As always, we're busy as hell here with all of the different projects going on. Our next book release is the long awaited sort of...kind of true story of the legendary Boston band The Fools written by their frontman Mike Girard. The Fools are best known for their songs 'Psycho Chicken,' 'Life Sucks...Then You Die,' 'World Dance Party' and "Doo Wah Diddy' amongst others.
So here it is, the very first place the cover will be seen in public...
So what do you think? The cover is meant to evoke the lunacy of the band, along with the classic Japanese monster movies and the old style EC Comics cover. If you look closely, in the background you'll see a number of Mike's classic characters too. How many can you name?So when will the book be available you ask? The official release date is November, 27 2010 at The Fools' show scheduled at the Blue Ocean Performance Hall in Salisbury, MA. After that, Mike will be doing some in-store signings at local stores...more info to come on that one. We'll also be offering a very limited edition lithograph of the cover signed by Mike and artist Don Mousseau at the book release show. How cool would that look signed and framed on your wall?
Meanwhile, while you wait for Mike's book, how about a good mystery? Lloyd L. Corricelli's second Ronan Marino no
vel is out. It's called Chasing Curves: A Ronan Marino Mystery and in this one, Ronan tries to clear a UMass-Lowell baseball player accused of murdering his prospective agent's secretary.You can purchase it at Amazon, the downtown Lowell Barnes & Noble or it can be special ordered at most other bookstores. If you like your detectives hardboiled and stories full of sex, violence and humor, you're going to love Ronan.
Well, that's all for now. Next month we'll have more news on Psycho Chicken & Other Foolish Tales as well as news on other soon to be published books.
