Hey there! Welcome to ‘Get Published’. I’m your host, Mike Plested. I have long believed that persistence is the key to getting your work published. I have also said that the journey to getting published can be a long one. Today’s guest proves both those little kernals of wisdom. On today’s show I talk to Nowick Gray about his writing journey and his newly released book, Hunter’s Daughter. We have a great discussion about a lot of topics that I think you will enjoy. I also want to take a moment to let you all know that Dimensional Abscesses, the first anthology produced by Evil Alter-Evil Publishing is almost ready for publication as an eBook. We have the stories procured […]

We talk about A Method to the Madness: A Guide to the Super Evil and some of the things we have been and will be doing to promote it. We also talk about some related, planned projects and how you can get involved. That’s today’s episode. I hope […]

For those of you who don’t know, I am co-editing an anthology (titled A Method to the Madness: A Guide to the Super Evil) with Jeffrey Hite. This is a project that we conceived more than a year ago over Twitter. We decided it would be fun to try our hands at creating an anthology and started the process of doing it ourselves, all the while looking for a publisher. We didn’t have to look long before Lorina Stephens and Five Rivers Publishing decided to take on the project with us. It has been both an adventure and a LOT of work to gather stories, edit them, place them into the anthology and now proof the Galley. But we are almost […]
