MAXIM GUNN SOUNDS OFF AGAIN! ‘THE SERPENT FORCE’ NOW AVAILABLE IN AUDIO!

Pro Se

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Think about a man: suave, hard, devil-may-care, an ex-agent, the best that ever was. Call him MAXIM GUNN. And then think about the evil that such a man could face, the group that could move against the truest heroes. That is the nemesis Maxim Gunn faces in MAXIM GUNN: THE SERPENT FORCE by Nicholas Boving now a top quality audiobook from Pro Se Productions produced by Radio Archives!

The alignment of all nine planets will bring the Serpent Force, a mysterious power known to the ancients, to its maximum effect. One man has the secret and must be stopped. Once more Maxim Gunn is recalled from retirement as a favour to the Prime Minster. He follows a trail of murder and mayhem: a dangerous trail that leads him to a murderous attack by hit men at Stonehenge, a horrifying escape from a labyrinth and a pair of hunting panthers near the Parthenon in Greece, a duel against a gladiator in a moonlit arena, and what seems certain death by drowning in the cenote at Chichen Itsa in the Mayan ruins in the Yucatan. An earthquake, unseen powers, duels with the forces of evil, and time running out leave Gunn little time for sightseeing. It's a race which must be won, for the consequences of failure are unthinkable. Gunn chases down each lead that seems to link the great mystical and holy sites of the world with the force, focussing it on one final site and on one unstoppable day and time. But time is running out, until, with only hours left the location of the centre of power is revealed. A time, a place, two men, and the fate of the world at stake. Can Gunn get there in time and can he stop it. If anyone can do it, it's Maxim Gunn.

PAUL BISHOP’S FEY CROAKER RETURNS! ‘KILL ME AGAIN’ DEBUTS FROM PRO SE PRODUCTIONS FEATURING NEW TRUE CRIME SHORT STORY!

Pro Se

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

In 1994, author Paul Bishop released the first novel in a series featuring Fey Croaker, an LAPD detective like no other.  Pro Se Productions is proud to announce that the first Croaker novel, KILL ME AGAIN, is available in a special print and digital edition and also contains a new short story by Bishop based on his own career as an LAPD police officer.

“To have the Croaker series,” says Tommy Hancock, Pro Se Editor in Chief, “is more than just a feather in Pro Se’s cap.  Paul Bishop is one of the best authors in mystery and crime fiction and his experience as a police office adds so many levels to the stories he writes.  Even though originally published in the 1990s, the Fey Croaker novels still resonate today, both in terms of Croaker as a strong female character and in relation to working in law enforcement.  Paul pulls no punches and delivers a no holds barred mystery in KILL ME AGAIN.  And just as special and truly an honor for Pro Se, Paul also includes a short story never before published from his own career. This makes KILL ME AGAIN not only a great novel for mystery fans, but it’s also a bit of history being preserved and presented for readers to enjoy.  Can’t miss with that.”

With the unit she leads facing a run of unsolved cases, Los Angeles homicide detective Fey Croaker is under intense pressure to solve the murder of a woman with multiple IDs, a million dollars in cash hidden in her dryer, and only brand new clothing and furniture in her brand new condo. When fingerprints inexplicably reveal the mystery woman was murdered eighteen years earlier in San Francisco, Fey feels her career crashing down around her. 

Complications in the twisted case compound when investigation reveals the woman's husband—the man convicted of killing her the first time—was released on parole only weeks before she was killed again. However, the victim has many more surprises for everyone involved—especially for Fey, who finds herself a suspect when the investigation takes a turn for the deadly.

Having outlasted three dead-end marriages, a severely abusive upbringing, and the relentless resentment of her male colleagues on the force, Fey is a hard-bitten, cynical, and driven survivor. With her integrity, freedom, and life on the line, Fey Croaker is about to unleash all the anger inside her—and nobody better get in her way...

