prizes over 200 times! Even better, you will discover a TON of original, talented writers in the erotica and erotic romance genres.
Comment below to be eligible to win an electronic copy (in your choice of format) of any one Trent Evans book. You’ll also automatically be entered to win one of two grand prizes:
Be sure to visit other stops on this hop (there are a lot of great writers represented here). The complete list of participants can be found here.
Until next time!
Best,
Trent
