It gained some attention from readers.

Oh, okay.
Paul LevinsonHOST
So did you enjoy working with your editor? I mean, I assume, you know, you're not going to say, no, I hated my editor.

I would point them at a book called The Midnight Front.
David MackGUEST
It's the first book of my dark arts trilogy from Tor Books.
David MackGUEST
It is secret history, not alt history.
David MackGUEST
The idea is that behind the real history of World War II, what we didn't know is that the Nazis had real sorcerers working in that ceremonial magic tradition of the Renaissance era, summoning demons, harnessing demons.
TJ KluneGUEST
That book, so imagine, if you will, you're like this indie author, and that book is like your, you're called up to the big leagues.

TJ KluneGUEST
And Tor was like, "We, we would love to do this book, too," and I said, "Okay." [laughs] "See what happens with it." Murmuration came out around- 2016.
TJ KluneGUEST

John ScalziGUEST
If you want to have people find your work, and read your work, and talk about your work, and all that sort of stuff, you have to engage in the business end, or at the very least, deal with people who are going to deal with the business end with you.
John ScalziGUEST
And in the case of someone like me, who does work with a traditional publisher, I work with Tor Books, which is part of Macmillan, you are going to have to deal with what is... what are you doing? And can we sell it? Right.
John ScalziGUEST
And I will give an example of this many years ago when I first started off after old man's war was bought.
John ScalziGUEST
I said, you know, they said, do you have something else that you want to promote? And I had this one book called agent to the stars out there.