Featuring an atmopsheric cover by Keith Birdsong and cover design and print formatting by Antonino Lo Iacono, CROAKER: KILL ME AGAIN is available now at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Croaker-Kill-Again-Paul-Bishop/dp/1535093498/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1468001394&sr=8-3&keywords=croaker+kill+me+again and Pro Se’s own store at www.prose-press.com for 15.00. 

This special edition of the first Croaker novel is also available as an Ebook, designed and formatted by Lo Iacono for only $2.99 for the Kindle at https://www.amazon.com/Croaker-Kill-Again-Paul-Bishop-ebook/dp/B01HZXQIH8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468000514&sr=8-1&keywords=croaker+kill+me+again and for most digital formats via Smashwords at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/648319.

Four previously published Fey Croaker novels will be published over the next year by Pro Se Productions. Plans are also in the works for Bishop to pen a new Fey Croaker novel as well as there to be a Croaker anthology featuring other writers’ takes on Fey.

Clint Adams is known far and wide for his expertise with a gun, but The Gunsmith is just as legendary for his prowess with women. Both come into play when a comely young doctor approaches him to help her grandfather, an aged sheriff who is in over his head.

Adams agrees, but rides into town with his own plan- to infiltrate the gang of outlaws threatening the town and tear it apart from within.  

 

Finding the sheriff to be more stubborn and in need of help than he thought, The Gunsmith realizes that saving anyone will most definitely mean bullets and blood. Surrounded by the cantankerous sheriff, deadly cutthroats, and a beautiful redhead named Glory, The Gunsmith finds himself staring down gun barrels and standing face to face with Death.

Pro Se

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Pro Se Productions, an innovative Genre Publisher, turned its attention to younger readers, bringing in fans under the age of eighteen, with the creation of their YOUNGPULP! imprint in 2013.  The first series to debut in that line, COMPANION DRAGONS TALES, now debuts its third volume of exciting action packed tales. COPPER’S CHOICE by Nancy A. Hansen is now available in digital and print formats.

“The dragons are back!” exclaims Tommy Hancock, Editor in Chief of Pro Se Productions.  “COMPANION DRAGONS TALES VOLUME THREE: COPPER’S CHOICE introduces readers to yet another denizen of the world Nancy Hansen and other authors have conjured up to amaze and wow us.  And this one, moreso than the previous volumes, not only deals with whimsical and dangerous adventure, but also mirrors decisions that I think we all have to make, young or old, in our lives in a way that both teaches and excites.  Nancy’s writing style pulls a reader in and doesn’t let go!”

When Nigel Gillette, renowned action/adventure author and wizard-at-large, wins a small dragon familiar in a magical game of chance, he is initially excited. Copper Dragon however, is not so thrilled. She has a shameful and abusive past, where she was trained harshly and used for illegal activities. Copper has serious trust issues, and so she refuses to believe that any human can be as friendly and generous as Nigel seems. She decides to strike out on her own, but quickly finds that the world is a cold and cruel place when you are only a small dragon who has always lived as a tame creature.

So Copper has to make a choice. Should she return to the life of crime that she knows so well, or can she learn to trust this new human companion, who seems to have her best interests at heart? From the premiere chocolate producing world of Bulgosia to the famed magical resort island of Atlantis, Copper Dragon goes on a journey of self-discovery, meeting other fantastic creatures and getting into all sorts of difficult and sometimes dangerous situations. Along the way, she will learn not only to trust her own instincts, but to use those skills she has honed to her best advantage, in hopes of earning the life she deserves.

Complete with chills and thrills harkening back to the classic Pulps, THE FIRST SYNN introduces the first sibling duo in Pulp history, ready to take on whatever horror flies their way! Years ago Gideon Synn tried to save Faith Bloodstone from a deadly family curse in upstate New York. He failed and Faith died at the hands of a mysterious blood drinking fiend. Synn ran from his failure and became a world traveler, joining the French Foreign Legion and eventually becoming a mercenary in China. Now, years later he has opened a security firm with his sister Kathy. Charity Bloodstone, Faith’s younger sister, comes to him for help against the same curse—the supposed vampire ghost of her ancestor, Justice Bloodstone! According to legend, Charity has only one week to live! Several people have been killed by what appears to be the undead Justice in ways that suggest a supernatural cause. The Synn siblings are drawn into a whirlwind of terror and evil as the mystery of the vampire murders comes closer and closer to fulfilling the curse. Has Gideon found love with Charity only to lose her to dark forces? Who are the armed thugs that have attacked the siblings? Can Kathy Synn keep her brother out of trouble long enough to solve the mystery of the Bloodstone Confidential?

