Dean Cycon
Author of Finding Home (Hungary, 1942)
Q. What inspired you to write Finding Home (Hungary 1945)?
A: While researching WWII for another article, I came across references to an incident in Poland where villagers attacked Jewish concentration camp survivors who were trying to return to their homes. Several returnees were murdered. I was so shocked by the fate of the Jewish returnees that I needed to know more. As I dug deeper into the academic literature, trial transcripts, and news reports, I found many similar incidents around Eastern Europe after the war had ended. How could I be as worldly and educated as I am and not have known about this? I decided to stop the other novels I was working on and create a fictional quilt that brought all of these stories to life.
We publish two ways.
Traditional Publishing
- This option is normally only for seasoned writers (with or without an agent) with superb work and a verifiable track record of sales and marketing success. The term traditional means that the author will not pay for any development costs or fees, and will typically be offered an advance payment on royalties.
Hybrid/Co-Publishing
- This option is best for emerging writers with high-quality work desiring a professional-level publishing experience. Writers accepted into our Emerging Author Program are positioned to land a traditional deal on subsequent books. Those best suited for this program are motivated and collaborative, and receive the same level of editing, creative development and marketing as our traditional authors.
