The Nemedian Chroniclers #22 [WS16]
REHeapa Winter Solstice 2016 By Lee A. Breakiron A WORLDWIDE PHENOMENON Few fiction authors are as a widely published internationally as Robert E. Howard (e.g., in Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, and Yugoslavian). As former REHupan Vern Clark states: Robert E. Howard has long been one of America’s stalwarts of Fantasy Fiction overseas, with extensive translations of his fiction & poetry, and an ever mushrooming distribution via foreign graphic story markets dating back to the original REH paperback boom of the late 1960’s. This steadily increasing presence has followed the growing stylistic and market influence of American fantasy abroad dating from the initial translations of H.P. Lovecraft’s Arkham House collections in Spain, France, and Germany. The growth of the HPL cult abroad has boded well for other American exports of the Weird Tales school, and with the exception of the Lovecraft Mythos, the fantasy fiction of REH has proved the most popular, becoming an international literary phenomenon with translations and critical publications in Spain, Germany, France, Greece, Poland, Japan, and elsewhere. [1] All this shows how appealing REH’s exciting fantasy is across cultures, despite inevitable losses in stylistic impact through translations. Even so, there is sometimes enough enthusiasm among readers to generate fandom activities and publications. We have already covered those in France. [2] Now let’s take a look at some other countries. GERMANY, AUSTRIA, AND SWITZERLAND The first Howard stories published in German were in the fanzines Pioneer #25 and Lands of Wonder ‒ Pioneer #26 (Austratopia, Vienna) in 1968 and Pioneer of Wonder #28 (Follow, Passau, Germany) in 1969. -

The agents highlighted with a bigger indent are known to work with self-publishers or publishers in helping them to sell subsidiary, film, foreign, and reprint rights for books. All 325+ foreign literary agents (highlighted in bold green) listed here are known to work with one or more independent publishers or authors in selling foreign rights.

Don't take 23 agents word for it. Find the 24th that believes in you and your book. When querying agents, be selective. Don't send to everyone. Send to those that really look like they might be interested in what you have to offer. -
Scotland's Creative Writing Centre 2016 Programme
SCOTLAND’S CREATIVE WRITING CENTRE 2016 PROGRAMME WWW.MONIACKMHOR.ORG.UK MONIACK MHOR Something is dealing from a deck of cards, face up, seven, a week of mornings, today’s revealing the hills at Moniack Mhor, shrugging off their mists. A sheepdog barks six fields away; I see the farm from here. Twelve-month cards, each one thumbed, flipped, weathered in its way – this the eighth, harvest-time, a full moon like a trump, a magic trick. It rose last night above this house, affirmative. I sensed your answer – hearts. Or a single hour is a smiling Jack, a diamond, or a spade learning a grave; charms or dark lessons. Something is shuffling; the soft breath of Moniack Mhor on the edge of utterance, I know it, the verbs of swifts riffling the air and the road turning itself into the loch, a huge ace into which everything folds. Here is the evening, displayed then dropped to drift to the blazon of barley, bracken, heather. Something is gifting this great gold gathering of cloud; a continual farewell. CAROL ANN DUFFY WELCOME Dear all, Welcome to Moniack Mhor Creative Writing Centre, based in the beautiful highlands of Scotland. Perched at 1000ft, just a stone’s throw from Loch Ness, the centre commands dramatic views of the mountain ranges of Ben Wyvis and Glen Strathfarrar. Our cosy converted croft is an inspiring atmosphere for doing what we love best, writing. 2015 was a thrilling and creative year in the life of the newly fledged, independent Moniack Mhor. We’ve been visited by many writers from all walks of life, each sharing a different story, breathing energy into the walls of the building. -

This Is Her Story Lynda La Plante
SEPTEMBER 2017 Good Friday: Before Prime Suspect there was Tennison ? this is her story Lynda La Plante From the creator of the award-winning ITV series Prime Suspect, this is Jane Tennison's story, from rookie police officer to fully-fledged detective. Description Before Prime Suspect there was Tennison... Every legend has a beginning... During 1974 and 1975 the IRA subjected London to a terrifying bombing campaign. In one day alone, they planted seven bombs at locations across central London. Some were defused - some were not. Jane Tennison is now a fully-fledged detective. On the way to court one morning, Jane passes through Covent Garden Underground station and is caught up in a bomb blast that leaves several people dead, and many horribly injured. Jane is a key witness, but is adamant that she can't identify the bomber. When a photograph appears in the newspapers, showing Jane assisting the injured at the scene, it puts her and her family at risk from IRA retaliation. 'Good Friday' is the eagerly awaited date of the annual formal CID dinner, due to take place at St Ermin's Hotel. Hundreds of detectives and their wives will be there. It's the perfect target. As Jane arrives for the evening, she realises that she recognises the parking attendant as the bomber from Covent Garden. Can she convince her senior officers in time, or will another bomb destroy London's entire detective force? 'La Plante excels in her ability to pick out the surprising but plausible details that give her portrayal of everyday life in a police station a rare ring of authenticity' Sunday Telegraph About the Author Price: $32.99 (NZ$36.99) Lynda La Plante was born in Liverpool. -

Chapter 1 Foundation knowledge in forensic odontology Jules A. Kieser1, †, Jane A. Taylor2, Zaf Khouri3 and Maurice Churton4 1 Faculty of Dentistry, University of Otago, New Zealand 2 Faculty of Health and Medicine, University of Newcastle, Australia 3 New Zealand Society of Forensic Odontology, New Zealand 4 Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon (Retired), New Zealand I’m not young enough to know everything. J. M. Barrie, The Admirable Crichton, Act I (1903). Introduction Forensic odontology has been variously described as ‘the application of dental science to the administration of the law and the furtherance of justice’ [1] and ‘that branch of dentistry, which in the interest of the law, deals with the proper handling and examination of dental evidence and the proper evaluation and presentation of such evidence’ [2] and ‘the overlap between the dental and the legal professions’ [3]. The dates of these references show us that forensic odontology has been devel oping as a specialist discipline for the last 50 or so years. Once the remit of the merely interested or community minded and conscientious, dentists now require rigorous training and commitment to practise within the profession. The discipline is recog nised as a speciality of dentistry in a number of countries including Australia, and has a dedicated training stream within the Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia. To the general community, forensic odontology is most frequently associated with personal identification of the deceased, and gains significant publicity at the time of disasters, natural or manmade, that claim many lives at a single point in time. The actual scope of practice of forensic odontology is considerably broader than this.COPYRIGHTED In addition to human identification MATERIAL forensic odontologists are also involved in the examination and assessment of bite mark injuries, orofacial injuries following assault or trauma and child abuse injuries; age assessment of both living and deceased persons and civil cases involving malpractice and fraud allegations.
