This just in…

There have been problems at Aspen Mountain Press for a while now.

~ The owner, Sandra Hicks, had some kind of personal crisis and left the company in the hands of four managers, who were trying to bring the company around. They were in the process of doing this when Sandra returned.

~ On 6 August 2011, the four managers resigned. I don’t know if it was a disagreement or if the company is too far gone or what, but them’s the facts.

~ I’ve heard from more than one author that they haven’t seen any royalties for some time, and the royalty checks they have received are very low, which is a shame as this company started on a burst of enthusiasm five years ago, and many of the authors who used to be with Triskelion signed on.

~ They recently signed some interesting new authors for the Aurora Regency line, too, although their definition of Regency seems to include the Wild West of America.

Consider yourself flashed.
