Lost Telegram Press: 1 year anniversary
Although we started releasing books back in March and really didn’t get fully in the swing of things until about June, this company started putting in over 40-hour weeks starting in September of 2024. Because it has been a full year, I wanted to look back and let you know all of the stories that you may not know from these blogs.

One of the ways that writers can give back and promote their own works is through book recommendation sites. One such site is Shepherd. It is there that John Biscello recently made his pick for 5 recent reads that wowed him.
Amazon continues to sell books of hate
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.
New distributors added
In an ongoing effort to increase the capacity of the company and provide more opportunity for the authors, without sacrificing ethics, I was able to add many new distributors where, over the next week or so, all of the current text-based ebooks will be available.

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.
