My first novel Vengeance is being reissued, this time by Swimming Kangaroo Books, who have already published Lightning Days and The Silk Palace.
Most writers will have a special place in their hearts for their first book. So it is with me and my SF novel Vengeance. It was first published in 2001 in electronic format, but the company concerned never really got off the ground, and it quickly vanished without trace.
Two years later a small press contacted me and asked if they could publish it; they collpased before it even made it to press, but at least I got to keep the token advance.
By that time I'd become convinced it was jinxed and put it out via lulu, but while I sold a few copies, it was at about this time that I sold Lightning Days to Swimming Kangraoo, and knew that this was a bigger opportunity, so poor old Vengeance got a little neglected.
Now it has its chance with a proper publisher in all formats.
So...you are cordially invited to a launch party for it on Saturday the 28th June from11am CST for 1 hour.
The Launch Party will take place at the SK Chat Room:
You don’t have to register to chat, just type your name in the field and come on in.
Larianne Wills and I will each chat and answer questions about our books. We'll be giving away copies of books given away at various intervals so people have plenty of opportunities to win prizes -- do turn up!
Ciao Ciao
