Adrienne Jone's newest novel, Brine, is now available for order! Brine comes in two editions -- trade paperback and a limited print run (100 copies ONLY) signed by the author.
Meet Elliot, respected Cape Cod painter. Unbeknownst to his admirers, Elliot's got some demons in his past. When he tries to paint them out of his system, his plan backfires. Now Elliot's got some demons in his present and future as well.
Spawned by a power of both mind and matter, Elliot's demons are very real, very weird, and very, very pissed off.
The people in Elliot's life called him 'closed off.' So he looked inside himself. Deep inside. What he found, he brought to the surface. Now its violent manifestations are holding him hostage at his beachside cabin. Worst of all, they know how to sing and dance.
Or more accurately, a chat. Enjoy the shameless plugging, the tomfoolery and virtual mugging for the camera as AJ and I talk about her impending book, Brine, soon to be released in hardbound and paperback editions, from CGP.
Those who preorder the hardcover edition will also qualify for a free drawing in which the prizes are...taken from the author's demented imagination. The following information has been stolen directly from her blog:
After many delays of organizational sorts, not least of which included some issues with printing, Tales of Moreauvia #1 will finally be shipping! (Whew!)
Thanks to all for your incredible patience, and we hope you'll be pleased with the end result. Orders will be going out Wednesday May 14, and will be arriving as fast as the mailman can get them to you.
For more information and to order further (more timely) issues, check the ToM website.
2008 is going to be a big year for CGP -- besides the Tales of Moreauvia magazine debut, we also have three (maybe four!) fantastic new titles coming. To celebrate, we're going to be taking orders early, and offering a special preorder promotion -- free shipping to the US and Canada, and discounted shipping to the UK and Europe. We will also be running some contests for those who preorder Brine and Ace Hawkins -- details soon.
So when you place your order for any or all of the following titles, and we'll include shipping charges for your order to anywhere in the US or Canada (this is basic postage, if you would like express shipping, please contact us), and discounted shipping to Europe. Preorder deadlines are listed by title -- we'll have the order forms up soon on the book pages.
It was about that time again -- Spring Cleaning a year or so overdue. Hope you like the look of the new site, and feel free to leave any comments in the new forum. One of the goals of the new site is to streamline the news and book information and cut down on the clutter. That said, we still want to be a central resource for book news and information, and so we have maintained our newsfeeds from the movers and shakers in the publishing world -- checkout the newsfeeds from NYT, NPR, and Diverse Books.
As noted, we are sporting a new forum, so feel free to leave comments for your favourite CGP/LP authors, aim questions and feedback toward them, make them feel loved. Also, we are pleased to announce the publication of five new titles this year, and are including information for preodering. Our blog will cover news and notes about our authors' news in other realms, like Gary Wolf's new book from TOR, Space Vulture, and Adrienne Jones' Gypsies Stole My Tequila from Bedlam Press.
Check the bottom of the page here for our own newsfeeds to add to your reader. Whenever we update the news, publication schedule or post a link to a new review, you'll be the first to know. There is also a newsfeed from the forum. Finally, note the addition of various social bookmarking tags which will appear in the left column -- please digg, facebook, or del.icio.us us, and help us keep everyone in the loop.
Again, thanks for popping by, browse the shelves and feel free to order a book or two, or just share your morning with us and check the news.
best,
Pete, alpha weasel and chief bottle-washer, CGP/LP.
