So great news from last month. We clocked in at 18,647 views, our second highest month to date. Thank you everyone so much for your continued support. I couldn't do any of this without all the people who take the time to read and comment on this blog. I do apologize if I can't always respond, but hopefully I will get better.
Thank you also to everyone who clicks through our Amazon banner. As you should know by now you can support the blog by making your Amazon purchases through The Update. I appreciate all the help I can get as I prepare to create a new company to handle all of the alternate history projects I have planned.
And now the news...
Gold Award for Bookworm confirms Christopher Nuttall as star of indie fiction
For those who don't know, Bookworm is a high fantasy novel in which the main protagonist, Elaine, an inexperienced witch in Golden City, has her life turned upside down when she triggers a magical trap hidden within a book. All the knowledge of magic in the Great Library becomes crammed inside her head, making her the "Bookworm" of the title. Avoiding the Inquisition, she tries to understand what has happened to her, but in reality she is a pawn in the dark plans of one who wants the Grand Sorcerer’s power.
Published in 2013, a review on Risingshadow described Bookworm as “fluently written escapism” and said that Nuttall has “woven an exciting and entertaining story of secrets, dark history, books, werewolves and magic, and knows how to keep the story on the move.” In June 2013 it was announced that the German translation rights to Bookworm had been acquired by RandomHouse Germany for publication under their Blanvalet imprint in 2015. The second in the series, Bookworm II: The Very Ugly Duckling, was published by Elsewhen Press in January 2014 and it will be followed by Bookworm III: The Best Laid Plans sometime early 2015.
One again congratulations to Chris and I hope to hear more good news in the future.
Amazing Stories Licenses Classic Name to FuturesPastEditions and Open Road Brands
The new imprint will be titled Amazing Stories Classic Reprints. The imprint will feature the comet tail Amazing Stories logo, made famous by the magazine in the 1940s and 50s. Works will be published in both electronic and print formats. FuturesPastEditions publisher and editor Jean Marie Stine will be selecting works of historical importance as well as works that should be commonly available but haven’t been for one reason or another. The series is expected to launch with two anthology volumes featuring stories from past Amazing Stories anniversary issues.
Additionally, Amazing Stories online magazine will feature a regularly monthly classic reprint, branded under the FuturesPastEditions name; the first such classic reprint, Don Wilcox’s The Voyage That Lasted 600 Years, was featured in the Amazing Stories 88th Anniversary Edition, currently being published on the Amazing Stories website.
Following that announcement, on the next day Amazing Stories declared that they also licensed the Amazing Stories trademark to to Open Road Brands, LLC. They will be creating and distributing reproductions of early Amazing Stories covers in formats suitable for display and decoration.
Open Road Brands, LLC will be distributing a selection of Amazing Stories cover art to major retail chain stores such as Hobby Lobby and others. Artwork is currently in production, but the Amazing Stories website will be sure to keep you informed of availability sometime later this year.
As one of the original bloggers of the relaunched Amazing Stories I am delighted that the site continues to grow. Please, if you haven't already, become a member of the site and be a part of SF history.

What is a Family Tree? The word “FAMILY” plays a vital role in every human life because family comes as a top priority; we are well aware of that. Like a tree has its root, stem, branches, leaf, flowers, the same as the family tree has its structure like grandparents, parents, child, and it keeps continuing from generation to generation. “Family tree,” yeah, just two simple words, but these two words are highly important for everyone’s life. Now the new generations don’t remember the accurate ancestry relation, or family background information because of lots of workloads, all-day routine. And that’s the main reason they have less time for family members. In this case, we are losing the past ancestry relation with their grandparents or previous generations.
