Feature of Sylvia Hubbard on Shifted Sheets

There was absolutely nothing Madison wanted more than to be savored, enjoyed, and loved for every inch of her true self—inside and outside. Hungry with an insatiable desire for passion and the ability to give herself fully to another, she discovers a handsome stranger, who can fulfill her every wish and she is willing to do anything possible to gain his adoration, but there's a catch.

As the two grow closer together she discovers hidden jewels and hellish facets to herself and life that she never experienced before. Highly intelligent though lacking confidence, Madison's pain is deeply experienced and brought to the surface as this stranger discovers the entirety of her—insecurities and all.

Yet just as her dreams are finally beginning to come true, someone steals her life's research? Was it her best friend? Her father? The assistant? Or the stranger she thought she could trust? Will she survive this deception or lose herself and everything she has worked for?

Find the answers wrapped around suspense, drama, and erotic romance in Beautiful, Author Sylvia Hubbard's 40th Novel.

Poets & Writers Hiring Literary Outreach Coordinator in Detroit @poetswritersinc

We're looking for a Literary Outreach Coordinator to work with us in Detroit. This is part of an initiative to expand our core programs to better serve writers coast to coast, especially writers of color and other historically marginalized groups. Thanks to a grant from the Hearst Foundations, we will pilot the project in Detroit, Houston, and New Orleans. (Read our press release here.)

Literary Outreach Coordinators will be equal parts community organizers and local correspondents, responsible for increasing awareness of Poets & Writers' tools and resources for writers with a special focus on the availability of grants through our Readings & Workshops Program. With extensive support from Poets & Writers, Outreach Coordinators will have a unique opportunity to strengthen the literary community and help writers in their city.

The ideal candidate is a writer engaged with their city's literary community, eager to talk with and learn about writers from various backgrounds, working in various genres, throughout the city. They should be passionate about helping other writers, a good organizer with an entrepreneurial spirit, and familiar with Poets & Writers.

Outreach Coordinators should anticipate committing an average of seven to ten hours per week, and will be paid a stipend of $500 per month. Work will begin in February 2019 and end in December 2020. There will be an in-person training in New York City in late February or early March; travel expenses will be covered.
