The Great American Novel is now available!

            Victor West, of Pacific Literary Services, wrote, “Of all the hundreds of manuscripts I have read over the years, I can truthfully say that I have not seen ‘The Great American Novel’ until now.” Mr. West was referring to Flint Whitlock’s Internal Conflicts, a heartbreaking, hilarious, and powerful story about Peter Luton, a young Army officer searching for sex, love, manhood, and the meaning of life during the Vietnam era. Congratulations, Flint, on the culmination of your multi-decade work of art.
            Del Staecker’s The Lady Gangster has recently received some nice reviews. Mason B. Webb gives it a “two thumbs up” in a sneak preview of the September issue of WWII History, noting that Gangster offers “revealing perspectives of life aboard wartime attack transports.”  Colonel Gordon W. Keiser, U.S. Marine Corps (Retired) writes in the May issue of the U.S. Naval Institute’s magazine: “Written in an atypical yet appealing style, The Lady Gangster is a spirited tale….”
            Jim Zervanos is keeping busy in both Philadelphia, which he now calls home, and Lancaster, where he grew up. In a recent review in the Lancaster News, reviewer Jo-Anne Greene states that there is “Lots to ‘LOVE’ in Jim Zervanos’ debut novel about a Greek American family.” Jim will be at Dogstar Books in Lancaster on June 12, then back at the Barnes & Noble in Lancaster on June 20, before jetting off to the Greek-American Film Festival in Los Angeles, where Love Park is a sponsor.
            Many works-in-progress are keeping us busy as summer finally begins. Our next release will be Dan Meador’s Cahaba, a combination history and memoir of Alabama’s first state capital and the location of Dan’s ancestral home. Following Cahaba will be Olaf Danielson’s third thriller in his Defender of the Earth Series, The Ice Trolls, with the manuscript for the fourth book in the series nearing completion. A collection of stories about icons in aviation by first-time author Di Freeze is developing nicely as is Del Staecker’s Chocolate Soup, the third mystery in his Ledge Trabue series. Soon we will begin working on the story of a Buchenwald prison camp commandant and his wife, the first of three books in Flint Whitlock’s World War II Buchenwald series.
            Our writers are the best.  Write on!!!
