Martha Phillips was the winner of the 2007 ThomasMax "You Are Published" Contest at the Southeastern Writers Association Conference/Workshop. Martha's Written On A Rock will be released in May, 2008.

ThomasMax goes hardcover for the first time with Bubba Goes To Alabama, A Spiritual Journey by Kenneth David Mobley, former writer for performers with NBC's "Saturday Night Live." ThomasMax has entered the field of psychology with the releases of two books, Dr. Lynn Mary Karjala's Understanding Trauma and Dissociation and a collaboration of Dr. Karjala and Dr. Mary M. Gallagher on Taming Trauma Beasties, an illustrated book designed to be read to children who are being treated for trauma. Wonder if we'll soon be seeing them on Oprah? Randall Arnold's The Resemblance was entered in the 11th annual South Carolina Book Festival. His book did well in wholesale sales in its first few weeks of release. Randall was honored with a full-page interview by The Albany Herald. Paul Dunn has finished a collection of short stories about his railroad experiences but has decided to delay publication until later. Paul's A Stroll Through Fitzgerald, GA, In The Forties has sold more than 1,000 copies. Richard Rene Silvin's I Survived Swiss Boarding Schools continues to sell consistently at Amazon.com and with other internet sellers. Silvin has held several private book signings, with proceeds being donated to charity. He has written a sequel, about his adult life, originally published by ThomasMax but not offered for commercial sale. Walking The Rainbow has now been resold to another publisher, and a third Silvin book, Noblesse Oblige, is in print from ThomasMax but also not for commercial sale. R. Preston Ward's The Moulin Huge, his first book, has sold well through such internet sellers as Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble's website in the early months of 2008. Harry Rubin's sequel to his book, Chasing Pirates, entitled The Counterfeit War, is in print, and a third novel which should be available in June, 2008. Harry's been busy promoting his first two novels, as evidenced by the photos below:
