How Do I Choose? – Acquisitions for Gypsy Shadow Publications

August 11, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

In 2009, I began a new chapter in my life. Not only was I co-owner of Gypsy Shadow Publisher, but I started wearing several hats within the Indie Publisher business. CFO – Chief Financial Officer – Definitely the Buck stops here – receive and distribute money for book sales to authors. Chief Editor – and for the most part the only editor! Work with authors to create the best book out of their manuscripts and get them on the market.

Acquisitions Editor.Acquisitions Editor

Receive submissions from a whole range of authors.

And I mean a very wide range! From the beginning, I chose the manuscripts I believed would be right for us and the most easily polished for the market. I chose the authors I resonated with – that’s the only way I can say it, because I chose authors by the way they wrote about themselves and what they said. AND I chose the manuscripts which were submitted following the submission guidelines, we placed on the website.

I’d like to give you a couple of great examples.

Violetta Antcliff and Anne Petzer were recommended to us by respected members of the writing and publishing community. Violetta lives in Sherwood Forest and is an extremely versatile short story writer. Her Jason stories are a joy. One of my favorites of her stories is Sneaky Shenanigans about a rather bashful bachelor courting a widow. Anne Petzer’s stories are based in Prague, the Czech Republic, where Anne resides. The Feline Intelligence agent, Zvonek 08, named for one of Anne’s cats, solves mysteries and combats crime.

Sneaky Shenanigans by Violetta AntcliffHere’s a bit of Sneaky Shenanigans:

    Patrick O’Malley had come to a decision. Today he would ask the widow Bridget Flynn if she would consider walking out with him. He’d thought long and hard about it, spent sleepless nights tossing and turning, weighing up the pros and cons. Now, right or wrong, his mind was made up.
 
     It was six months since his old Ma had passed away and over two years since Bridget’s man had died. He knew there were bonuses for a man living on his own, smoking a pipe without being told get outside with the evil smelling thing was just one of them. The pleasure of being able to fart when and where he pleased without blaming it on the dog was another. But if the truth was known, he had to admit there were some things a woman could do better than a man. Putting a good supper on the table, darning socks and turning collars on shirts, just to mention a few. He missed his old Ma but it was time he started getting on with his own life, hence his resolve to call on the widow woman and chance his luck.
 
     Wearing his second best working clothes and Sunday cap, the dog at his heel, he strode determinedly towards the widow’s front door, knocked, and waited. He knew she was in, he’d seen the curtains twitch. She’s in no hurry to open the door to me, he thought blowing on his hands, its bloody cold standing out here. “Sit, boy,” he said giving the dog a pat on the head, “Not long now. I can hear her coming, Just you be on your best behavior do you hear me? No jumping up or chasing the cat.”  

And here is a bit of Cat on Thin Ice, Anne’s first Zvonek 08 story.

Zvonek 08, book 1 by Anne PetzerZvonek stretched out on the big comfortable bed with the thick soft duvet, and closed his eyes. Life was good again; at least for a few days; hopefully weeks, now that the mission was finished. He loved Strašnice, it had been his home for a year now and already he had so many good memories. Bad ones too, but they didn’t count when you had so much to be grateful for. Ahhh…with only one life gone, he could still enjoy himself.

The evening had ended on a good note, although it had not started that way. Zvonek had not called for back-up, leaving him and Honza in a very vulnerable position. Vladimir, his boss, known to them as V, was not happy with them. He felt Zvonek not only compromised the mission, but put their lives in unnecessary danger. However, the job had been done, he and Honza had escaped unscathed, and after a few days, V would see that.

So in true cat fashion, Zvonek stretched out and closed his eyes once more. Remembering all the good things, he slowly drifted off into a daydream of salmon truffles and low fat milk, served by pretty feline waitresses at a luxury resort paid for by Feline Intelligence (FI). This kitty agent was certainly due for some down time. He was, after all Zvonek 08.

Just as the bit of feline fluff in his dream was about to scratch his ear, a shrill noise jolted him back to reality. Mom’s alarm clock! Food. Breakfast. He jumped up, stretched and made for the kitchen. Life was good!

Sometime later after Mom had gone to work, Zvonek was sunning himself in the window, watching the fat juicy pigeons peck at food on the ground, the scroungers, when a sudden movement caught his eye. Something to the left, under the car, he thought. Immediately alert, he tensed and watched the spot intently, waiting. Minutes ticked by: nothing.

Bah! he thought, my nerves are still jittery from the last mission. Just nerves.

Zvonek resumed his grooming, then stretched again. This is great. Warmth, peace—what more…There, the movement again. This time he crept behind the curtain and peered out, obscured from whatever it was under the car. If indeed there was something there. Not entirely convinced that it was just his imagination, he waited and waited, but still nothing.

Hmmm. I am becoming paranoid, he thought, maybe a life short is enough to give me the jitters.

I hope you can see why I chose them!

Have a great day and READ!

Reader’s Choice – Genres

August 5, 2016 By Charlotte Holley 2 Comments

All Posts

What do you like to read? Have you ever thought about the genres that books come in?

