This is an exciting day for Lost Telegram Press. We have been working with Jinian Harwig for quite a while with the hope of finally signing a contract and getting down to working on her book. Just a short time ago she sent the latest version of her manuscript and it will offer an different look at the way that we can produce books. Hopefully we can work some very different aspects into the design of this book to knock your socks off.
After some very genuine conversations and an incredible story of how I came to know this writer, Jeremy Le Page has signed a contract so that Lost Telegram Press can release his full-length book of poetry later this year.
Valentine’s Day was a special day for many I am sure. At Lost Telegram Press, it was special for us too as another talented author joined the group: Steven Mayoff.
A major belief of Lost Telegram Press is archiving. We want to preserve ideas that may be lost to time. One way of doing that is by reviewing books. This one is a great example of this archival ideal as it was a library find, and in the ‘free’ section. The cover caught my eye. It is self-published, Canadian and I only had to read a few lines to get caught up in it.
Now the interesting thing is, this is a book sold in the Amazon marketplace, a place where anyone can really sell anything, almost like an eBay store. There are no checks and no safeguards. In the United States that may be fine with an item like this as hate literature is not only legal to publish but also sell. In Canada it is not.
Along with the two launches that author John Biscello is doing for his novel, The Last Furies, in Taos and Santa Fe, we will be doing one here in Canada around the same time.
