Nominate Yesterday's Tomorrow for 5-Year Publishing Deal


WE NEED YOU!

From Saturday, March 19, 2016 for the next 30 days, author G.W. Pomichter’s latest novel Yesterday’s Tomorrow is participating in the Kindle Scout program, competing for a publishing contract with Amazon Publishing.

Yesterday’s Tomorrow is a near future thriller about a world forever changed by a devastating terrorist attack that could either cripple the free world or pull communities together as never before.

This will be the 5th book released by author and journalist G.W. Pomichter, who is the host of the growing internet series, the Hangin’ With Web Show, on which he promotes indie authors, artists, filmmakers and other creators through fun and casual interviews. Pomichter was joined in this project by co-author William DuPree.

The pair have been friends for more than a decade, but this is the first time they have collaborated a project of this kind.

If selected for publication, Yesterday’s Tomorrow will be granted a 5-year e-book and audio publishing contract by Amazon Publishing, and DuPree and Pomichter will also be releasing the book in paperback.

“It is a great privilege to participate in the Kindle Scout program and to give readers a chance to help bring this story to life,” said DuPree.

“We have been working on this story for the past year, running various scenarios and narratives to give this world a very 3 dimensional and real-to-life feel,” Pomichter added. “It is going to be something that readers will find completely immersive.”

To help produce Yesterday’s Tomorrow, visit the Kindle Scout campaign page and nominate it for publication.

Indie Authors Converge on Orlando for IBF 2015



Orlando, FL — From July 31 until August 2, 2015 central Florida Independent authors will descend on Orlando’s Caribe Royale Hotel for Indie BookFest 2015.
The Indie BookFest event is designed to showcase self-published and independent authors to readers and consumers, while providing opportunities to network with artists, cover designers, editors, online bloggers and other professionals from the independent publishing community.
The number of independent authors and other professionals who are unaffiliated with traditional publishing companies and venues has been on the rise in recent years due in no small part to the shift in costs associated with self-publishing via the internet.  Services like KDP, an Amazon direct to e-book platform, Draft2Digital, another e-book platform and Amazon’s CreateSpace™ Publishing, a print on demand service, have introduced relatively simple, user friendly and inexpensive ways for writers and other artists to bring their books, music and even movies directly to consumer audiences worldwide.
“Technology in this case is setting artists free from the constraints of the past,” said author G.W.Pomichter.  “Print on Demand and e-book formats have opened the market and given every writer access to the printing presses that used to be controlled by a handful of business interests.  It is a re-inventing of the printing press, and it really is quite extraordinary.”
Indie BookFest is an opportunity for these entrepreneurs to showcase their work and to meet with potential readers as well as each other to celebrate what some like Pomichter say is a revolution in the artistic community.
Traditional publishing paths have customarily been difficult to break into and have been largely governed by very strict business performance standards, giving stockholders and professional business interests a greater influence over artistic projects.  But in the Internet age, and with greater technological access to print on demand services, new sales channels and distribution models, and even social media platforms to build and grow audiences, independent artists from film makers to authors are seeing a renaissance of opportunity.
Indie Bookfest is both a celebration of this phenomenon and an exercise in marketing these artists to the general public.
“It is a very exciting time to be an indie author,” said BookFest attendee and Author of the Submit to Darkness erotic thriller series, AJ Spencer.  “It is a time when artists can control their own work.  It is a time when a writer has to be more.  We have to be part creator and part marketer and part entrepreneur.”
Spencer will be joined by more than 80 other independent authors from throughout Florida and around the country, including many first time authors.  The gathering will feature Keynote Speaker and best selling independent author, Jana Oliver, and a number of panel discussions for both writers and readers. 
One of the most exciting portions of the 3-day event is a FREE author book signing event hosted from 2:30 p.m. until 5 p.m. on Saturday August 1, 2015.

Florida indie author launches new ‘Who-Done-It’ at “Indie Book Fest” in Orlando (July 31-Aug. 2)



MELBOURNE, FL — Independent author G.W. Pomichter is pleased to announce his newest book, “Lot 28” set for release on July 29, 2015.
“Lot 28” is a sequel to Pomichter’s homage to classic noir, “Lucky,” which has soared to success since its June 2014 release.  “Lucky” has sat in Amazon’s top 100 several times during 2014/15, and has gathered a significant social media following.
“Lot 28” follows Pomichter’s William Lucky Marks character on another murder mystery case, this time set in 1950’s Hollywood.
G.W. Pomichter describes the novella as a look at the more classic mystery “who-done-it” genre.
“It is always fun to write a story with such amazing roots in modern literature,” Pomichter said.  “When we first read ‘Lucky,’ we are taken on a very nostalgic journey into the darker noir fiction of the 1930s and 40s.  With ‘Lot 28,’ I really wanted to have a bit of fun with the “who-done-it” style familiar from ‘Clue’ or ‘And Then There Were None.’”

Pomichter summarizes the story, writing:

“In the summer of 1953, Private Investigator, Will “Lucky” Marks, was working as the in-house private eye for Arcane Pacific Pictures. That’s the summer when famed director Allister Walters was brutally stabbed to death on the scene of his last blockbuster hit mystery, the 1953 noir cult classic, “Witness to the Act.” Lucky is on the scene, and is pulled into this deliciously, deceitful drama of Hollywood film-making. Trapped inside the studio with the killer, Lucky must sort through arcane stereotypes, and challenge common perceptions of the time, as well as his own prejudices in order to sort through the gossip, innuendo and intrigue, to find the killer before time runs out. This movie murder mystery will pit Lucky against some of the most deceitful creatures on earth: movie stars.”

Pomichter claims that “Lot 28” was written to stand alone as its own story, but that fans and readers of “Lucky” will still get enough to demonstrate the connection between the two books. 
“In this story, we get to see that Lucky suffers some consequences of the first book,” Pomichter said.  “He isn’t as prepared as he should be for this case, because of his impatience in the first story.  It means it takes a bit longer for him to fit the pieces together.  Of course we also reference characters from book one, and some of our visual descriptions are meant to evoke images from the first as well.  But in all, set as a different kind of story on the precipice of a different era, ‘Lot28’ stands by itself.”
“Lot 28” will be released in both e-book and in paperback at online book stores: Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Apple’s popular iBooks, Kobo, Scrib’d and GooglePlay on July 29, 2015.
G.W. Pomichter will debut the book in paperback at the 2015 Indie Book Fest from July 31 thru August 2 at the Caribe Royale Hotel in Orlando, Florida.  For more information about Indie Book Fest, visit http://www.indiebookfestcon.com on the internet.
