attend Raw Dog Screaming Press’ (RDSP) first DogCon, an invite-only
convention to celebrate RDSP and to announce some of its plans for the upcoming year.
Michael A Arnzen's virtual book reading at DogCon |
favorite Raw Dog authors, including Steven Archer, Dustin LaValley, John Lawson, Donna Lynch, Jason Jack Miller, Leland Pitts-Gonzalez, and Matthew Warner.
During the State of the Dog address, editor and co-founder Jennifer Barnes also announced Raw Dog will be expanding its claws and sinking its fangs into the realm of science fiction with the launch of its new imprint Dog Star Books. Dog Star Books will bring readers' favorite sub-genres of Science Fiction Adventure under the imprint's unifying brand.
Leading this imprint will be Heidi Ruby Miller who is no stranger to the science fiction adventure genre. A life-long fan of sci-fi, Heidi has written numerous stories and essays on science fiction. During the State of the Dog, it was revealed that veteran authors such as Mike Resnick will be included in this launch as well as newcomers such as K. Ceres Wright, whose novel Cog will be published under the Dog Star name.
And so congratulations to RDSP in this upcoming year (and every year after).
This old dog keeps showing us it can learn new tricks.
Just remember not to pet its fur the wrong way.
Great write up, Mike!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you were there to enjoy the festivities and the announcement about Dog Star Books.
Do John and Jennifer know how to throw a party or what?

I’m impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I come across a blog that’s both equally educative and interesting, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. The issue is something too few men and women are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy that I stumbled across this during my search for something regarding this.

Thank you so much for the kind words. I try to be informative (I'm a geek and love learning about new things) but I also want the search for information to be enjoyable for people. Again, I'm honored you thought enough to comment, and I hope to have you back here soon.
