A *Real* Quote: Butt Cans?

That’s his butt can!”

Over the Initial Shock (Sort Of)
To follow up the last most excellent post, Bill and Ted, dude, I suppose it would make sense for me to go into more detail about the publisher that just signed me for three years as a published author….
(I still get chills saying that…. PUBLISHED AUTHOR)
Eirelander Publishing, based out of Maryland, is a smaller publishing press dedicated to preserving the environment, essentially making them an e-publisher. All the correspondence–and I mean all their correspondence–is done using the internet. There are no paper submissions, no paper rejection letters, no paper contracts. The trees are safe with Eirelander. The same goes for their format of publication. They initially put out their books in e-book format, which as you might guess from the news we hear throughout the literary world and literary agents galore is slowly gaining in popularity. They will, however, of course put out standard print after a number of sales of a debut, which is a phenomenal act of faith on their part given their moral stance on the environment.
Eirelander Publishing has two divisions–’Mainstream’ and ‘Heat’. They publish erotica, which falls under ‘Heat’, as well as the other genres–fantasy, horror, thriller, action, etc etc.–falling under ‘Mainstream’. The only genre they do not handle is nonfiction.
Another update: THE CAIN LETTERS will be released in December, so keep an eye out, readers!
Alexandra Glade and the Berith Lochem, the God-fearing vampire hunters of this age and the future, will be preying on you soon. Prepare yourselves….
