News from the blogging trail

DSC00372My favorite exercise isn’t jogging—it’s blogging. As a writer and editor, I tend to have several projects open on my desk at once, and I get intensely involved in each of them—until it’s time for a breather. I almost always need to set my work aside for a day or so and come back into it with fresh eyes before I will declare a project done.

For me, blogging is fun. It’s my snack between meals.

Recently I posted a comment to a blog called agingbodies.com, and the publisher asked me to be a guest blogger once a month. So in my spare time, I am writing short personal essays on aging. Read my agingbodies.com column here, and please share your comments.

Three cheers for a client’s first novel, released today!

Image

When you read Therese Pautz’s debut novel, Rain and Revelation, you’ll understand why we’re bursting with pride at having worked with this author. It’s a complex tale of shocking discoveries of the most life-altering sort—a host of family secrets that change everything when brought into the light of day.

Here’s the cover blurb:

On the rugged, rain and windswept coast of Ireland, twenty-year old Eliza Conroy’s predictable life is shattered when she returns home to find her mother bathing in her own blood. Eliza sets out to understand the events leading up to that fateful day and discovers that she has been deceived her entire life by those she loves and trusts the most. What she uncovers threatens to destroy her family and tight knit community and Eliza is forced to choose between the cost of speaking the truth and remaining silent.

Ms. Pautz already is working on her second novel. Join her fan club now by ordering your copy of Rain and Revelation today!

New project hot off the press!

Our latest project

Editing is fun for me, and it’s joy-to-the-max when I’m picking through the work of established authors and newfound talent. The first print anthology of Sol: English Writing in Mexico, a literary magazine, was just such a project.

Featuring the work of 56 well-known and emerging writers from around the world (including yours truly!), Sol English Writing in Mexico: A Literary Magazine (Volume 1) is now available from Amazon.com (paperback, 294 pages, $16).

The anthology contains prize-winning poetry, fiction, and literary nonfiction focused on, but not limited to, English writing in Mexico. Authors include Tony Cohan, Christopher Cook, Molly Fisk, James Cervantes, John Yohe, Judyth Hill and many more outstanding writers.

All profits from sales of this book go to scholarships for at-risk Mexican children through the San Miguel de Allende chapter of International PEN in collaboration with the literary magazine “Sol: English Writing in Mexico.”
