One New Book, Two New Covers.
Catherine Ryan Hyde
Sometime in April, Second Hand Heart is re-launching with a--much more appealing, I think--new cover. So I wanted to present it to you now, and hear what you think.
And, not long after that, my newest story collection, Subway Dancer and Other Stories, will be available for purchase in ebook format. I've already created a Subway Dancer and Other stories page, with more information. My short stories tend to be a bit more edgy than my newer novels, so that's what you see reflected here in the cover, which I had a great deal of control over. I'm really happy with my covers now that I'm able to direct the creation of exactly what I imagine in my head.
Then just a couple of months after that, not long after Amazon Publishing launches the new Walk Me Home and the Encore Edition When I Found You, you'll be seeing another brand new novel, this time in the U.S. first. It's called Where We Belong, and I'll reveal that cover just as soon as it's final, along with more about the book.
No, I'm not really writing as fast as it looks like I am. We're catching up here in the U.S. with several novels that saw first publication in the U.K. And a few projects like Subway Dancer and Other Stories have been waiting in line for a long time, because traditional publishers aren't all that fond of short fiction.
As always, when there's more news, this blog will be the place to hear it. Thanks for staying tuned!