GENRE FICTION TAKES FLIGHT! “ALTERNATIVE AIR ADVENTURES ” DEBUTS FROM PRO SE PRODUCTIONS!

Pro Se

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

One of the most intriguing genres in Classic Pulp Fiction focused on Aviation, the machines that conquered the skies and the people who flew them. Pro Se Productions makes its mark on that sub genre with an anthology that tackles Aviation fiction in tales without airplanes or other ‘normal’ air borne apparatus. ALTERNATIVE AIR ADVENTURES is now available in print and digital formats

“People are fascinated by flying,” says Tommy Hancock, Partner in and Editor in Chief of Pro Se Productions, “always have been. ALTERNATIVE AIR ADVENTURES continues that fascination by changing the status quo somewhat, something that New Pulp does a lot these days. Imagine that planes and typical helicopters and the like simply never developed. They never happened. How, then, would man have ever left the ground? Three of the best authors in Genre Fiction today tackle that question in this collection, and the stories are simply awesome. Combine that with the absolutely gorgeous cover by Michael Hegedus and this is a must have read!”

FLIGHT! An ability that has always fascinated mankind and for centuries, a mystery that eluded those who sought it most! But, what if the discovery of such things as the airplane or helicopter had never occurred? What if the path to man gaining his own wings went other directions? Those worlds are imagined and come to life in Pro Se Productions’ ALTERNATIVE AIR ADVENTURES! Join authors Kevin Findley, Davide Mana, and Gene Moyers as they fly the wild and wonderful, sometimes unfriendly skies in machines from their minds. Heroes and villains combat one another high above the ground in ships that have only lived in dreams…until now. Climb aboard and strap in for ALTERNATIVE AIR ADVENTURES from Pro Se Productions!

Featuring a breathtaking cover by Michael Hegedus and print formatting and book design by Antonino Lo Iacono, ALTERNATIVE AIR ADVENTURES is available now at Amazon athttps://www.amazon.com/Alternative-Air-Adventures-Kevin-Findley/dp/1534734260/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1467033785&sr=8-1&keywords=alternative+air+adventures and Pro Se’s own store at www.prose-press.com for 10.00.

Pulp and Noir collide in Greg Norgaard’s popular THE COWBOY DETECTIVE: A MATTER OF TERROR.  This hard hitting digest novel is now available as a top quality audio book produced by Radio Archives!

Terror in the City… From the moment a crazed Nazi Doctor set foot in Chicago, he knew he was in the right place to finish the experiments he had started but never completed. His work began at a death camp, a camp of horrors in which he reigned with his own brand of terror. As soon as he committed his first act against an unsuspecting woman in the city, he knew there'd be a price on his head, and he didn't care. For this Nazi had the most beloved memory a man can have . . . the feeling of exhilaration as another's fear turns to panic.

Below the rough underbelly of the city, there exists stalwart Detective Glenn Stroud. An efficient, dangerous, and committed cop who has always sought the evils that roam his town and threaten those closest to him. With his skills with a gun, his partner E Dent, and a souped up Pontiac Chieftain, Detective Stroud will search for the maniac while following the clues. His determination will lead to the end of this kidnapping and torturing psychopath . . . that, or he’ll lose everyone dear to him. THE COWBOY DETECTIVE: A MATTER OF TERROR by Greg Norgaard.

