As 2019 draws to a close and I sit in a flat in Balmain overlooking the Sydney harbor in Australia, I’m happy to report that I was able to get the whole Gorp the Goblin trilogy book trailers completed. Having a video for marketing purposes is a valuable asset for a publisher/author. I’m looking forward to 2020 and hope to…

Gorp: Goblin Janitor has a Book Trailer
It is with great excitement that I’m happy to announce LJR Publishing has its first Book Trailer. They are much like movie trailers, but instead promote novels.

Winterfest 2019
Another weekend and another event at my bookstall. This time was Winterfest 2019 in Hawkesbury, NSW outside of Sydney, Australia. This was also my first time to have all my new banners and signs.

Supanova 2019
Last weekend I attended the Supanova Comic and Gaming Con in Sydney, Australia for the first time as a vendor.

Last weekend, I attended Ironfest 2019 for the 2nd time. Last year, was my first time running a book-stall ever. A little has changed in that year.

Gorp 3 Update
So yesterday, I saw a very rough draft of the Gorp 3 novel book cover, “Gorp: Defender of the Realm”. It’s by the same artist who has done the previous two and it looks amazing! Of course, with any work of art and interpretation, there were changes to be made, modifications, and things that need to be added. But the…
