June-July hiatus
June 30th, 2008
Friends of Idylls Press, please excuse our recent silence; we’ve been re-locating, both as a business and as a family. As is so often the case, I underestimated how challenging and time-consuming this process would be…will someone please remind me never to move again?
The good news is: we’ve sold our home of twelve years in Salem, and Clan Murphy has moved lock, stock and office to beautiful Ashland, Oregon, our favorite place on the planet.
The bad news is, we’re (literally) up to our eyeballs in boxes, our office phone and computers are not yet re-connected, and we’re anticipating several more weeks of Total Chaos. Ergo, we will continue to lay low on the internet for a while, though we’ll try to check messages and keep up as much as we can on direct orders, etc.
The other good news is that we’ll soon be anouncing the publication (mid-July) of the second book in Maureen McQuerry’s fabulous Wolfproof trilogy. recently featured on Catholic Radio Inernational’s Cover-to-Cover series. Travelers Market, illustrated by our very own John Murphy, is a wonderful sequel continuing the adventures of three middle-school children caught up in a parallel universe where creatures from Celtic and British mythology come alive to do great good…and sometimes great evil.
Check back mid-July for the launch!
