		<description><![CDATA[Fire: Elemental Anthologies #1 Tyche Books and Rhonda Parrish are proud to announce a brand new elemental anthology series, and to kick things off they are opening to submissions for the first anthology in the series—Fire: Demons, Dragons and Djinns. The ability for people to control (to some extent at least) fire has long been held as one of the major events that contributed to human evolution, but when fire eludes or escapes our control it is also one of the most destructive forces on earth. Associated with passion, power, transformation and purification, fire is a ferocious element with an unquenchable appetite. We want to explore the many facets of this beautifully furious element and the creatures associated with it so Fire: Demons, Dragons and Djinns will be filled with stories about every kind of fiery creature you can imagine, not only those listed in the subtitle. We’re looking for phoenixes, ifrits, salamanders, lava monsters and fiery beasts no one has ever heard of before. And of course this anthology will not be complete without at least one demon, dragon, and djinn! Rights and compensation: Payment: Flat fee of $50.00 CAD and a paperback copy of the anthology. In exchange we are seeking first world rights in English and exclusive right to publish in print and electronic format for six months after publication date, after which publisher retains nonexclusive right to continue to publish for the life of the anthology. Open submission period: June 1, 2017 &#8211; August 15, 2017 Length: Under 7,500 words No simultaneous or multiple submissions. Submission method: Submittable! You will be able to upload your story on the Fire Submission page. Expected Publication Date: Summer 2018]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Happy Anniversary to Us! It has been five years since Tyche Books officially came into being. Five years. Wow. In those five years, we&#8217;ve accomplished a lot. We have published thirty-two books (with four more scheduled for 2016 and a full slate for 2017). We have been nominated for awards. We have won awards. We have worked with both new and established authors, artists, and editors. Needless to say, we&#8217;ve been busy. To celebrate our past accomplishments and those still to come, we&#8217;re going to have some fun events scheduled over the coming twelve months. First of those events will be a Book Social at Variant Edition Comics &#38; Culture in Edmonton on September 25, 2016. Featured at the Book Social will be Edmonton authors Krista D. Ball, E.C. Bell, Billie Milholland, and Rhonda Parrish AND Australian author Amy Laurens. (For those of you with copies of Ride the Moon, bring it to the store to have it signed by Amy, who wrote the story &#8220;Cherry Blossoms&#8221;.) Good books, good people, and good food&#8211;it should be a great afternoon! Although we&#8217;re featuring books from our local authors, there will be other books for sale, including our new releases! In the following weeks we&#8217;ll have more information about various activities and book events. In the meantime, we&#8217;ll see you in a few weeks in Edmonton!]]></description>
