Preliminary updates. And I should mention that if you happen to like old-school vintage 60s-70s sf/fantasy from Marion Zimmer Bradley (and even some newer stuff including a fantasy she co-wrote with Andre Norton and Mercedes Lackey), you can get some of her older backlist works very cheaply using this week's Fictionwise 60% off discount coupon which should be good through the rest of today and possibly until Thursday morning as well.

FW also have some fairly good backlist sf/fantasy DRM-free in multiple formats from various re-publishers, as well. Linkage for the coupon code, linkage for MZB's backlist works in the FW catalogue.

Jack Remick has co-authored a Dell-published how-to-write-mysteries book and had a poetry collection small-pressed in the 80s. This is his thriller about a mercenary killer who decides to write what he knows: Blood

Bram Stoker Award finalist Wayne Allen Salee (ISFDB entry) offers a collection of zombie stories: For You The Living

Minor ISFDB-ed Phoebe Matthews who also wrote for the big romance publishers returns with a psychic romantic suspense: My Deja Vu Lover

Sarah Stonich offers a literary/women's fiction/maybe-romance which starts in Toronto and was originally published by in 2005 by Little Brown & Co.: The Ice Chorus

Previously-included Signet-published Barbara Bartholomew offers a YA fantasy adventure which demonstrates why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover (and also, why plain covers might work better): Becoming Merlin (A Short Story of the Magic Land) (Chronicles of Endymion)

Previously-included Latin American politics/culture author Michael Hogan offers the self-explanatory short: A Writer's Manual: For Inmates in Correctional Institutions

Seattle writer "Winner of the 2007 Spokane Prize for Short Fiction" Midge Raymond returns with a collection of her literary shorts, small-pressed in 2009 with praise from local newspapers: Forgetting English: Stories

This is her historical novel about: Mozart's Wife BWLPP also has a few other freebies out (some repeats) across multiple genres if you're interested. Frankly, you're better off searching for both their names as keywords since any links I give you will pull up the Prime Lending "free" stuff in the mix as well.

Coffeetown Press is a small Seattle based imprint with a variety of litfic/genre/reader companion works in their listings. Andrew Novo says that he has a doctoral degree from Oxford University in history and a bunch of other academic credits. This is his historical novel, published by Coffeetown in 2010, abut the Turkish invasion of Constantinople in 1453: Queen of Cities