SWASHBUCKLING ADVENTURE LIVES! ‘ONE FOR ALL: TALES OF THE MUSKETEERS’ DEBUTS

Pro Se

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Three Musketeers.  A name made famous by Alexandre Dumas, a tale focused on four men of unerring honor, ultimate skill, and unquestionable bravery.  Now, Pro Se Productions, an innovative Publisher of Genre Fiction, harkens back to the era of the Musketeer, sharing adventures of other such men who bore the title.  ONE FOR ALL: TALES OF THE MUSKETEERS is now available in print and digital formats.

“There are heroes,” says Tommy Hancock, Pro Se Productions Editor in Chief, “that are simply iconic, that are part of the fabric that defines heroic fiction.  The Three Musketeers as written by Dumas definitely fall into that category.  So much about the concept of these honorable men with blades defending one another, their King, and their country rings true with readers of Genre Fiction, even today.  ONE FOR ALL: TALES OF THE MUSKETEERS is an opportunity to look beyond the four characters we all know to the other men who bore the name.  The Musketeers had a long history and we have three of the best writers possible bringing that wonder to life in these pages, while getting to release a little bit of their inner Errol Flynn.  Fun, action, and honor from the first page to the last.”

Masters of the Blade… Heroes without Compare… Legends in their own Time… These are The Musketeers! One For All: Tales of the Musketeers is a swashbuckling return to tales of the group of special soldiers made famous by Alexandre Dumas and in innumerable adaptations. Yet, what of Musketeers beyond their four famous literary brethren? Adventurers, men of honor, rogues, and dedicated makers of right alike wore the crest of the Musketeer throughout the organization’s storied and rather long history. And authors David J. Fielding, Stacy Dooks, and Richard C. White now peel back the curtain to reveal the glistening blades and daring do of other Musketeers, men who truly stood the stead to protect good from evil, who fought, bled, and died proving each one of them lived the motto- One For All! ONE FOR ALL: TALES OF THE MUSKETEERS. From Pro Se Productions.

Featuring a fantastic cover by Jeff Hayes and print formatting and book design by Antonino Lo Iacono,  ONE FOR ALL: TALES OF THE MUSKETEERS is available now at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/One-All-Musketeers-Stacy-Dooks/dp/1534734392/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1466604007&sr=8-1&keywords=one+for+all+musketeers+fielding and Pro Se’s own store at www.prose-press.com for 10.00.

SUPERHEROES LIKE NO OTHER- ‘SINGULARITY RISE OF THE POSTHUMANS’ DEBUTS!

Pro Se

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

A cutting edge Publisher, Pro Se Productions announces the release of an anthology that redefines Superhero prose.  Featuring top authors in Genre Fiction and New Pulp today,  SINGULARITY: RISE OF THE POSTHUMANS is now available in print and digital formats.

“It’s always fantastic,” says Tommy Hancock, Editor in Chief of Pro Se Productions, “when a book comes along that has every likelihood of being a genre changer.  SINGULARITY: RISE OF THE POSTHUMANS is such an anthology.  Taking the core concepts at the heart of tales of Superheroes and the evil they face and blending them in with aspects of Cyberpunk, Noir, and more, the tales in SINGULARITY look at the concept of Superheroes through an extremely multifaceted, complex prism and every page is a winner!”

The Technological Singularity Event left the world’s governments trembling. War ravaged the land as humans faced off with the Nanite Army of Fire. Eventually the world was plunged into darkness.

When the world regained its senses technology had been reduced to the level of the 1800’s. The world governments no longer existed, until one Dr. Fulbright began rebuilding English society in New Southampton.

Fate seemed to intervene when Dr. Fulbright’s lab exploded and carved a giant crater in the center of the city. With Dr. Fulbright dead, the struggling city was left without guidance or authority.

Authority was regained when brutal Queen Anne anointed herself the new city monarch. Anne quickly established a brutal regime bathed in blood and violence.

In light of death and oppression, the people of New Southampton seek saviors. In the darkness, some have heard the call for Revolution. Beings that have crawled out of the time of the Singularity to give the people hope. Many call these harbingers of salvation the Posthumans.

The Posthumans have risen from the ashes. SINGULARITY: RISE OF THE POSTHUMANS. From Pro Se Productions.

