Chicago book launch sells out
Taylor Thornburg’s book launch in his home city of Chicago left him empty handed in a good way. He sold out of the stack of books he had for the event, which is the best news we could ask for.

Lost Telegram Press is now being advertised across the CBC Network. This includes CBC Gem (its streaming news site), as well as CBC Listen and the CBC home site. This decision to advertise with the CBC is an exciting step but came with some interesting roadblocks, not with the CBC, but with the changing world of advertising in general.
The Whistler, a bar, record label, gallery, and venue that hosts live music and DJs is going to be hosting our author Taylor Thornburg’s book launch on July 16th. It’s located at 2421 North Milwaukee Ave. in Chicago.
As soon as the call for submissions opened, we got quite a number of projects which we were happy to look at and consider. It is difficult because, really all submissions have merit and qualities but what it comes down to is, the ones that don’t get selected are judged mostly because of technical, legal or copyright issues. But anyway, I thought these pie charts would be interesting to those in the industry. They are to us anyway…
As of today, Lost Telegram Press has signed another author who is new to us but not new to the publishing market: John Biscello. John has a new novel manuscript that will require some different attention, being a layered, somewhat experimental novel. So we agreed that Lost Telegram Press was a fitting avenue for it. This is in part, due to his passion for small presses and independent publishing.
Thank you very much to everyone who voted over the last several days for a favourite cover for Taylor Thornburg’s new novel Agathe, 6:00 p.m. to 7:27. Taylor and myself are very excited to present you with the cover.
