We finally have a 'true' website for our imprint, Eggshell Boats. We set up EB for publishing poetry, literary fiction, that sort of thing — essentially to keep all that separated a bit from the fantasy and adventure and children's books we also publish. It is at eggshellboats.com or at eggshellboats.insolentlad.com. Yes, it is a subdomain at Insolent Lad Media now, rather than just a page.
Somewhat bare-bones for the moment but we will update as we feel moved to do so. Before the first EB offering, the poetry collection VOYAGES appears, for sure. That is set for November 1, 2017. Most of our current poetry titles will be moved to Eggshell Boats, by the way.

Arrows of Heaven Book Release
We announce the official release of Stephen Brooke's new fantasy-adventure novel, "Arrows of Heaven" for Sept 1, 2017. Available in print and ebook.
The end of every epic is the
beginning of another.
Who was Teme? A noble girl, sister to
the High King of all the Mora, and of an age to marry appropriately?
Yes, she was this, but also a renowned archer, acclaimed by her
people as a hero of the recent civil war, named in the epics bards
sang across the land.
Warrior or woman? Was it possible to be
both? Through intrigues and adventures in the realm of the Mora and
beyond, Teme has one quest above all others — to learn who she
truly is.

Coming Attractions 2017
Three books by Stephen Brooke in the pipeline for the second half of 2017:
The fantasy adventure ARROWS OF HEAVEN, second installment of the Mora trilogy is scheduled for a September 1 release. ARROWS picks up three years after the events in GOD OF RAIN and is told by Teme, sister of the High King of the Mora.
VOYAGES is a new collection of poems, many with a nautical theme, all about the voyage that is called life. Expect release around the beginning of November (exact date to be announced). This will be our first book published under the Eggshell Boats imprint.
ASANAS is a mainstream novel set in contemporary Florida, revolving around two women, an art gallery, and a yoga class. We hope to have it available before Christmas; if not, early in 2018.

End to the PDF
Looking over our sales for the past twelve months we find that we have sold exactly zero e-books in PDF format. Therefor, we have deleted all PDFs from our store and will no longer offer them to the public. If you MUST have one, of course the PDFs from which our print editions are prepared are always available.
Offering them was no big deal, requiring only the preparation of a slightly revised version of the print-ready PDF, but it does clear up clutter at our store by removing a third of the listings!