Featuring an atmospheric cover by Rick Johnson and cover design and print formatting by Antonino Lo Iacono, SINGULARITY: RISE OF THE POSTHUMANS is available now at Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Singularity-Rise-Posthumans-David-Michelinie/dp/1533534209/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1464660581&sr=8-2&keywords=singularity+michelinie and Pro Se’s own store at www.prose-press.com for 15.00. 

This revolutionary anthology is also available as an Ebook, designed and formatted by Lo Iacono for only $2.99 for the Kindle at https://www.amazon.com/Singularity-Rise-Posthumans-David-Michelinie-ebook/dp/B01GDBF0ZE?ie=UTF8&keywords=singularity%20michelinie&qid=1464660626&ref_=sr_1_1&sr=8-1 and for most digital formats via Smashwords at https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/640100.

State of Pro Se Productions-5/16/16-from Tommy Hancock, Editor in Chief

Pro Se

In the past, I have taken occasion to send an email to staff and creators of Pro Se Productions, essentially a ‘State of Pro Se’ message.  Although this one will be shorter than the previous addresses of the same sort, it is probably the most important one I’ve made thus far, and therefore want to share this with our fans as well as all the hard working souls that make up Pro Se.

As I’ve stated before, the last two years plus have been a roller coaster for me personally, for my family, and as a result of that, for Pro Se.  Not to dwell, but to explain, I began experiencing major health issues in late 2013, due first to diabetes and then to congestive heart failure.  Through every bit of that, Pro Se has continued, sometimes more active than others, but still we have not only maintained, but we have grown and now, thanks to the perseverance, patience, and talent of those that are the real reason Pro Se exists, we are a well established publisher with a great future ahead.

Having said that, though, there are things that are behind, projects that have gotten derailed.  That, as I’ve stated before, is fully my responsibility, regardless of the reason.  Many writers have contributed works that, due to my absence, have yet to be published and should have been already.  Some projects, most notably the Single Shot Signature Series, have lagged, in large part due to my illness, but also due to other factors.  And although my health issues are not completely 100 percent over yet, I take this time to make the following statement:

As of May 17, 2016, Pro Se Productions will be moving forward aggressively with its continued mission to publish the best in Genre Fiction and New Pulp, as we have been able to do since opening our book publishing doors in 2011.  What this means is that we will be tackling every project we have yet to complete as quickly as we can and with as much vigor and forward movement as possible.  It also means we will be evaluating every single project, looking for what we can do to not only make it the best it can be, but also determining what must be done to get the works that have been waiting their turn for a long time put together and out the door. 

I will be in touch with every single author with a work pending with Pro Se Productions and our active artists in the next several days. This will be a practice that I will continue on a regular basis of some sort.  We are a company and we are a community within ourselves and yes, even a family to a degree.  A family that I am honored to be a part of and one that I fully intend to take care of, and of utmost importance is moving what we have ready to publish along.

With that in mind, it must be said that, looking at our backlog, not every book can come out in the next week, month, or even year. What will be going on the next few days will establish a schedule, a plan, although flexible and fluid, for getting all the projects that we have on tap out as quickly as possible.  And the creators and staff behind these works are definitely a part of this process, as it is their creativity, their imagination that we have been given charge of.

Notice, I have said ‘we’ frequently.  There was a time where I was the ‘we’ behind Pro Se, but we passed the point long ago where that was possible. Even had I remained completely healthy, Pro Se has become a company so large with so much potential that no single person could expect to handle it.  And thankfully, I have been fortunate enough to find people who have a passion, a fever for what Pro Se stands for, what the company produces to come in and, even with me kicking and screaming at times, help take Pro Se to another level.  From Kristi King-Morgan in the often thankless, yet essential position of Director of Corporate Operations to the multiple editors working with Her, our interns, and of course, our fantastic creators, Pro Se Productions will be moving forward, no longer at a staggered pace affected by the health of the crazy guy behind the curtain, but at a steady trot, bringing You the best in Genre Fiction for many years to come.

