Solitaire will be republished by Small Beer Press in January 2011.
Please go visit the marvelous bookpage they have set up: you will find this cover, the new author photo by the incredible Jennifer Durham, all kinds of nice quotes, and an opportunity to preorder the book either in printed version or in DRM-free PDF download.
You can also find Solitaire at Amazon.com, B&N.com or your favorite independent bookstore.
I’m so excited about this. I can’t imagine a better home for Solitaire than Small Beer Press, who value stories, are patient and kind to writers, love books and sell the hell out of them to anyone who will sit still. I am fortunate indeed to be with them (bows in the direction of Massachusetts). And I hope you’ll be excited for me too; you can show the love by preordering and making my publisher feel like he didn’t get a pig in a poke (smile).
If you’d like to support the relaunch of Solitaire and have ideas for events, marketing, reviewing, interviews, advertising, viral videos or anything else, please let Small Beer Press hear about them (info at smallbeerpress.com). Solitaire is a good book; I want it to make lots of new friends.
And please go look at the bookpage, and drop a comment over there if you’re inclined to let Gavin and the Small Beer crew know that they have done a cool thing by bringing Solitaire back to the party!
