Comment on Review of “Loose Ends” by Jay Wilburn by Proud and in Paperback | Jay Wilburn

[...] Reviews have started to come in for the book and so far so good. It is still a leap of faith on Robert’s part to include my novel in a paperback campaign as he works to build Hazardous Press into a publishing house of note in the field of speculative fiction, horror, sci fi, and fantasy. When he approached me with the idea and then the contract, I signed with confidence. I signed more out of confidence in the company and the man than in the standard language of the pdf contract. I have been treated with great respect and support through this entire process even though I have no strong history in publishing as yet to earn that confidence. In all, I have about 30 published works of various sizes in the full range of the middle level publishing world’s various formats. (Not all the works are on this serach link and not all of these are mine. I didn’t work with Waylan Jennings, for instance, but it would be awesome if I did!) There are horror stories out there about dishonest dealings with publishers in the Internet age. I have only been treated well by everyone that has taken on my work even though I had no background on most of them before submitting. I try to give back to these publishers through my promotion, recommendations, and endorsement. I happily submit to their charity anthologies for that reason as much as any other. This time of e-book infinity and online publishing glut may be a new golden age of writing for the horror fiction world specifically and speculative fiction more broadly. Good people with day jobs are sacraficing time and savings to work in the dark night as editors and publishers. These folks conduct themselves with missionary like fervor and compassion with the promise of great reward hoped for as they toil for love in the present. How can I allow myself to disappoint people like this? [...]

Thanks Bob! The editing is completed and so the formatting needs to be done. I know it isn’t due out until 2013, but don’t have a specific release date. I am hoping for early 2013, as the two other books in the trilogy will hopefully follow in the same year.

I like the artwork a lot. Although I haven’t read your books (yet) what I like about it is that the skull with the head wound, as well as the weapons behind it, elude to action, without having to paint the viewer a picture (so to speak!) It hints at what the reader is about to experience without, without resorting to a cliche to hit them over the head with! So when will this edition be ready for order?
