A series is born!
After publishing Ann de Forest‘s collection of essays WAYS OF WALKING that drew worldwide interest, NEW DOOR BOOKS began to think about a series of books with walking as a theme. Then author Janice Deal sent them a wonderful novel, THE BLUE DOOR, in which the protagonist takes a long walk that turns into a spiritual odyssey.
That fanned the spark into flame, and “WalkAbout Books” is now a reality.
NEW DOOR BOOKS have other walking-oriented books in the pipeline, and THE BLUE DOOR launches on 22 April . Janice Deal will be one of Ann de Forest’s guests on Walking America on 16 April.
Writers can submit the first 50 pp. of their manuscripts via New Door’s Submittable portal (which refreshes the first of every month).
Meanwhile, ‘they’re headin’ out for a walk.
