Avon Kicks Off 75th Anniversary With Diamond Celebration

A leading voice in romance, Avon, announced this week a blow out celebration for their 75th anniversary.

The HarperCollins imprint that brought readers Kathleen Woodiwiss, Loretta Chase, and Eloisa James wants to honor the milestone with a year-long party for their readers. Not only will Avon discount key-titles from their backlist, they will also host a series of popular KissCon reader events and a pair of gala signings at Romantic Times Book Lovers Convention and the Romance Writers of America National Convention.

“Avon has always represented the ‘Diamond Standard’ of romance, so we are especially thrilled to celebrate our 75^th anniversary,” says Liate Stehlik, Senior Vice President, Publisher of William Morrow and Avon Books. “From publishing such trailblazers as Kathleen E. Woodiwiss’s THE FLAME AND THE FLOWER in 1972 to nurturing the careers of our authors, we’re proud of all that we have accomplished in this ever-changing industry. And we can’t wait to see where our authors and readers will bring us in the years to come.”
