I thought the Pulp Awards were in Chicago tonight but the website linked below says it was yesterday. Anyhow, I was nominated for Best Novel and for two different stories for best Short Story. One of the short stories actually won, so now I get a rather nice trophy. All Pulp Blog Site My first Robin Hood book's cover artist, Mike Manley, got Best Cover award too. It would have been nice if my publisher had got Robin Hood: Arrow of Justice out to the shops this week (schedule delays, I think) but instead they're going to rush Sherlock Holmes, Consulting Detective Volume 3 out instead (volume 2 had the aforementioned award-winning story "The Last Deposit" in it). Fortunately I wrote 1/4 of Holmes 3 as well, a novella called "The Lucky Leprechaun", wherein two little girls claim their uncle was abducted by the fairies. I think this one will be out as an e-book as well, and that's a really cheap way of getting to read it (introductory price $3, I believe). If any of you read any of this stuff let me know. The worst things about publishing stuff are that I can't give it away free because 40% of profits go to other people and I don't get feedback from a message board to help me gauge what it was like. | |

I haven't read the Holmes story yet, so I can't comment too deeply on that one, but the cover win for Robin Hood is a nice bit of attention as well for a book that truly deserves it! | |

I'm going to order RH:KoS when i have a bit of time next week (the combination of Easter, ANZAC Day and Labour Day here give us a long holiday this year and I am looking forward to using it to catch up on things I have been missing here, amongst others). Once I've read it - I'll be happy to provide a PVB style response.  | |

Subject: Well done! Is that Holmes story a meta-fictional nod to Doyle's involvement in the Cottingley fairies case? [Re: HH] Posted Wed Apr 20, 2011 at 06:32:34 pm EDT (Viewed 434 times) |
