Friend and author Valerie Douglas has just announced she has signed with Fantasy Island Book Publishing.
I caught up with Val while she was preparing to test-drive a Lamborghini Diablo. She said, “Truthfully, at times I wasn’t sure it was ever going to happen. . . Then one day in an on-line conversation I met JD from Fantasy Island Book Publishing. He liked what he saw of Servant of the Gods, my most recent release. He bet me that if I took the chance, he could get it on the Amazon bestseller lists faster than I could. If he succeeded I had to sign a contract with Fantasy Island. You have to like a guy that cocky but he did it. In four days! You can’t beat success.” No, I rather imagine not.
We all wish Val the best in her ventures with her new publisher, and trust we will still bump into her at the old water-cooler from time to time.
Love it…!!
Awesome job Valerie. That would be nice to have someone like JD and his cockyness behind us all in our writing.
Nice post Stephen, as always.
