NaNoWriMo Time Again
We love to support NaNoWriMo authors – several of our current and upcoming publications began as NaNoWriMo efforts. (Not familiar with NaNoWriMo? Check it out here.)
Currently, we know that our authors Harry Heckel and Wayland Smith are working on new NaNoWriMo projects – best of luck to them!
You can look at Harry Heckel’s blog for more on his effort – he has also been quoted on the WordPress blog about his NaNoWriMo philosophy (twice, so far – here and here).
Great job, all you NaNoWriMo participants!
Visit Us at the Hanover Book Festival
If you happen to be in the Mechanicsville, VA area this weekend, Blue Oranda Publishing will have a booth at the Hanover Book Festival.

Balefire and Brimstone Update
Balefire and Brimstone had a slight delay in printing – when we received the proof, the cover art was too dark. We’ve made some adjustments and are awaiting the second proof. We expect that the print version will be available in approximately one-two weeks. Thanks for your patience! In the meantime, Balefire and Brimstone is available on Amazon for Kindle and on Smashwords for other e-book formats. It should be making its way through the distribution channels to other e-bookstores in the next two weeks or so.
Website Relaunch
Welcome to the new Blue Oranda Publishing website. We’ve imported the information from the old site, but we’re hoping to make this a more user-friendly experience. Of course, please let us know if you have any problems with the new site.
Keep reading!
Balefire and Brimstone Published
Balefire and Brimstone (Book 2 of the Krueger Chronicles) by Harry Heckel is now available on Amazon and Smashwords. We expect it to be available in most other e-book sores by the end of July. It will also be available in print in early August.
A Pearl for Her Eyes Available Now
A Pearl for Her Eyes, the second book in the Jake Conrad Mythological Mystery Series by Brad A. White, is now available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and many other e-book stores.
We previously announced that A Pearl for Her Eyes would be available in print. That should be happening in August – and it will include Servant of the Muses, which has never been available in print.
Congratulations, Brad!
Read an E-Book Week
Read an E-Book Week is coming to a close, but you can still get three of our books free through the promotion on Smashwords, and a fourth for half off, until March 9.
In the Service of the King and Souls of the Everwood by Harry Heckel and Servant of the Muses by Brad White are both free – use coupon code “RW100” at checkout. To get In My Brother’s Name for $1.50, use coupon code “REW50” at checkout. Enjoy!
New Jake Conrad Book Coming Soon
Jake Conrad is coming back with an all new mythological noir mystery! The new book is A Pearl for Her Eyes, and should be available by the end of March. We’re excited to announce that A Pearl for Her Eyes will also be available in print.