Recently, the library in Buda, Texas, which I frequent most often, has begun to rearrange their books by genre. I was startled to find this, because, as an editor of many books, I find that a lot of modern books are not written to a ‘formula’ and do not fit in a single genre.

Genres:

Literary Genres Poster

When we started out, Gypsy Shadow Publishing created a unique set of genres with definitions for each one. As we enter our 7th year of life as a company, I am again struck with the need to find out what the readers want!

Gypsy Shadow’s 12 Genres

I love to read and I love to work with writers on their books. However, without readers, writers don’t get the feedback they desire and the books, ideas, thoughts, information and emotions remain ‘on the shelf’ undiscovered and undiscussed.

The Challenge

My mother is also a voracious reader and pointed out a flaw in the genre sorting at our library. One of the authors she reads creates a lot of romance books. The book that Mother selected and brought home turned out to be a dramatic and traumatic story based in Europe in World War II, it was not a romance novel by any stretch of the imagination. It was placed in romances because of the author’s name.

Yep, that would be a flaw. And at Gypsy Shadow Publishing, our authors are not restricted to any particular genre at all! Therefore, when you click through the genres on our sites, you will find the books in a number of different genres.

What do you think? Are the ten standard genres sufficient? Most distributors allow us to select up to 3 for each book. Are the Gypsy Shadow genres helpful?

Have a great day and READ!

Cover Art by Manon Daniels Massari http://www.manondanielsmassari.yolasite.com/

There’s something different about Sarah Town. It’s brimming with ghosts – and some of those ghosts need help! That’s where the GHOST Group comes in – the Ghost Helpers of Sarah Town. The GHOST Group is made up of five 11-year-old team members: Jesse, Jenny, Ryan, Trent, and Cassie.

The Ghost of the Irish Setter is a “ghost dog” story where team member Jesse must come to terms with losing his dog, Lolly, after she ran away. A ghost dog that is an Irish setter seeks Jesse’s help, but when the rest of the GHOST Group join the case, it becomes a matter of life or death after Cassie and Ryan are kidnapped! Can the GHOST Group help the ghost dog? And can Jesse find out what really happened to Lolly?

In The Ghost of the Missing Hiker, a day of April Fool’s hijinks turn into another mystery for the GHOST Group. Meanwhile, the group’s helper ghost, Adam, has some bad news for the team, and Jenny realizes she must accept her special gift and learn how to use it so she can help other ghosts in Sarah Town.

The Dragon, the Witch and the Railroad by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough

July 30, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

Fantasy fans will be happy to discover the 5th book of the Seashell Archives collection by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough. Elizabeth Ann has not lost her touch for bringing her readers a huge dose of tongue-in-cheek humour, the kind where you stop and reread the lines to be sure the author really did say that! Even though it’s part of a series, this book is a perfectly legitimate beginning for a new reader, soon to be a fan, of this wonderful author.

The Dragon, the Witch and the Railroad by Elizabeth Ann ScarboroughCheck out The Dragon, the Witch and the Railroad by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough

http://gypsyshadow.com/ElizabethScarborough.html#DWR

Progress has transformed Queenston, capital city of Argonia. Once the land of witches, wizards, fairies, and other magical people and animals, since the Great War, the country has changed. Queenston, particularly, is now the city of contraptions and conveyances, including a modern international railroad.

In the Great War Argonia’s dragons allied with the armies to push back an invasion. For their assistance, the beasts shared what food remained as the country rebuilt itself. But with the war won, the allies came to “recover” the war-torn country, bringing with them new ideas and inventions, most of which only needed a supply of iron and a reliable source of heat for their boilers. The dragons were again recruited, tamed, altered and virtually enslaved to power Progress.

Verity Brown is a modern girl. The magic of her witchy foremothers has become, if not actually illegal, highly unfashionable. The only magic that matters to Verity is her own curse, forcing her to know and tell the truth regardless of convenience.

On Verity’s 16th birthday, a hot-air balloon crash kills her father. The balloon’s dragon and wrangler rescue Verity, but are blamed and sentenced to be put to death. Her honorable quest to save them and find her father’s murderer takes her straight into the den of the wild and ferocious Dragon Vitia.

Adonis by Violetta Antcliff

July 29, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

Visitors from other planets are not usually a part of renting a cottage and Susan is a woman who feels she can take on anything, as long as she can identify the problem, she can discover an answer to it. Enter the image of an Adonis, a naked man on a rainy night – seared into her memory, and the awareness that an escaped prisoner is on the loose. Violetta Antcliff has woven a tale of mystery, brewed with a wee touch of fun.

Adonis by Violetta AntcliffCheck out Adonis by Violetta Antcliff

http://gypsyshadow.com/Violetta.html#Adonis

Susan is a strong woman; not even the break up of her marriage fazed her. She just picked herself up, brushed herself off and got on with life. She has a firm belief that for every problem there is an answer. However, when she rents a cottage on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds, she finds her motto put to the test. UFOs, a naked man who claims to be an interplanetary agent, and a dangerous escaped prisoner are not typical everyday occurrences in her life. And as she is to find out to her dismay, a cup of tea is not the answer to the strange state of affairs she finds herself caught up in.
