For Immediate Release:

Announcing Lost Boy Press – Open for Business!

The Home of Daring Fiction

Phoenix, AZ (September 2020) – Lost Boy Press is proud to announce the official launch of our independent publishing house for brave and bold works of fiction.

Lost Boys Press is offering readers edgy, experimental, irreverent, and playful books that employ fresh storytelling in a sea of boiler-plate fiction.

We offer thought-provoking titles that push boundaries to deliver a unique reading experience you can’t find anywhere else.

SCHEDULE OF RELEASES:

Lost Boys Press will publish two books in 2020 – both available October 31st, 2020:

A Map to the Stars by Ashley Hutchison: A creative nonfiction memoir and exploring the endurance of self during a cycle of abuse committed by those who are supposed to love you most. Part prose, part poetry—all primal scream. A tale of survival, letting go, and learning how to pick up the pieces again.

Ghost River by Chad Ryan: A magical realism/horror novel, this dark epic explores a cursed town in the middle of the Sonoran desert where evil takes root beneath the sand. Dark, edgy, and mature, this work examines the human condition in a horrific and accursed land where suffering is the only salvation.

We are currently NOT accepting new author submissions (yet), so stay tuned to our website: https://lostboyspress.com/submissions/ to learn more.

Hi! We’re new here.

We’re proud to announce the founding of Lost Boys Press!

LBP isn’t your traditional publishing house. We seek to elevate daring, talented voices in the independent book scene. Our titles are brave, irreverent, playful, and edgy.

We seek to push boundaries in fiction by releasing titles that may not fit into corporate/traditional publishing models. In fact, we dare to be different!  

That’s what’s cool about being the little guy—you get to experiment without a room of middle-people involved.

It’s our belief there’s room for risky books and risk-takers in a saturated market filled with boiler-plate fiction and we’re here to serve some up goodies up to you.

Short term, we’re going to publish some amazing books.

Long term, we’re going to dominate the world (maybe?) by signing and working with other adventurous authors, and collaborating with other like-minded presses who seek to lift up quality, independent story-tellers.

Lost Boys Press was founded by longtime friends, business associates, and creative-partners Ashley Hutchison and Chad Ryan.

Schedule of Releases (2020): 

To get started, we’ll be releasing two books in 2020:

1. A Map to the Stars – Ashley Hutchison –  Part prose, part poetry—all primal scream—this autobiographical novella of a childhood lost to horrific abuse from an unlikely source explores the devastation of the loss of self.
2. Ghost River – A Novel – Chad Ryan – A grimdark horror epic, following a group of prisoners living a cursed legacy in a ghost town where nothing beneath the surface is as it seems.
