Tilton House Press Crowdfunding Campaign

October 19, 2022 By Tiffany Sunday

Hello Readers,

As I wrote in my previous blog posts, I’ve had to republish To Be Human – Always and Insatiable Consumption of Being.

With inflation and the shortage of book paper, the production cost of publishing has increased. Since we moved from a print-on-demand to a traditional style of publishing, each of the new titles had a print run of 100 copies.

Therefore, to assist with the change’s setup costs and support the publisher of my books, Tilton House Press – which I launched in 2018 to gain complete creative and publishing control over my books, we (my team and I) have launched a crowdfunding campaign.

As a micro business owner, I have a talented team of editors and book designers. I am proud of the work we do and our small team.

Please share our crowdfunding campaign with family and friends who love supporting book authors and small independent book publishers.

Any support is greatly appreciated! All donors receive VIP status and receive new book discounts and future swag.

As always, keep reading,

Tiffany

New Book Release – Insatiable Consumption of Being Second Edition

October 13, 2022 By Tiffany Sunday

Hello Readers,

I’m excited to share the release of the second edition of Insatiable Consumption of Being. As I wrote in my previous post, the decision to switch to a new distributor and book printer resulted in creating second editions of Insatiable Consumption of Being and To Be Human – Always.

Working with Lynne Knight during the edits and creation of new work for this book was amazing. I gained so much as a writer, and discovered a talent for flash fiction and short stories. The transformation that occurred during the editing process is profound.

This edition includes new poems, edits to the existing poetry, and new flash fiction stories. A few poems from the original publication were not included in the second edition. For the first time, I wrote a couple of poems about being dyslexic.

The book is available from our new distributor Itasca and will be available soon at Barnes & Noble and independent bookshops.

A Silver Lining Leads to a New Beginning 

September 29, 2022 By Tiffany Sunday

Several years ago, a stranger offered advice as we waited for our haircuts. We were talking about life and the problems we were encountering. Then, as his name was called, he turned to me and said, “I discovered there is always a silver lining. The fun is finding it.” To this day, I can recall the memory and his advice.  

For me, 2022 has been an interesting and challenging year, both professionally and personally. So in April, I started encountering problems with my book distributor, which only compounded my stress. The company stopped paying royalties, books disappeared, and readers didn’t receive their orders. 

After weeks of researching a solution, I realized the only way to solve the problem was to change distributors and republish all my poetry collections. All reviews and work I had done would disappear. However, I knew continuing with the distributor would only make matters worse.  

The advice I received so long ago kept looping in my mind, telling me to search for the silver lining. Finally, weeks passed, and I knew I had to take a chance and change distributors. The best part of this transition was being introduced to a brilliant new editor and book designer. Little did I know, she would be my silver lining. Thinking back, I never thought I would say, “I am glad” the previous distributor created so much stress and then failed to correct the problem, but I am. Because if I had not made the change, I would not have met my new editor. 

Taking risks isn’t easy because we are unsure of the future, the unknown. Listening to the advice I received, I searched for the silver lining. I glazed across the ocean of possibilities and imagined a better path. So often, we become caught up and trapped by the drama of the problem that we miss the silver lining. 

Even as a writer, I struggle to think of the words or phrases that could describe the transformation that occurred working with my new editor – she has helped me become a better writer and is now an invaluable part of my writing process. 

I am excited about the new editions: To Be Human – Always and Insatiable Consumption of Being. The books also honor my editor’s artistic skills as a book designer. 

Both books include new content, design, and editing. In addition, new flash fiction stories were added to Insatiable Consumption of Being. 

The first editions of my poetry books have been removed from the market, and Proper Grey Areas will not be re-released as a second edition. So instead, I am writing a new book focusing on fiction and dystopian short stories. 

To Be Human – Always Second Edition is available now from Itasca and will soon be available at independent bookstores and Barnes and Noble. 

May you always find a silver lining, 

Tiffany

New Book Release from Tilton House Press – To Be Human – Always by Tiffany Sunday

November 12, 2021 By TiltonHousePress

Tilton House Press announces the release of To Be Human – Always by Tiffany Sunday. This is Sunday’s sixth book and third poetry collection.

Book Description

If you could change your life and live how you want to live, would you dare do it? Even though others seek to convince you to stay the same.

These soul-searching questions were the catalyst for this thought-provoking and inspiring book, To Be Human – Always by Tiffany Sunday. In her third poetry collection, Sunday ponders these questions during her search for her authentic self while defending her humanity from the invasive nature of digital technology.

Sunday’s poetry reflects a new awareness gained after peeling away layers of obsolete conditioning. For Sunday, nature offers solace, inspiration, and mental space for self-discovery. Her love of the outdoors is evident in the book’s nature-themed poems, which provide subtle wisdom from her observations. While contemplating questions about life and what you seek to achieve, Sunday’s poems and writings offer guidance for finding the courage to be you.

To Be Human – Always is available at online retailers and independent bookstores. For media inquiries and speaking appearances, please contact Ann Wilson, Ms. Sunday’s assistant at info at dillon 5 dot com.
