One of our goals for the coming year
here at the Arachis Press is to release revised editions of many of
our titles. Not surprisingly, we have found mistakes – mostly
typographical – in some of the books and intend to remedy those.
Indeed, the only two completely
error-free books (as far as we can tell) are the picture book, A
MOUSE IS IN THE HOUSE, and the biography/art book, THE ART OF K. PAGE
BROOKE. These will require no changes.
There may or may not be a revision of
the beginners’ chapter book, THE CONTRARY FAIRY. We have found only
one very small typo there, which has no effect on the story, so it
might not be worth changing. We might release an ebook (EPUB and,
probably, MOBI/Kindle) version — we originally felt it was not a
suitable format but are reconsidering that decision.
At any rate, expect revisions of all
the remaining titles over the course of 2015, beginning with our
first poetry chapbook, PIECES OF THE MOON by Stephen Brooke. That’s
ready to send to the printer right now.
Once all four books of DONZALO’S
DESTINY are revised, we do intend to offer a combined print version,
possibly including a hard-cover edition. Expect that before the
coming year ends.
Of course, we do hope to offer new
titles and that will receive priority over the work on the older
books. What will those new titles be? Stay tuned and find out!
