Okay, here's the deal... I've been trying to figure out a way to get a larger market for those books e-publishers won't take, either because they're too raunchy or too taboo (for epubs, not Lit)... like my Babysitting the Baumgartners series, Naughty Bits, etc...
Fictionwise is a great option, but they don't take individual, unpublished titles, and if you register as a "publisher" they want you to have at least three separate authors.
So here's what I thought... why not partner up with some folks on Lit who have booklength work they'd like to sell that e-pubs have rejected because of their publishing requirements?
Essentially this would be a partnership of authors. As head of the "publishing group" I wouldn't take any extra royalties, etc. That would all go to you. Fictionwise pays you 50% return on sales, and you'd get all of it.
I need two interested authors. Of course, I'll take more. Why not? The more the merrier!

eXcessica authors are as varied as their fiction—some are well-established, award-winning and bestselling writers, and some are exciting new fledgling talents. There are authors here going under different pen names whose work has been published with some of the largest e-and-print publishers in the business who have chosen to publish with eXcessica because of the freedom of expression we afford them. Together, we are a partnership of writers bringing you the best in erotica, from the sweet to the forbidden…
If you are an author interested in publishing with eXcessica, you need to know that eXcessica is something entirely new. We are not a traditional e-publisher, instead we are a collaborative formed to remove the middleman and bring the reader some of the best in truly hot erotica.
eXcessica publishes everything from sweet to scorching, including the taboo stuff other e-publishers won't touch. eXcessica authors cross the spectrum from award-winning professionals to fresh, new voices. Some are here because they want complete control over their work. Others are here because they want a larger cut of their sales proceeds. Still others, because their material is considered too edgy for traditional e-publishers.
By having each author take responsibility for their own editing and cover art, eXcessica is able to make its overhead expenses negligible. eXcessica authors know that sloppy work reflects poorly on us all and that success hinges on everyone doing their very best. (Note: eXcessica will not release anything that hasn’t undergone extensive peer editing, so readers can be ensured of work quality!)
