pameladeanDavid and I have made up Blaisdell Press to reissue some of my backlist and ultimately publish Going North. We are beginning with my 1998 novel Juniper, Gentian, and Rosemary, which got caught in the collapse of the mass-market distribution system and sold so badly that when Firebird bought up the rest of my backlist, buying this unfortunate book was not something they wanted to undertake.
It is an odd book but I love it a lot. It has astronomy and sisters and true friends and poetry and many female characters and a cat and books and quotations and success and failure and Shakespeare. I don't suppose that last part surprises anybody.
It will be available in a POD trade paperback from CreateSpace, as a Kindle book from Amazon, and as an e-book from Smashwords.
Things are supposed to all go live on March 1, but it looks like you can do pre-orders now. Here's the link:

David will be doing some blog posts about the process of scanning the text and designing the cover and interior, and I'll link to those when they go up.
I am so excited that any attempt at expressing myself other than a level recitation of the facts makes me incoherent, so I'll stop now.
If LJ will permit, here's an image of the cover:

Date: 2016-02-22 01:36 am (UTC)I have to add back about 20,000 words, which I hope will already have been written but it's hard to say; and I have to do something about one of the opening chapters, because it makes no sense to people who haven't read the Secret Country books.

Thank you for the update!
