quick news

things are moving fast right now. Shortly there will be news on two exciting reprints, that we expect to offer in trade size and, for the first time, hardcover. We’re just sorting out some printing issues and expect to be ready to go with these in a week or two.

Lewis Shiner’s LOVE IN VAIN is almost ready to go to the printers. We hope to get this polished in the next 2 days and will keep you informed. It’s going to be a damn fine book.

And in the news I can’t tell you about department, we’re presently in negotiation on several new projects that have me very excited. Stay tuned.

Happy new year!

Sorry for the delayed update. Things have been ticking along, and
we’ve tied up a bunch of effort in relaunching ticonderogaOnline –
now called ticon4. Much easier to spell and work a look –

Now we’re looking at the 2009/2010 publishing schedule, and there
should be some exciting news soon. But to start…

INDIEBOOKSONLINE?

It is still the Ticonderoga Publications store. We’re in the process
of expanding and rebranding, and right now it’s as if the shop is
half painted but still stocked with some great stuff.
