Big news on the submission front, we've reshaped our goals as a publisher and are now looking for the following types of novels (directly from our website):

"We are primarily looking for fiction and non-fiction works that speak to the American Experience. Examples of the types of novels we're looking for are the pulp fiction mysteries in the tradition of Marlowe, the Old West dime store novels and the sweeping sagas of Michener."

So have you written the great American novel? Then why haven't you submitted it yet?

Meanwhile, we've chosen our second book to publish and plan on making the announcement within the next week. It's completely different from "Two Redheads & A Dead Blonde" but we think you'll like it, especially if you enjoy historical fiction.

Speaking of "2 Reds," the trade paperback should be for sale at Amazon.com within the next thirty days. These are exciting times here at Sons of Liberty Publishing!

Sons of Liberty Publishing is going traditional

Traditional publishing that is!

We're happy to announce that our plans to move into traditional publishing have been greatly expedited. Originally scheduled for 2010, "Two Redheads & A Dead Blonde" will now be available though Amazon.com as a trade paperback very soon. We're waiting for the proof from the publisher and if all is correct, the printer will be given the green light and it'll be for sale. Suggested retail price will be $15.99.

We're also going to do a book signing or two in the fall with Lloyd Corricelli somewhere in New England. More to come on that.

In addition, we've opened up our submission guidelines to accept authors outside New England. That should allow us to garner a wider variety of submissions and improve the overall works we publish.

Keep watching this blog space for more announcements, including the next book from Sons of Liberty Publishing.
