FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
A Cast of Southern Fried Characters Animates Gar Fish & Long Gravy, Published by Outskirts Press
Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated body, mind, spirit and new thought book from Chamblee, GA, author Alexander Devereux.
July 15, 2010. Denver, CO, and Chamblee, GA - Outskirts Press, Inc. has published Gar Fish & Long Gravy: Memoirs of Southern Sensibility by Alexander Devereux.  The author's most recent book to date is a 6 x 9 paperback in the body, mind, spirit and new thought category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble.  The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/alexanderdevereux was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.
Growing up poor in the small town of Vicksburg, Miss., Alexander Devereaux didn’t have much materially, but there was no lack of remarkable personalities around him -- each of whom left an indelible imprint on his life. Gar Fish & Long Gravy collects the stories, insight, tragedies, and uproarious wit of an unforgettable cast of characters.  There’s Grandmama Lia’, whose hard-won wisdom on life, love -- and mistresses -- is dispensed in her kitchen to her beloved grandson, sometimes over Johnny Walker Black.  There’s Ms. Peaches, who raises chickens in her ramshackle hut, yet might be one of the richest people in town.  There’s Big Daddy, an imposing hulk, but his massive frame hides a vulnerable past and humiliating secret.  And there’s Ms. Annie Laurie, a fabulously wealthy white woman who never had children of her own, but her love rains down on young Alexander. And that’s just for starters. Based on real-life experiences, Gar Fish & Long Gravy is about the mistakes we make, the loves we share, and the stories we tell each other that make us who we are.  It is the touching story of a boy who ultimately breaks free of the poverty and abuse of his extended family, yet never forgets the important lessons he learned along the way. As Grandmama said, “If sense were common, everybody would have it.”
94 pages in length, Gar Fish & Long Gravy: Memoirs of Southern Sensibility is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the body, mind, spirit and new thought category.  With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Gar Fish & Long Gravy meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $12.95. Additionally, Gar Fish & Long Gravy can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press Direct bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/bookstore. ISBN: 9781598006759 Format: 6 x 9 paperback cream SRP: $12.95

Hello Sylvia!

I'd be interested in being featured on your show. I'm a Christian romance author, and my first book, The Price of Trust was released in May of 2010.

I watched a few episodes of the Lit Chick Show, and thought you did a great job. Thank you for the opportunity.

Amanda

Dear Marsha,

 

Great book trailer! I'm going through a separation at present--my husband cannot give me a valid reason as to why he wants out, so you can imagine how I must be feeling. Your book certainly resonated with me. I would love to have you feature on the show. Please email me so I can send you the guidelines: sylvia@sylviamassara.com

 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Cheers, Sylvia
