Syntagma Media has just launched a great new blog by Steve Newman, Commissioning Director at Humdrumming, a new publishing house based in Stratford Upon Avon — Shakespeare and RSC country.

Steve starts off by telling us about the signing of bestselling American author, Allan Weisbecker, whose memoirs, Can’t You Get Along With Anyone? will be published by Humdrumming, probably next year.

He also heralds the long-awaited republication of Denys Val Baker’s joyous autobiography series, beginning with The Sea’s in the Kitchen this week. Be first to buy the book here.

There’s also an incipient deal underway with a very big-name British author. I had a hand in this at the early stages, but I’m not at liberty to name the name until a final deal has been struck.

All very exciting stuff. Stay tuned for more information.
