Industrial Myth & Magic and ISCSpress announce a new venue for promoting literary events: LiteraryPR.com

LITTLETON, MA – October 28 2007 - ISCSpress and Industrial Myth & Magic are pleased to announce a new service for consolidating and broadcasting literary press releases. Press releases for literary events tend to get lost amid the general clutter and noise of modern life. The new press release website, www.LiteraryPR.com, will enable semi-automated press release distribution and consolidation through a web interface.

“We noticed that press releases from small presses were getting lost in the noise,” said Steve Glines, Creative Director at Industrial Myth, “and most small publishers and authors shy away from conventional publicity outlets because of cost and the overwhelming dominance of Corporate Publishing.” “We created literarypr.com as a way to help promote our publishing clients and lesser known authors,” said Doug Holder, Editor and Director of Marketing at ISCSpress. “We believe that the next generation of exciting writers and poets will be found among the smaller publishers and self-published authors,” Holder continued, “This venue is for them.”

This Philadelphia phenomenon has been an ongoing delight to playwrights, actors and the theater going public for over 10 years. It.s a combination of improvisational theater and tag-team writing. Writers, directors and actors appeared at the Cambridge Center for Adult Education on Friday September 21 and begin writing a series of short plays. At 3:00 PM on Saturday rehearsals begin and the plays were performed at 8:00 PM that evening.
.It was the most fun I.ve had in years,. Said Steve Glines, editor-in-chief of ISCSPress. Gloria Mindock, editor of the .ervenáarva Press imprint said, .I.m thrilled to be participating in live theater again.. Mr Glines went on to say that he expected to sponsor another GOT event in January.
