Have I told you about Mid-World Arts? I’ve been running a writer’s group for over four years now. Last December, a couple of us got together with an idea. We were sick of the way traditional publishers treated writers like crap. Plus, we knew there was an audience for our stuff, but maybe not wide enough for a publisher to bother with.
We decided to self-publish, and also help each other out while we did. Mid-World Arts is not a company, it’s not a traditional publisher, we call it an “authors’ studio” where writers can come together and share resources and cross-promote each other’s books.
The great thing about it for you the reader, is that you don’t have to suffer some of the crap often found in self-publishing. You don’t have to worry about buying a book that’s got massive spelling errors and shoddy grammar, because we check and re-check each other’s books before we publish.
I am proud to tell you about my fellow Mid-World artists because I know they write great books, and they helped make my books better.
Right now, Mid-World consists of myself (James L. Wilber), Stephan Michael Loy, and Dick Thomas. Steve already has an apocalyptic thriller called Last Days and Times, and an excellent short story collection called HarmonicRes. Plus, he has two more books coming out this month. Dick is hard at work on his paranormal horror story Ghostvision, which will be available by August.
Please take a moment to check out these great authors. If you like real people and not corporations providing your media, please read and review our books. If you want to help others make their dreams come true, please reblog this post.
