Welcome
Authors on the Air
August was a busy month for House of Honor Books. We have had one new book launch and expect to have at least two in September. Meanwhile, our authors have been busy with personal appearances, and having their work read and being interviewed on podcasts.
Keshia C. Willi had a successful book signing in Winchester, Virginia on the fifth and they have invited her back. Jack LaFountain signed books at the Midsummer Nerdy Noel Market in Huntsville, Alabama and all our books were on display there. Find out where we’ll be next later in the newsletter.
We are pleased to announce the signing of two new authors, Mark Stephen Villa and Terry Burns. Just click on their names to visit their page and find out more about them. And don’t forget to drop by our Authors Antics blog to hear what our authors have to say about writing and themselves.
True West
After the unforeseen death of his wife, American folk musician Jackson Crowe embarks on a nationwide journey to visit all of the landmarks that once inspired his muse in a desperate attempt to re-ignite his own passion for life.
Things go awry when mysterious hitchhikers begin to hijack the trip, and with each drifter comes a dark and deep history that latches itself onto Jackson, altering the course of both this odyssey and his own life. Buy it here.
The Hidden Corners podcast now has stories by our authors.
Listen to Rick Shaw's ghostly story based on true events called, The Promise.
Judy Snyder also has a ghostly offering feature on the podcast. Be sure to check out Click Clack.
