At long last, we are officially launching the new and improved site. This is still a work in progress, though, as there is more information to be added and exciting features still in development.    We hope you enjoy the layout and design and appreciate your patience for the first week or so as there are sure to be “gremlins” that appear in the form of broken links, etc. as we transition from the preview to active status. To report any such problems, please use the Email Webmaster (there's a link at the bottom of each page, too).

Stephen will be judging book trailers submitted for a contest in which amateur and professional filmmakers produce book trailers (similar to movie trailers) based on the SHOMI imprint—a series of modern-day fantasy fiction.  The contest is sponsored by Dorchester Publishing and Circle of Seven Productions. The best trailer—as selected by Steve—will be shown at a movie premiere in New York City as well as a theater in the winner’s home market.   

For more information on SHOMI and complete rules for the contest, including submission guidelines and deadlines, please visit www.shomifiction.com
