News: Last update: 8/1/08

Nonfiction releases, New York Times best-selling authors, and convention appearances . . . oh my!

August is overflowing with news and excitement as summer starts to come to a close.

Medallion Press is pleased to announce the debut of a nonfiction line, with the first title available in stores August 2010. This new imprint will cover areas of motivation and strength, self-help, and autobiographies. This will be the seventh imprint for Medallion Press, adding it to the family of fiction imprints, including the new Medallion Masterpiece Collection, which will unveil its first title in November 2008.

The first release of our nonfiction line will be an autobiographical look at the life of Dawn Schiller, a woman who, as a teenager, became wrapped up in the bizarre life of legendary porn star John Holmes, and the drugs, beatings, and murders that soon consumed her world. In The Road Through Wonderland, Dawn will give a recounting of her life, starting with her childhood, leading through her relationship with John Holmes, and through the struggle she encountered to overcome her past. In 2003, Lion’s Gate released the film Wonderland, a look at the life of John Holmes and his connection with the Wonderland Murders. Actor Val Kilmer, who played John, and actress Kate Bosworth, who played Dawn, will both contribute a foreword to the book.

Helen A Rosburg makes the transition over to nonfiction in November 2010. A historical romance author, Helen is also an heir to the Wrigley family fortune. She will give insights as to what life was actually like growing up as a Wrigley and show how the blessings and hardships of her life made her the woman she is today. Her life stories will inspire and capture the hearts of any reader.

Coming in January 2011, the first motivational-and-strength nonfiction title will be released by Staci Boyer. Staci is an award-winning master personal trainer and fitness educator. In her book, she will use personal stories to reflect on life lessons learned and how they apply to her life now. She will offer areas for the reader to reflect and look inside themselves to help them grow and improve their own quality of life. As Staci has said, “Strength is not defined by the absence of moments of weakness, but more in your ability to overcome them,” and this will be the theme of this motivating and inspiring book.

We are excited to unveil these new nonfiction titles and are looking forward to those that will follow. Be sure to check back often for news and updates on this new imprint.

This month we are also welcoming a new author to the Medallion Press family, New York Times best-selling author Heather Graham, writing as Shannon Drake. Her novel Emerald Embrace is set to release in February 2010. In this historical romance, Shannon Drake tells the tale of Martise St. James and the mysteries that surround an ancient castle. While trying to unlock these mysteries, Martise must battle with her feelings for a late friend’s husband, a man she longed to destroy. The book will include chapter illustrations by Yevgeniya Yeretskaya. You can check out some samples of her work at www.pixieswhimsy.com. Also look for Heather Graham’s illustrated romantic masterpiece, There Be Dragons, to hit store shelves in Sept ember 2009.
