New Horror Novel Out!

[tkingfisher]

The Twisted Ones is available now! Critics seem to like it! You can get it via Amazon or any of the other places books are sold, including bookstores and all that good stuff! (I'm next to Stephen King. Hadn't planned that when I picked the pen name...)

If you are in the UK, you gotta wait a bit longer--Titan UK bought the rights and will be releasing it on their own schedule. I'm sorry for the delay, it's sadly beyond my control. The next one is supposed to be simultaneous, though.

I have found that with trans-Atlantic rights splits it is possible to persuade a British publisher to release simultaneously with a US publisher ... but you need a long enough lead time for the editors to nag each other into submission and agree a target date, and someone has to bang heads together to ensure they agree on the same title and the book only gets copy-edited and typeset once (usually one publisher buys the typeset files from the other and then re-flow them in InDesign).

Nightmare sauce is when you (the author) have to tackle two separate copy edits into different regional versions of English ... then two sets of page proofs, then the book surfaces with different titles on different launch dates and all your readers scream at you, personally, for making them buy two copies of the same book.

In theory, the next book will be simultaneous, but we have like a year plus of lead time on that.
