Coliloquy (www.coliloquy.com), a publisher of active and interactive fiction, recently launched four adult and young adult romance series from award-winning authors and screenwriters. Coliloquy represents the next generation of digital publishing, taking advantage of new technology to reinvent the way authors and their audiences interact with reading and narrative. Coliloquy’s new publishing format enables multiple story lines, serials and episodic story-telling, personalized content, in-book engagement mechanics and the delivery of prompts and special or exclusive extras to create a more fluid and immersive story-telling experience.
By delivering titles as active content applications, rather than static publishing files, Coliloquy enables new kinds of engagement made possible by advances in electronic book distribution. Multiple “what if” story lines let authors and readers explore different permutations of character relationships. TV-like episodes can grow and change, based on reader choices, voting, and feedback. Fans can reread a key scene from a different character’s point-of-view or unlock new content.
Coliloquy’s underlying platform also introduces a new type of in-book feedback for authors. In combination with a serial format, this approach de-risks the writing process and allows authors to test and refine new ideas based on insights from their readers.

Keira's favorite type of heroes are blind, scarred, and tortured... yes, she understands those should be separate, but all 3 at once is also nice! She enjoys historical romances best and adores audio books because great narrators turn books into auditory/mental movies (and she loves her romantic dramas like Pride and Prejudice/North and South!)

These titles look good! I can see I’ll be spending some money.
Getting Dumped sounds like a good read!
It sounds like an interesting way to read new books and authors. I look forward to seeing what other books they will be publishing. Can’t wait to read Tawna’s book.

I really think “Dead Letter Office” sounds like a very interesting book. I love suspense/thrillers and this books with the letters written so long in the past, but about crimes occurring in the present day sounds like a great story.
Thanks for the fantastic giveaway! I’m really excited about tawna Fenske’s book. I loved her previous book. I’m kinda bummed that I can’t get it for my Kindle Fire.
It’s a fun way to read! And you can dictate the turn of events.
Great titles!
Great Blog post! Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
Thank you for this awesome giveaway!!!
I think Arcania sounds very interesting. I’d definitely read it.
I would like to win a new kindle since my old one is starting to wear out. Plus, these books are right up my alley. A perfect mixture of paranormal, humor and sleuthiness. Please choose me. A life with a broken kindle is like a life without a refrigerator…unlivable!!!

Witch’s Brew sounds like it would be my favorite, but Arcania sounds really good too.
Wow! Who wouldn’t love a kindle! I really like this new idea of publishing and want to give it a try!
Witch’s Brew
I think they all sound interesting by Getting Dumped is eye catching and the concept sounds really funny.
Dead Letter Office and Arcania would be the first ones I read!
Kira’s “Dead Letter Office” interests me the most. I do love gothic stories.
Getting Dumped sounds interesting to me.
I am interested in both Witches Brew and Arcania!
I really want to read Witch’s Brew!
I would love to read Witches Brew as this sounds like a story that will pull you in and not let you go. Having that ability and not knowing how to control it is scary.
Thanks for the opportunity to enter giveaway.
Whether you’re getting dumped or being the dumpee, break ups can be like rollercoasters. Although sometimes they can land you in a better place than where you originally started.
Sounds very cool. The books sound interesting and the titles are nice. Thanks for the giveaway opportunity.
And as for the one title that interests me the most I’d have to say “Witche’s Brew.’
Getting Dumped interests me the most.
Arcania Trial by Fire looks good.
Arcania, Trial by Fire by Liz Maverick looks good.
