    2015 Publisher News: March What’s Happening at WEE… Meeting the staff, new collections

    Hi all, You may have noticed that we have not put out any new releases in March. That was because I was off for a few weeks visiting the US, where I got to meet two of my very long-time authors: Robert Beers and Will Greenway and two of my cover artists: Laura Shinn and Josh Shinn and catch up with our editor and print formatter (my daughter) Jenna Cummins. It was great, they are all as wonderful in person as I had expected from our long-time email communications. Below are some photos taken during the trip of my meeting the staff. I don’t yet have the one with me,…

    2015 Publisher News: September: Book updates, new covers, and lots more

    Wow, what a few months we have had! As you know from earlier news posts we have been updating all our books to the latest formatting. We have been replacing a lot of covers while doing this, and updating bios to have our authors’ latest books included, PLUS other books in their genres by other WEE authors! Because of all this our new releases have suffered a bit, but the end is in sight!  Other than books that need new covers or have minor erratas being done to them, I am down to 29 books to go! I still have to do these around our new releases, so perhaps we’ll…

She’d grown up to be a fine looking figure of a woman. He…
