Just to update everyone, there’s been a change of plans regarding the publication of ebook versions of my third novel, The Good Humor Man, or, Calorie 3501. When I first started this blog a few months back, at the beginning of July, 2011, Tachyon Publications, publisher of the printed book version, and I had just signed a contract with Ridan Publications to have them issue and publicize the ebook. However, since that time, scheduling conflicts and a host of high profile projects have emerged at Ridan, so they informed us they wouldn’t be able to put out The Good Humor Man as an ebook at this time.
However, the good folks at Tachyon have always been major boosters of The Good Humor Man, and so they have agreed to make the book available in a number of e-formats, including Kindle, Nook, and Microsoft Reader, among others. So those of you who have been awaiting an e-version of The Good Humor Man shouldn’t have to wait too much longer. It should be available sometime during the second half of October, 2011, probably just in time for Halloween. I’ll keep you all posted once the actual release date is set.
Halloween… now why do I suspect this was one of Elvis’s favorite holidays (along with Thanksgiving and Christmas… can’t have too much turkey, pumpkin pie, eggnog, or fruitcake, after all)? Well, all the characters running around the world of The Good Humor Man would have to agree it’s a darn good thing the King of Rock and Roll sure liked his fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches…
