My Rabbit Room compadre A.S. Peterson’s debut novel will release soon (end of November!). The cover was revealed yesterday to well-deserved applause (Evie Coates, another Rabbit Roomer, designed). I love the cover, it feels old, and I am very much looking forward to the book.

Pete (as he is better known at the moment) has basically been about the business of starting up a new publishing house, Rabbit Room Press. This will be the debut, full-length fiction offering from RRP and it looks to be a stalwart flagship.

Rabbit Room Press, for now, is a small, independent press. This means that Pete has to think of clever ways to help offset costs. He has settled on the idea of a patronage, and offers some limited edition, and first edition, hardware for those with the vision and generosity to support the start-up and launch his book. It’s an opportunity to invest in something special. In ten years when A.S. Peterson is a house-hold name and Rabbit Room Press’ stock is trading on the New York Stock Exchange, you will feel that warmness of the heart that comes from blazing trails and supporting worthy ventures.

You can find out about Tier 1 and Tier 2 (with a limited edition companion book) patronage at Pete’s website.

I am for this kind of thing in general, and for Pete in particular.

Check it out.
