Up-to-date information about forthcoming books, books in print, books out of print, books that are in the process of coming back into print, and how to order. "Mid-list" writers have a complicated bibliography with books often going out of print. (I do have a few copies of some books that I am willing to sell at author rate plus mail costs.) Foreign translations and anthologies excluded.

ReplyDeleteHi Gary--
ReplyDeleteMust pop by and see what you are doing now...
Marly the travelin' woman,
ReplyDeleteIf you must know -- and it may bore the artistes amongst us (as it sometimes does even me) -- I have just quietly announced my first independent technical book.
I've got an editor hired, a book designer hired (not artsy - but pragmatic - using Framemaker) and pushing Createspace to its limits.
I'll be moving into more intense marketing in the coming weeks to my target audience and hopefully have this puppy out by mid-August.

In addition I owe you some work for house of words, but I am trying to also get some consulting gigs to pay the bills so the bricks I owe to this house are still queued behind the kiln waiting to be fired.
Oh, and the company selling the domain www.houseofwords.com wanted WAY too much so I didn't buy it.
Gary
Worry not! "The House of Words" is never done... It will still be here.
ReplyDeleteHey, the book ad looks good, and I even can grasp what it is about.
The artists definitely need to think about practical things. Especially after a day in the cellar...
Glad you didn't buy it! Our heads are full of words that can go together in interesting ways, for free...
ReplyDeleteYou've got some gorgeous covers (and the insides are pretty wonderful too!), but my favourites are Ingledove and Val/Orsen.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the new 'uns too!
Thanks, Clare! Yes, those are beauteous covers/jackets, and Renato Alarcao also did a nice cover for the "Raven Mocker" paperback edition to match the one you like for "Ingledove." I have the originals for the Clive Hicks-Jenkins acrylic for "Val/Orson" and the Steve Cieslawski oil for the "Raven Mocker," and they both give me a lot of joy.
