Novella Book Deal Announced

Hollow Tongue by Eden Royce

Hollow Tongue is one creepy story that we think readers are going to love:

After a major accident leaves her in a dire financial situation, Maxine Forrest returns to live in her childhood home. The empty husk holds only the memories of her father’s abuse and her mother’s reticence to leave him: her parents are nowhere to be found. The cocoon of her past remains unchanged, yet wrapped in the ghostly remnants of her mother’s whispered insistence that things could change. Escaping the sins of her parents should be easy enough for Max, but those sins are intrinsic to her genetic make-up, so escape is impossible—succumbing, and metamorphosis, are inevitable. Read the full announcement.

Book Deal Announced

Let Me Tell You a Story by Tim Waggoner

Our non-fiction imprint, Guide Dog Books, has signed a new book from Tim Waggoner in the award-winning Writing in the Dark series! This series has a lot of momentum right now so we're excited to add to it.

In Tell Me a Story Waggoner presents stories from his own publishing career and uses them to illustrate techniques and point out ways to improve. “In both Writing in the Dark and Writing in the Dark: The Workbook, I included a short story of mine and critiqued it based on the principles outlined in those books. Readers responded well to this feature, so I decided to focus a new book on critiquing stories drawn from throughout my career, discussing what worked, what didn’t, and what I might do differently if I had the chance to rewrite the stories. I hope readers will find Let Me Tell You a Story to be as interesting – and most importantly as useful – as its predecessors.” Read the full announcement.
