Today’s NextGen Publisher isn’t a personal friend — yet.
Tuscany Bay Books came to my attention when there was a bit of a kerfuffle involving one of their authors and their publisher — Richard Paolinelli — backed his author. Sorry to say that’s kind of unique these days.
They started out as an on-line magazine publisher in 2007, expanded to novels in 2013, and has a decent collection of authors, including (but not limited to) Lori Janeski, Bob Brill, Rob Jones, Raconteur author Declan Finn, and others.
I’d like to mention that Lori was in a massive car wreck recently, so if you could go by her Amazon page and show her some love, it would be greatly appreciated.
As you can see, Tuscany Bay Books offers some genres that the other NextGen Publishers I’ve mentioned don’t — including poetry.
I am gently informed that most of our readers would probably enjoy the Planetary Anthology series, and members of our staff are big on the Saint Tommy series, so you might consider starting there. although — quite honestly — the Cthulu Amalgamated series looks right up my alley.
Their YouTube channel is here.
Facebook is here.
One thing to keep an eye on too, is the long-awaited debut of SF living legend John C. Wright’s Starquest series, born out of the author’s frustration with a certain…war of stellar bodies…setting.
Publisher Richard Paolinelli himself has two prequels out in this series, which is off to a promising start!
I’d take it kindly if you’d tell five friends about Tuscany Bay Books, go by their social media and say “Hi!”, and then browse their backlist. I think you’ll be pleased.
