ABCtaler Strikes It Big
Posted by scratch on Tue, 10 Nov 2015
It’s always uplifting to be the bringer of good news.
Many of us know that getting anything published is difficult, even getting a short poem accepted by an obscure journal sometimes seems to be an impossible ambition.
Getting past the agents - the sentinels of the literary world - is an entirely different and extremely difficult proposition. So, fast-forward a few thousand miles and imagine not just securing a contract with a major publisher but also receiving a very tidy advance on your novel.
Stuff of dreams? Maybe. But that’s exactly what long-time ABCtales member Tony Thorne http://www.abctales.com/user/tonythorne has managed to do.
A major Chinese publisher based in Beijing has snapped up Tony’s brilliant book Singularity and the first print run of 3K copies is in press.
A huge collective ABCtales WELL DONE! Tony. Let this be the start of an avalanche of publications for you. More power to your pen.
I'd like to offer congratulations from Tony Cook, the editorial team and the greater ABCtales family on your wonderful news.
Peter.
