One for the good guys: My friend Jim Hynes has found a publisher for his new novel, Next. Little, Brown is the house that had the good sense to snap up the book. Jim sez:

And Little, Brown, of course, is a legendary American publishing house, which, at one of the scale, published Emily Dickinson, and at the other end of the scale, is now publishing, well, me, Mr. Ghost-Cat-Office-Zombie-Magic-Finger Boy. Probably best not to dwell too long on that dialectic.

Jim’s referring to some of the memorable themes of his previous books, which include Publish and Perish, The Lecturer’s Tale, and Kings of Infinite Space. Buy! Read! Enjoy!

    Heck, you can’t expect me to hide your light under a bushel, can you?
