some excellent news
Feb. 17th, 2010 03:35 pmI'm delighted that a friend of mine, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
theficklepickle, is launching a 'semi-pro' e-publishing venture called Manifold Press. You can find them on LJ at manifold_press, and they hope to launch a website soon. They are focussing on male-male fiction. Hurrah! XD
This is wondrous news fortheficklepickle, of course, but I am even more delighted for my own sake - as we are currently talking about Manifold Press publishing a novel of mine titled The Definitive Albert J Sterne. The pitch is: 'a gay Silence of the Lambs'. The main characters are Albert Sterne, an FBI forensics expert, a special agent named Fletcher Ash, and a serial killer named John Garrett. It's set in the early 80s, so it has a kind of period charm compared to hi-tech shows like CSI!
Anyway, I am hoping that Manifold Press might publish it later this year. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
(And, no, alas - I still haven't heard back from the agent who expressed interest in my Keats novel... So it's doubly nice to make some 'semi-pro' progress in another direction.)
