I have a new blog post in my blog "Long Day's Journey Into Dwight." In the post, I answer 10 questions
about my new book THE HOPE STORE, which is about the first store in the world to sell hope over the counter.
The novel is trippy, speculative.

Currently, Hydra/Random House is reading it. Hydra is their new ebook science fiction imprint. Unagented writers may query them
with five pages from their books. And if the editor likes it, she will request the full. My editor has been reading my full for a month
and said she will let me know her decision in a week or two. I'd love a 3 book deal with Hydra.
It seems with the big publishers launching
new ebook imprints, this make it much easier for them to take chances on new writers. A friend of mine just got a 3 book deal with Harper Collins
thru their romance ebook imprint. He is also unagented and self-published several books on his own.
