Things are happening again in IFWG
Publishing.
Firstly, on the Australian imprint front, Kings of Under-Castle (Michael B Fletcher)
is only days away from print publishing, followed soon after by Paper Magic (Jeffery Doherty) and Brumbies in the Mist (Paula Boer and
illustrator, Rowena Evans) - both in print and ebook formats. Moving forward,
we will also be publishing The Adventures
of Teddy and Karl (Rolf Svensen, illustrated by Jeffery Doherty) and Sealskin Coast (Rowena Evans). A busy
period ahead for us down-under.
In the US we will very shortly be publishing
Unlikely Hero in print format
(Geraldine Fitzsimmons) and soon after M F Burbaugh's The Bounty Hunter in print format. While we have a long list of
titles to catch up to after these two, we are expecting to work with Jennifer
Resetar's Whirlwind series (including
a name change), Ian Douglas' juvenile work, The
Infinity Trap, and Jesse McMinn's Loria.
There are others, and we'll see how this goes, but some patience is still
required from our authors.
In the short fiction camp we are currently
running the 2013 Story Quest Short Story Contest, and many submissions are
coming in - this will be a great year, and we are fortunate to have the
excellent Tonia Brown as guest judge (horror, weird western, steampunk author).
We are expecting to publish the 'best of' SQ Mag 2012 very soon, probably
through the Australian imprint.
SQ
Mag is growing in readership in leaps and bounds,
and is getting a reputation for excellence - we are grateful for editor Sophie
Yorkston's wonderful leadership.
Yes, things are happening.
