An update on publishing efforts

July 15th, 2010

I’m in discussions with Tricycle Press, an imprint of Random House, on turning Letter Off Dead into a book for the fall of 2011. At their request, I submitted a summary of the revised storyline and a thorough edit of the first 30 pages. They tell me I should hear from them by the end of the month.

In the meantime, I’m plowing ahead on rewrites, promoting my first novel, The Tilting House, and biting my fingernails.

Stay tuned.

    About

    Letter Off Dead is an actual transcript of letters sent between a 7th grade boy and his dead father. It covers the subjects of life and death, faith and doubt, fathers and sons.

    The textual transcript has been edited and presented here by Tom Llewellyn, a writer from Tacoma, Washington. The illustrations have been edited and presented by artist James Stowe, also from Tacoma. None of the content has anything to do with Tom's or James' beloved and very separate employers.
