I’m very excited to announce that Memphis-based author Susan Cushman joins the Dogwood Press team with her forthcoming novel, Cherry Bomb. Watch for it in October 2017 and get ready for a highly-atmospheric Southern novel set in Georgia in the early 1980s that will remind you in some ways of Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code, with its religious imagery that plays a big part in the plot. You talk about characters that will get under your skin and stay there — make a note of this one and be watching for it!

| Welcome, Susan! Can’t wait to launch your novel!
The John M. Floyd Dreamland tour is off to a great start after a fantastic launch at Lemuria Books in Jackson last month. This afternoon (November 4) John will be at The Bookshelf in Ridgeland, MS, from 3-5 p.m., at Books A Million of Meridian tomorrow (beginning at noon) and on hometown turf on Sunday afternoon in Kosciusko, MS at Amanda’s for the annual Christmas Open House. You absolutely don’t want to miss out on Dreamland.
