A week or so ago, the American Fork Arts Council Press closed its doors forever. This was a sad day for me and I'm sure, for all those who worked with or who were published by the Press.
I won't go into details but the tragedy is that it shouldn't have happened. Sadly, many people will be affected by this decision since it means no more writing conferences, classes at American Fork's old city hall, or hard cover books from the Press.The decision wasn't mine to make but I understand why it happened and how... Let's just leave it at that.
The good news--as always there is a silver lining of sorts-- is that Summer will live again. This next book, titled NYC: Monopoly on Murder, if not traditionally published by another publisher, will be released as an ebook and probably sooner than the original October launch date.
And lest all you e'reader-less readers out there get depressed, Createspace (a strange side business created because of electronic readers) will allow the consumer to buy hard copy paperbacks for less than the original price of my other books. How cool is that?
So, yes, fans. Summer will return stronger than ever, happier than ever and cheaper than ever.
See, I told you there was silver at the bottom of the bad news.