Give us the next few days to tie up loose ends, to push every project from where it is, and to prepare for what is to come.  Trust me, it’ll be worth all the waiting everyone has done.

And sincerely, Thank You all.

PRO SE PRODUCTIONS ANNOUNCES FIRST TWO NEW IMPRINTS FOR 2016 AND BEYOND

Pro Se

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

An innovative Publisher of New Pulp and Genre Fiction, Pro Se Productions revealed today a plan to add several imprints to its already impressive lineup and publishing catalog.  The first two new lines to debut in late 2016/early 2017 are Pro Se Xtreme and ProSeReal.

“We have,” states Tommy Hancock, Partner in and Editor in Chief of Pro Se Productions, “a strong line up of novels, digest novels, and anthologies rolling out this year, and actually well into 2017 and perhaps even further into the calendar.  That, combined with the in process relaunch of the Pro Se Single Shot Signature Series later this month and into June, might seem like we’ve got enough to do.  And, in a way we do, but we also have a duty to keep producing what our readers want and also to provide opportunities for writers to tell the sort of tales they may not have a chance to elsewhere.”

To that end, Pro Se Productions will not only be debuting imprints we’ve worked on awhile in the coming weeks, but also brand new imprints, lines within our catalog seeking specific types of stories.  From author centered imprints to themed ones, like Pulp Obscura, Pro Se has utilized the imprint model well and will continue to do.  For the first of what will likely be several announcements, Pro Se Productions will begin taking submissions for digest novels, that is works of approximately 30 thousand words, for the ProSeReal and Pro Se Xtreme imprints.”

ProSeReal is an imprint that will focus on stories from multiple genres that are grounded solidly in reality.  The intent of this imprint is for writers to produce works that, while being tales of action and adventure, read as true to life as possible.  No weird westerns in ProSeReal, but westerns where readers feel the grit in their teeth and the lead in their bellies are welcome.  Hard boiled mysteries, noir crime tales, and fast paced romances all have a place in ProSeReal as long as the authors endeavor to take the readers into the stories and make them as true to life as possible.

“The experience,” says Hancock, “that we want people to have when reading a ProSeReal digest novel is one of true immersion, where readers are thrust into the story, a story that if the circumstances were right and such, could happen to them.”

Pro Se Xtreme will focus on the types of adventures—reminiscent of those of the ’50s and ’60s -- that readers felt they needed to hide from their parents. Those books may or may not have quite lived up to the lasciviousness of the cover images, but they sure felt like they did. Strippers, white slavers, pimps, hookers, porn kings and queens, and more. Only, this time, expect the black and white insides to live up to the four-color covers. Readers will encounter private dicks, hapless everymen (before everypeople would have been considered a term), con artists, spies, thugs, victims, and killers all wrapped up in adventures that test their limits and push their boundaries—that will be the norm for the books of Pro Se Xtreme. It’s time for readers to have a reason to hide steamy pulp stories under their mattresses again, and that reason is Pro Se Xtreme!

Noted New Pulp Author Sean Taylor will be the managing editor of the Pro Se Xtreme imprint.

Submissions are now open for proposals for digest novels in both of these imprints.  Authors interested need to prepare a proposal outlining the story to be told in the novel, a proposal comprising of a minimum of three paragraphs that clearly outlines the entire story.  If the proposing author has not written for Pro Se Productions previously, then a four page writing sample must be included with the original proposal.  All proposals should be sent to submissions@prose-press.com.

Once a proposal is accepted, a deadline will be given and a contract will be issued upon receipt of the initial completed draft of the manuscript. Terms for said contract will be worked out upon proposal acceptance and will be on an author to author basis.

The intent for each of these imprints is, if proposals are made and accepted, to publish the first digest novel of each in October 2016.  Pro Se Productions intends to publish a new digest novel in each of these lines ever 2-3 months following their debuts.

For more information on these imprints, contact Hancock at editorinchief@prose-press.com or Pro Se Productions’ Director of Corporate Operations, Kristi King-Morgan at directorofcorporateoperations@prose-press.com.
