CLIFFHANGER BOOKS

Life is just full of stories – sad stories – happy stories – jovial stories – and stories about stories. Heck, the world is just one big story. Now some stories are rather lengthy in nature, whilst others are rather fleeting in tone. But whatever the case may be, Cliffhanger Books will always have some thing for you. Intrigued? Then please, by all means, read on...


Publish on Amazon Kindle


Now who is www.cliffhangerbooks.com? Well, they are a Texas based publishing house, specializing in print and digital anthologies of genre short stories. In earnest, they have dedicated themselves in helping out budding authors to find a place to share their tales of fancy. As you name a genre, and Cliffhanger has something on offer: Crime – Science Fiction – Adventure – Humor – Romance – and Taxidermy (OK, maybe not the last one... yet).

How did www.cliffhangerbooks.com come to be? In 2008, two writer/editor’s – Evelyn Welle and Kevin Hosey – both decided to launch a company that would give new and veteran writers a place to share their talented genre work. Cliffhanger was its name, and adventure was its game. However, that soon changed when they agreed to make their first book a paranormal romance anthology. Yet they kept the name and branched out into other genres of literature. And another thing that they also changed was Evelyn’s role in the company - as she had to focus some of her time on her new position in a marketing firm - thus allowing new co-editor, K. Stoddard Hayes, to join the gang.

For the time being, Cliffhanger is only choosing to focus on short story anthologies - in order to expose a wider range of writers and stories in a shorter time. And in addition to this, Cliffhanger is also allowing their platform to publish works that they think will appeal to a larger audience.

Please note; Paramourtal went on to be nominated as one of the Best Romance Anthologies of 2010 by theromancereviews.com.




What have www.cliffhangerbooks.com released so far? Recently, they have published three anthology tiles, all of them packed to the hilt with everything that an avid reader would ever crave for, such as:
  • Gods of Justice: A collection of ten superhero-themed stories, which includes works from DC Comics writer: Ricardo Sanchez; and Star Trek author: Dayton Ward (click here to download press-release).
  • Danyen’s Gift: This first book in the Shards of Nihrel trilogy, chronicles the legend of the fallen star, Nihrel, whose Shards are scattered across the world of Orennia, thus prompting adventurer, Danyen, on a quest of a lifetime (click here to download press-release). 
  • Paramourtal: A collection of ten powerful and suspenseful paranormal romance stories, which will tantalise both the mind and the heartstrings (click here to download press-release).

  




Any insights for prospective authors / readers? Always. Cliffhanger has recently provided advice on writing short stories in an online writing blog, http://cliffhangerbooks.blogspot.com. All writers - new and established - are welcome to submit their work so that Cliffhanger can give each story an equal opportunity to appear in one of their books. Cliffhanger does acknowledge that there are some extremely talented writers out there who just have not had a chance to show off their creativity yet - they hope to change that - as illustrated in...





In the months to come, Cliffhanger Books will be releasing numerous collections of vibrant, exciting, and spine-tingling stories, all of which will have you perched on the very edge of your seat. So Welcome to the Edge! We hope you enjoy the ride.
